Possibly. But then again, some fortresses don't die, they just fade away into legend occasionally flooding the earth with magma. I think that's the saying anyway, might have mixed up some words.

[AnimaRytak]

Sorry sorry, major freakin' drama IRL.  The person who has my flash drive now hates me and refuses to talk to me.

Fortunately I had them email me the save before they went into raging bitch mode.
I'm going to try to finish this game, I've slacked off WAY TO MUCH.

before they went into raging bitch mode.

It's like the Ring of Power, corrupting anyone who possesses it.

[kefkakrazy]

The fact that a short while after instituting more severe "Slow turn" rules Anima comes up and himself gets bogged down with RL stuff... kind of an amusing coincidence.

That said, as fortress creator I suppose he can totally get away with whatever he wants, so carry on megabro! KILL 'EM ALL!

The moral of the story is, never turn off your ringer to sleep in.  Women will flip the fuck out.
Seriously, dafuq.

This is so absolutely true that any lingering unhappiness about the delays is completely banished.

17th, Limestone 781
After months of waiting for the magma to build up, of destroying crafts, and abstaining from booze, I’ve ordered the lever pulled.

Lava and fire spread through the center corridor.  Barrels in the nearby stockpiles are the first to catch fire.  The flow of lava is relentless and rapidly spreads fire through the tightly packed halls.  Some dwarves are trapped in their bedrooms; Atomic Avocado and The Mad Fool among them.
Within minutes, lava reaches the entrance to the dining hall, trapping the dwarves inside.  It pours into the lower levels, igniting clothes stockpiles and cutting off maintenance tunnels.

Atomic Avocado attempted to peak out into the hall way, lava floods his room and incinerates him in seconds.  The Mad Fool is close enough to hear his screams. 

That weird bastard starts lounging on his bed to the screams of agony.  I swear

NCommander is trapped between a pool of lava and a backdoor into Hell. 


The magma flows farther and farther, consuming everything.  But it is still not enough, more must die.

Terry disapproves of you destroying his domain.

[The Mad Fool]

Can I get a status check on The Mad Fool?  I'm curious what his mood is right now.

You're trapped in your room by magma, feet away from the immolated dead, and you're utterly ecstatic.

On a side note, TERRY IS PISSED.
Game is crashing every 10-15 seconds.  Emergency measures, emergency measures!

EDIT:
Measure's failed, oh god I don't think I can beat Terry

[The Mad Fool]

You're trapped in your room by magma, feet away from the immolated dead, and you're utterly ecstatic.

This is actually nicely in-character.  I like to imagine that he's laughing maniacally and possibly playing a fiddle.

The fact that he has actually killed a dwarf in the history logs makes that all the more possible.

The fact that Terry is liable to be the one to eat our fort now is perhaps the best possible ending we could have hoped for.

The game literally lasts about 3 seconds before crashing.  I may in fact, not be able to kill the fortress the way I had planned.

But I have contingencies.

[SanDiego]

Only in Deathgate people devise contingency plans in case the first self-destruct lever fails.
