[Impending Doom]

I'd like a dwarf by the name of Germayne. Any military, but I'd prefer marksman if you can. Either gender.

EDIT:
I'm not quite sure why or how this was posted.  Somehow the first post got quoted here.

Also, wtf is wrong with the humans?


I think this is grounds for war my fellow dwarves

I don't know, that might not be such a good idea...


The kittens have been assigned a small playpen. It should keep them warm and safe despite the many dangers presented by Deathgate:

Well, warm at least.

Hell, even though I've not done a succession fort before, I think I might actually put in a turn, though I'm gonna look around the fort first...

Edit: Umm, why when I load the save is the stone all messed up for me?

Er, you should just stick them in the cage near the butcher shop.  They'll grow and be safe, and conviently located for Doom Burger production pet adoption.  Plus they wont be pathing.

I don't think pathing is going to be an issue ... >_>

nvm, i think the issue for me is that you guys are using a graphics pack. Next question is either how to disable it for the save, or what graphics pack you guys are using. Oh, and also, I DEFINITELY want a turn; I just got a brilliant idea or increasing fortress security involving a long hallway, many traps, and lava. Can't forget the lava!

tryrar, there's a raws folder inside the deathgate save folder. delete that or replace it with one from your preferred graphics pack. If you use Ironhand's you might have to make a small modification to one of the files.

Also, I really like the bridge to nowhere. It's quite awe-inspiring.

Okay, pardon me, I must get into character.

It's Deathgate's tongue.  It's waiting for snowflakes.

Ah... well... I'm going to, ah, lengthen it.

Irony stood on the edge of the BATTEREY and wiped the sweat from her brow. The great machine was finally completed. Not that it had any purpose she could discern, apart from making an infernal racket.

Predictably, Noodle, the dwarf responsible for this contraption, had gone mad when it was finally completed. He was still going about his previous tasks, but his eyes had gone strange and from his mouth flowed a continuous stream of unintelligible babble. He hadn't taken a bath since the project started, and his beard was now a vermin-nest. She suspected there might even be roaches living in there. The very thought brought bile to her mouth.
   
Though she disliked the man intensely, there was no denying his mad plan had given direction and meaning to their lives. Without his overweening pomposityleadership, the fort would fall into chaos before winter.

Since no one else was stepping forward, Irony decided to take matters into her own, rather dusty, hands.

The fortress is in chaos. The old manager has lost his mind, there's a bridge to the sky, kittens are everywhere, it's three dwarves to a bed and all we have is wine. Which... is really good. But still. I need variety.

It falls to me to return some semblance of order to this place. To return us to the traditions of the mountainhomes.

Notes to self:

• Grow something other than plump helmets.
• Excavate some dormitories.
• Put the kittens somewhere "safe".
• Finish the dining hall, install wells, and decorate.
• Perfect the entrance.
• Think of something else something else to motivate everyone.
• Make sure noodle doesn't kill anyone.

Not another one! Now a Clothier has begun acting strangely, like a completely different person. She's now calling himself "Alkhemia".

Microcline, Microcline, Microcline! I'm sick of Microcline! One of the previous overseers put a microcline stockpile next to the masons. I must stop this madness at once.

.....odd. After copying vanilla raws into the folder(I don't use graphics packs) I keep getting a missing reaction definition error.

Try using the lazy noob pack.  They have an auto-switcher for tilesets and a savegame updater.

will do....after locating the link in the DF file depot, that is!
