More like, "Holy Armok, they conquered, embarrassed, and colonized Hell!"

More like, "Holy Armok, dead people everywhere! A ghost stole my cat!

...

Oooo are those strawberries? :3"

actually, with the workshop and habitation levels of the actual fort mostly empty, they've been overrun by the 310 animals residing in Swordthunders.

Yes, those are ALL goblin and troll corpses outside.  Although you can't see it, that brown area has a set of stairs on either side that go up and over so I can block the outside with floor hatches.  Guaranteed siege-stoppers.

If you can, could you upload the map so we could all see it?

44 ghosts...Are they roaming in the fort or down in the depths?

They're roaming everywhere.  I'll post overview pics of Hell in a moment

The water is actually another two levels down, but this gives you a nice overview of it

Well he did receive the "The fortress attracted no migrants this season" message recently, which strongly implies that the migration function is still active. I think it's just a matter of having not exported anything in a while/caravans not even leaving the map alive.

No, I saw the dwarven caravan safely to the map edge the last time it arrived.  That's supposedly tied to getting migrants (they see your created wealth and go "holy armok, that place was loaded!" when they get home.

Well, you did at some point in the last 6-8 pages. I just read it...

edit 2: A minor -MINOR- ray of hope - the message "your fortress attracted no migrants this season" appeared.  For the first time in a loooong while.

There we go. Page 45. Well... I suppose it's not all that recent, but I would still count it.

ehehe, loving the little streak of blood running halfway across hell on level 2

About 80-90% of those are Doren's handiwork.  She's at 374 notable kills now by the way.

I can just imagine should the fortress ever start generating more dwarves again, the amount of goblin bone crafts you'll be throwing at elf traders;P

Elf: Sooooo..... We got this giant badger, and we liekz yo mo ethical works. Please don't kill us.

Dwarf: I'll trade you that badger for this 'ere mug.

Elf: wait but-

Dwarf: THIS HERE MUG.

Also have another. And another.
And another.

TAKE ALL THE DAMN MUGS

Let's take a look at what the masons have been engraving on the lakebed

A. Purring.  Maggot?  I cant decide if this is another proper insult to hell, or if Mego would be due a magma bath, were there any spare dwarves.


edit: THIS is goddamn hilarious, especially the name.  (It's also on what will be the lakebed)

Spoiler:  The Comedy of Scorching (click to show/hide)

Incidentally, that would probably be the perfect title for Necro910 and his love of magma

[Loud Whispers]

Aren't purring maggots just adorable! Plus, I think it's.... Both lol. Mego is trolling hell

[ThatAussieGuy]

Dwarf caravan arrived.  I gave them about 15,000 dB worth of stuff (mostly metal trap components like serrated disks), so I don't think I can do much else to encourage migrants except maybe grabbing the liaison by the throat and yelling "SEND MORE GODDAMN DWARVES TO MY HAPPY HELL-DWELLING PARADISE!"

Oh and I've completed most of the 'D' now. Well, designated it to be built, anyway.

Designations, also known as the largest part of the work in any construction project.

Welcome to Swordthunders!  Now go build floors and/or cut gems for me!

You... You want to wear a red shirt?


Been nice knowing you.

Wow, only read my dwarf now, love the characteristics. Do we have nobles?

By upload map I meant uploading it to the DF Map archive. But the pictures also work as well, very epic ones! And only now I wonder why in hell does hell not have any horrifying engravings except for the colorful pits and funny inhabitants?

Hows about the idea of opening hell to the light? Hell is now above ground 

Can't wait to see the SWORDTHUNDERS welcome sign.

Did that ages ago.  I used the 1x1 lit spot to grow strawberries, remember?

This is a masterwork image of a troll, surrounded by demons.
The troll is laughing.

I'm up to the 'H' now in 'Swordthunders'.  There's a goblin siege on my doorstep and humans have arrived to trade.  Hope I remember which one to offer goods to and which one to offer Doren and Shen to...
