hoo boy. Supplies are a mess, and not really all that much for me to do.

Day 1-3: Attempt Bookkeeping.
The rest of Day one and the beginning of the week will be spent with me checking stores, and making sure the numbers are correct. Or at least trying to. Water dwarves are supposed to be smart at least, though without any skill or an office, I doubt I will get far.

Administrator noble here
Hello, I'm Urdim Kutamèrith. I was sent from the mountainhomes to help with administration. If one of you would be so kind to bring me to my office, then I can start immeadiatly.   

Day 1: Pester some dwarves to build me an office. Claim chair as office. In case of chair shortage, claim treestump.
Day2-7: Bookkeeping
Also, would building a support reduce the chance of a critical mining setback.

Actually, disregard my last post. New one coming up now.
Days 1-5 using the stone hooks, TRyto fish in deeper waters. Ask Hastur for help if possible.
Days 6-7 clean fish. If none caught, make more stone hooks in hope of better quality.

I think a tone fishing rod would be pretty terrible. I't either break from being to brittle or be way too heavy. We may be dwarves but we can't make everything out of stone.

Oi, fisher dwarf over there, bookkeeper over there. XD Guess I need to change my plans completely.

New Orders for the Week:

Set up animal processing as before, Butcher, Tanner, Craftsdwarf(bonecarving) using 3 stone.

Day 1-7: Search for Animals, animal bones, or corpses around us. Taking the next day after to process/capture if I find a corpse/animal.

Struggling with what to do. I guess I'm falling back on recon and random scavenging. Who knows, maybe I'll get lucky and find a herd of sheep or something.

As to animal breeding, perhaps any female animals would get a spore pregnancy roll each turn, with the DC based on Male availability and distance? Egg layers could do the same, but have it for egg hatching, since egg layers should lay at least one egg each turn, based on the quality of the nest box(required for eggs)? Probably should be something with pastures as well, but not sure how to even suggest to implement that.

Also,

I think a tone fishing rod would be pretty terrible. I't either break from being to brittle or be way too heavy. We may be dwarves but we can't make everything out of stone.

Stone poles made from all stone yes, but stone fishing hooks are very effective if made by a decent knapper. Natives all around the world tend to use stone and bone as fishing lures and tackle. Though it does give the idea of either making a net from rope reed, or perhaps a Fly fishing lure to upgrade fishing bonuses in the future.

@ Haika
Maybe you can try to look for a good pen/pasture zone. Or set up the workshops already?
@Asotan
Maybe you can try fish from the bridge, just make sure you don't fall in.

Day 1-7: Hunt

"I will go off to hunt once again ... maybe this time I might succeed."

((Hm... color-codings sounds nice, but by profession might be a bit vague. Farmer-brown could mean anything from planter to potash maker, blue could be glassworker to armorsmith, etc. Still better than nothing, though.))

Also, I like that accent. ))

*cough* "We don't quite have an office yet, seeing as we've juuust now started breaking into the cliff. There were, ah, difficulties with the bridge. _{Like agreein' on the bridge...}"

"Speaking of which, I'm sure I'll do better this time. Plus Kagrenac an' Athor an' I work well together! But first..."


"Sandow! I know you're busy with other things, but we could really use some stone blocks when you get a chance! At the very least, getting us a proper mason's shop would be much appreciated.

The rest of you, if you're looking for something to do, there's always gathering plants, cutting trees, or making stone blocks!"


Day 1: Build Metalcrafter's Workshop (aka Forge?) out of stone. Use whetstones on axes.   EDIT: And the newcomer's pick.
Days 2-7: Mine!

Spoiler: On Animals (click to show/hide)

I'd suggest some sort of end-of-month giving-birth roll, or similar. Keeps it about as simple as you can (and allows for one/two rolls for all animals/all animals of a given type, similar to how the cat-grab worked) while still leaving some chance in there.

Also, remember that maturation times should probably be unrealistically short, else it'd take forever to grow anything. Six months is a whole 24 turns, for instance, which is a pretty long time as we count things.

Grumble, Let the records show i was going to do that anyways! Tosses the carpenters tools in a corner somewhere

I'll be giving ShootandRun another day before I take his name for granted... Plus I work tonight, in 2hrs. Not enough time to roll today...

[Hubris Incalculable]

@Nevyn: Could you possibly update the map?

[Neyvn]

~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~

End of Month Map.

So I don't have to draw each Workshop as they are in game (which is difficult due to Ascii Draw lacking many tiles that DF uses) I have decided to make them all the same 3x3 blocks with a letter or two of the Workshops name, K is kitchen, C is carpenters, S is Still, SC is stone crafters, and so on. The Bridge spans the river is 4 wide, this can be changed if its wrong, and same with the dug out area and the predesigned area. These are welcome to change...

I already did, forgot to put it on the Mainpost though...

[Hubris Incalculable]

Oh, sorry. Me and not looking hard enough...

[Eктωρ]

Hai guise. Do I just need to post a profile to be put amongst the migrants on wait? Because this sounds like mad fun.

Yeah, just follow the Profile system in the OP, read up on the turns *need to remind myself to link them in the OP later*, and just try and check to see if you understand how things go. Your never wrong with your profile, its just me failing to be clear so see how you go with understanding it...
