I'll take year 4 and a dorf!

OK, got you on the list - might need to *poke* Andyman for dwarfing.

[andyman564]

i figure future megalomaniacs overseers will dwarf themselves when their turn comes around. if someone wants a dwarf but not a turn, i'd be happy to dwarf them in.

[Farmerbob]

Fair enough   

That way people can get the dorf that they feel best suits them.

[andyman564]

well i got spring done, updated my journal log.

EDIT: did you want me to dorf you as anyone Farmerbob?

Release the (stripped) goblins in a pit (make sure to separate the door from the pit using a bridge) and lock your military in with them.

It makes for easy training.

If you still have a dedicated farmer, make them me

I didn't consider dwarfing before, for myself, because I hadn't done community games before.

[andyman564]

will do, no update today, having to work weekends suck.

hm, i thought i'd posted and asked for a turn. seems the forums ate my post. so here i am, again, saying i'd like the next available turn, and i'll dwarf myself when my turn comes around.

Added - you have turn 5.

[andyman564]

summer update is up. hopefully i can get fall + winter up by tomorrow night.

you may want to reread the journal entry for the 1st of Hematite as well.

[nanomagnetic]

Just read the update -- man, what a brutal overseer

Also, out of curiosity, once our fort has gone to war with a civilization, there's no going back, right? There's no negotiating peace or anything else like that? It's all or nothing?

[andyman564]

no idea, i've never intentionally caused a war before, and i think it'll take more than one caravan to get the humans that pissed at us.

Listening to the reactions of others when presented with my fortress building style is both amusing and thought provoking

Domas was working too hard, and waited too long to start updating stockpile records.  The more you have the harder it is and the longer it takes to organize everything the first time around.

To make her go do her job as broker, you can simply change the precision level of bookkeeping to one she has already attained, and then she'll zip out of the office and be a broker - when done, turn the precision in bookkeeping back up and she'll grab a barrel of something with alcohol in it and get back to work.

Traders have no problems with stairs.  Back when they brought wagons, there were more restrictions.  Now that they use horses and warthogs and other beasts of burden, they handle stairs fine.

The outer building needs to be enclosed or the wall built at least one teir higher - otherwise goblin archers will eventually start shooting down into the animal pens and at whoever visits the well.

Can't wait to take a peek and see what you have done when the save hits dffd.  I haven't made a military since you could draft dwarves directly into soldier status as they immigrated in.

i like her the way she is, she's kind of an integral part of my journal right now.

i figured that one out when i saw the indoor trade depot... but i'm old school, still thinking in 40d.

i was thinking fortifications, so we could shoot back... and i think you missed the part about us having an indoor well now.

 and as you can see by my log, i've been too busy with everything else to really worry about reorganizing everything. so the fort will look pretty much as you  left it with some minor alterations/ additions.

One really easy way to get the humans really pissed at you is to kill their liason.

In a year they will siege.
