rather flood the caverns with magma and remove the beastys then after its drainned set up traps for the cave spiders than risk the millatery -if their any dust monsters etc-

and giant cave spiders are only efficient when they web over cage traps to capture deamons and forgotteb beasts.

Militarily. Otoh, the tailoring industry would benefit from a few captive GCS.

Can a previous overseer clear a few points up for me.

1) Why do we have a hall of doors below the main entrance?

2) Is there a way to seal the main entrance, if so, where's the lever?

Thanks.

The bottom entrance should just be the magma expunge system.  As to which lever closes the door, use the Notes function and check the room of levers on the same level as forges and dorms.  One of them should be marked.

Quick, check him for rum! The bastard's probably spirited some off to his lair office, to act as pleasant refreshment as his evil scheme unfolds!

Several are marked with such-and-such bridge. I was worried about pulling the wrong one.

Aright all, I'm tossing in the hat early. I'm moving from Upstate NY, to Seattle tomorrow. I won't have access to anything more powerful then a very, very old laptop for the foreseeable future. Good luck my future colonizers of the deep!

Well on that note, the next person can take a year and a half of time if they chose.

Not required though, just makes it easier to determine when the turns change.

Narqulie, its your turn.

I'd like to be dorfed as Vector Qwerk. preferably miner. I would ask for a turn for overseer, but I'm already on the list for two other fortress plus I'm managing my own succession fortress as well! :P

Holy clusterf**k Batman!
This place has certainly changed in a few years.. :D
I will try to get the mood and general order around the fort sorted out a bit, and then begin the expansion of the underbelly underway, maybe start moving some of the forts workings under as fast as I can.
I don't think any outside threat will be a problem anymore, with the entrances in the condition they are.  :D

I'll get to writing my first post later today.

EDIT:
I'm torn thinking what I should do first.. I'm planning an expansive, lets say full move of the workforce to the levels just above the breach, to have the workforce closer to the constructions within the maws of hell, but this poses a) a huge logistical problem and b) an ever growing danger should a demon breach our defenses.

I wouldn't move the entire fort down there, but I do think a burrow with all the necessities would be very useful. 

On a side note, we're running low on the overseer list.  We could use some more (preferably fresh) players to our humble abode.
Also, after Narquilie's turn, I might edit the save a bit for dorfing purposes, unless its taken care off before then.

If the rest of the turns on the current list go quickly, I could take a turn as long as it started by like the 26th or so, but I'll be too busy to play any DF starting on the 29th.
