... It's actually quite dwarfy, if you think about it.

I think this version is more fitting.

Boards of Canada - Dayvan Cowboy. As heard in this equally awesome video of a glacial castle speed-painting. I mean that is just freaking cool.

In other news, the path of/dug into a glacier is an exceptionally terrible place to build ANYTHING. Th glacier will just shred and crush it. Slowly, but inevitably, and possibly in your own lifetime if it's actually built into it.

This is about as random and insane as it gets.

...The fuck did I just watch?

Also, the anthem for my forts would probably be something along the lines of this because it usually ends in disaster...

Once liquids are implemented properly, you could set up a mandatory test involving potential military dwarves swim through a sea of blood on their way through the testing.

Bay12 doesn't have moral event horizons, it has goals.

While battling Necro910 and his relentless pony forces a while back, i had a realization. That, once completed, Aztec Two Step will be the the perfect theme song for Gorerape the Massive Malicious Maze of Death.

An excellent choice. Haven't heard this piece for quite a while.

It's all fun and games until someone gets hurt. Then it's Fun and Dwarf Fortress.

Kudos, you are now one of the only people I know who was aware that it even existed.

On another note, I'm quite happy that this thread hasn't died off yet. It's fun to imagine the dwarves working on some massive megaproject under the vigilant watch of the overseer with their anthem playing in the backround, or perhaps for an inspiring speech as the dwarves rally and cheer, Or maybe in preparation for a battle...

So many possibilities...

Silent Hill 2 OST - Betrayal

It's calming and has a nice backdrop for whenever I'm mining out a large section.
