Dear Urist McSettlers,

Your group, "The Abbey of Merchants", is hereby permitted to embark to the location (hereby entered into our records as the "Fortress Name") of "Axeslaughter the Light of Ancients".  Divinations have proven this location to have ample soil, plentiful metal deposits, flux stone deposits, a river, and no aquifer; thus, this location is considered suitable for fortress building.

You are NOT allowed to obtain the assistance of non-dwarves in your settlement under any circumstances.  Recent disputes with elves over trade of wooden satues, and the theft of the artifact "Lustwater the Danger of Ages" by kobolds, as well as a war with the half-human, half-goblin nation "Hellmouth Nether-War", has made us change our mind.  You are permitted to trade, but any attempts to settle must be met with extreme prejudice and axeblades.

You are allowed to bring three (3) Copper Picks from our armoury.
You are allowed to bring two (2) Copper Battle Axes from our armoury.
You are allowed to bring one (1) Iron Anvil from our armoury.
You are allowed to bring one (1) Iron Short Sword from our armoury.
-- Requests for further military equipment will result in flogging.
-- Requests for artifacts will result in flogging, and then beating.
You are allowed to bring twenty (20) Plump Helmet Spawn from our storehouse.
You are allowed to bring four (4) Cave Wheat Seeds from our storehouse.
You are allowed to bring four (4) Sweet Pod Seeds from our storehouse.
You are allowed to bring twenty (20) Plump Helmets from our storehouse.
You are allowed to bring twenty (20) units of Dwarven Ale from our storehouse.
You are allowed to bring twenty (20) units of Dwarven Beer from our storehouse.
You are allowed to bring twenty (20) units of Dwarven Rum from our storehouse.
You are allowed to bring twenty (20) units of Dwarven Wine from our storehouse.
-- Appropriate containers for drinks and foodstuffs will be dispensed at the storehouse.
-- Do NOT attempt to con our storekeeper out of barrels. 
---- Attempts to do so will result in flogging, beating, and then stockading.
You are allowed to bring twenty (20) Tower-Cap logs from our stockpile.
You are allowed to bring one (1) male Dog from our animal pens.
You are allowed to bring one (1) female Dog from our animal pens.
You are allowed to bring two (2) female Kittens from our animal pens.
You are allowed to bring one (1) male Chicken (Rooster) from our animal pens.
You are allowed to bring one (1) female Chicken (Hen) from our animal pens.
-- Do NOT request a war animal or exotic animals.
---- Attempts to do so will result in being assignment to feed our troll.
---- Any and all equipment and clothing will be redistributed before assignment..


Signed,

Several alligators in a three z-level deep river are annoying my starting group.  I'm gonna have to make a crossbow and assign my leader (currently a swordsdwarf, thus the iron short sword to start with-- this is a savage neutral territory if I remember correctly) to kill them somehow.

A pack of badgers attacked my area's alligators.

It's like a cockfight, except instead of chickens, it's badgers and alligators-- and thus more win!

seeing that you brought exactly 20 of each drink reminds me of something i'd read when i just started out, and keep doing even now, almost without thinking about it. if you bring 21 of a drink, instead, you wind up with an extra barrel with just the 1 drink in it. nice if you want to start out with extra barrels, just in case

Yes, for drinks always embark with a multiple of 20 and add one more.  You get a free barrel like that.

But then you get flogged, beaten, and stockaded!

Dear Urist McSneakyPlans

No.

You do not. 

You are hereby required to show up to two (2) Dwarf Bureaucracy Reintegration Classes in the fortress of MURDERBROOK, on the Plains of Eternal Sorrow, by the end of Obsidian in 1053.  You are to sit in the BLUE CHAIR.

Failure to submit paperwork showing that you have attended this class will result in flogging, beating, and incarceration for every day you fail to submit paperwork showing that you have attended this class two (2) times, until the proper paperwork is submitted.

Failure to pass the classes will merely result in flogging, and then crundle-herding duty with no (0) pants on.

So yeah, havent' forgotten about this, just have been busy.  Lots of tests ya know.  A trig test (I'm a bit behind on taking my math classes because of the school being unable for some reason to determine what I was qualified for due to the state changing standardized tests too often) today, in fact, which I feel kinda good for (I've done more advanced math in my chemistry courses).
