I have decided to open up another one, so more players can try out the game.
Game Summary
Players play fortress mode simultaneously. Their actions are linked through self imposed restriction. These restrictions are imposed based on events at other players fortresses and your own. When one player has trouble, all players suddenly have a harder time trying to make ends meet. If you screw up, your dwarves are less willing to help you
Each player chooses a behavior restriction, One from each main item group lists, and 7 item types An item group would be something like "armor" an item type would be "Upper Body Armor" A behavior restriction would be an action a player would not be able to perform in game, use your imagination These are the items that your fortress will be making. (You do not actually have to make these in your particular game)
Choices can not overlap. If you choose leather, you can not also choose leather armor for example. Your list must be validated before play.
These restrictions come in waves based upon how badly things are going for that player.
Wave 1: Three item types.
Wave 2: Main item group A, Five item types
Wave 3: Both Main item groups, Seven item types, Behavior Restriction Activated
Main Item Group A
* Animals
* Blocks
* Finished Goods
* Furniture
* Gems & Decorations
* Leather
* Stone
* Wood
* Cloth
Main item Group B
* Meat
* Fish
* Plants
* Booze
* Weapons
* Bars
* Armor
* Ammo
Restriction Rules
Restriction waves are only imposed for the year after the conditions are met and expire once that year is finished.
When an Item has been added to the restricted list, it may no longer be produced or acquired through Dwarven trade. But may still be used if you have some in stock.
Restrictions do not apply to elven and human caravans
Economic: Economic rules are based on the rate of economic growth season per season. A difference of growth between fortresses of 25% or more will begin to enact wave 1 restrictions, and increasing every 25%
Year one is exempt from Economic restrictions
Year two has 50% restrictions instead of 25%
Closed borders: If your traders failed to make it to the depot (Resulting in no trade from that caravan), impose Wave +1 restrictions on all other players. You cant sell anything if the traders don't reach the depot.
Penalties:
If data is unavailable after first year, or for two consecutive months after the first caravan, wave 1 penalty will be imposed on the offending player for being disorganized. The other players will not be penalized for one of the others being disorganized. If you do not have a complete report by the deadline, you will be treated as if you are disorganized, and expected to have a full report on both years by next deadline. This penalty stacks for every incomplete report.
Violation of production order: Immediate Wave 1 restrictions on offending player per violation. Reduced by 1 waves per production orders that are met. This does not include trade bans. (I am aware that you can not always meet a production order, but you must at least meet half of them in a year to avoid penalty). Unmet mandates directly related to current restrictions will not be penalized
Death Penalty: If your mayor or baron dies, impose wave one on that player. If your duke or count dies, Impose wave two. If your monarch dies, impose wave three. Keep your nobles alive.
Fortress has crumbled: Wave 3, permanently for each lost player
Restrictions are assessed at the end of the year.
Playing Schedule and Updates

* Total Fortress Wealth

Screen shots are recommended.
