So is the aquifer a big problem?

If you channel down into the Aquifer from above, you can get some free power going by sticking waterwheels over it (as long as the pool has two breached the actual aquifer at two points).  If you have safe access to wood at the moment, that is.

Or we could just channel down to the aquifer and expose it to the elements. After all, this is a freezing embark.

Who wouldn't want free constant exploitable power with which to drive Hellish engines of destruction that lay waste to dwarf and demon alike?

Problem with exposing aquifer to surface: skeletal muskoxes. After all, miners would need to be exposed to them.

Already bypassed it anyway, so it's not a problem.

I'd like a dwarf, please.  It's time to finally get in on this mess.
Remalle, an axedwarf.  Also, every time I die, I want to be reincarnated as the next baby born in the fort, if it's not to much to ask.

Added, and modified the dorfing list a bit. Since I will be crafting a storyline for this fort, there are some dorfs that need to be continually redorfed at the first opportunity. So far, it's Andreus (of course), ThatAussieDwarf, and myself, but the list is subject to change.

The storyline probably will not be massive. I'm just shooting for an epic explanation of why Hellcannon is Battlefailed 3.

I don't care about what profession I get, as long as I get the right stats. High analytical ability, low memory and focus, negligible empathy... ya know, the same as my previous one.

Why am I not on the perpetual redorf list?  Are my feats of badassery not enough to warrant a godly favor?  It should be obvious that, as the last survivor of Failcannon (also, who says I died in the first place?  There was no one else around to see it...  :o), I have proven myself a valuable asset in the fight against the forces of death and stuff.  :P

EDIT: Would I be able to see my thoughts/preferences screen?

Gizogin, somehow, I missed you on the perpetual redorfing list. Also, the save is in the first post, if you want to crack it open.

Clearly, those two kobold babes outside your door weren't offended by your nudity and aggression and wanted to keep you :P

This fortress has much potential for successful failure. Evil, freezing biomes with aquifers are always the most !!FUN!!

Knowing this trilogy, will a tundra titan made of steel show up next?

Does the (unspoiledundwarven) Ocean of Slime extend under Hellcannon?
