A bit of a taster.


It had been a little over a year since Dakost had left the last fortress she would ever 'diplomacise' with for the nobles. It had been a strange and busy year, but in that little time she had decided to help them in what little way she could.


Hurried, secret, late night meeting lasted for almost an entire season, and then they were ready. Nobles were...done away with. The dwarves were better off. They were back to their roots, and she, the leader of the revolution, knew better than most of these dwarves. So naturally, she would be their leader.


Now if she could only remember the name of the fortress, to inform her comrades of their success...


But no matter what, she just couldn't remember...

Oh, well. It would come, in time.


A report came across her desk. One of her fortresses had come under attack from savage creatures from below. A quick message, and an appointment, later, and they would be back on their feet.

Nah, I see Dakost ias more of a toady. She is a coward who fears the revolution because she cannot comprehend any other way of life!

But whatever, I'm just suggesting :D

Oh, she just starts off with thinking "Hey, this will be a good idea." but reverts to the whole one person on top because she doesn't know anything else. :P

I'm going to have an RP post for each session, but for now I'm going to do a OOC post as well.



We're doomed.


We've got 6 goblins on the surface. They are currently killing every animal in sight, but they also got the migrants we just received. I think pretty soon we're going to get the "nobody wants to come to such a death trap" message soon. Once that happens, it won't be too long before we run out of people.

We've got a couple of open passageways to the caverns. We had a rat come up one. It won't be long before something worse comes, and our military has three dwarfs. Worse, when I started, we had a lot of dwarfs standing around in the meeting room, so it's all too likely they'll have lots of friends, which means we've got all the best conditions for a tantrum spiral.


I have to admit, if we had the wood for it, I'd build a danger room just so we had a squad which wouldn't die at the first sight of a forgotten beast.


Now, the six goblins on the surface consist of a hammer man, who from now on will be called Maxwell. Any Beatles fans will know what that means.

We also have five axemen, but we might be able to ignore one, if my surviving migrants can dismantle the bridge quickly enough.

If the animal was on the surface, it is probably dead by now.

Other bad news: kittens are breeding.

I've made it more of a communist society now.

Our only hope might be caravans, but iirc, we'll get a human caravan first, which means we might lose relation with them. That means more sieges.


Gentlemen, it's been great, but what we really need is a surface superweapon, and I've never done anything like a FAILCANNON or Operation: Frak the World.


I feel that these might be the final hours of Cuborator.

Well then, If we die we must turn back time. The fort cannot perish until 7 turns have passed!

Oh no! Will history repeat itself after all?  :o

Maybe the goblins are from the CIA?

If you get a chance, could you dwarf me as "Resnov"? Preferably an immigrant miner, but if there aren't any then a cheesemaker/farmer type will do.

So are we reverting to earlier, or what? Is the fort doomed? WHAT IS HAPPENING?

Only reverting if the fort falls under Dsarker.

Carpman, the goblins are the Gaxcists. They have recently had a movement of Goblin superiority and are trying to show the world they mean business. By striking locations as remote as Cuborator they hope to make it seem like they can hit anywhere.

Okay. Goblins have left, three of the migrants have survived. That's right, a month outside with Goblins didn't kill them.


I've started training two new squads. Not enough gear for specialised, so I'm going to train one as wrestlers.
