Here's the save: http://www.mediafire.com/?djdiozpza33dabj

I'll upload a recount of my turn tomorrow (tomorrow's a holiday here) but the fortress is in a stable condition. There was very nearly a tantrum spiral after a massacre by giant langurs but everyone's happy now. By the way, there are two forgotten beasts somewhere is the cavarns so look out whoever is next.

Here is one of the screenshots of the underground part of the fortress:

I have made some new bedrooms and a dining room here.

By the way, how do I get the image to show in the message? :/ It just shows up blanks when I put the link between the [img] things

I would say that is xmorg turn now, since somebody butchered the saves and let them rot :P. And you come next, Jeff. That is if there will be pieces to pick up after yearly Giant Lagurs invasion (God, I hate these things...).

It looks like you were busy enough, wallace, the first level looks now nice and dandy. I'm waiting for full recount of the events. And yeah, did you name the dwarves? Or should xmorg/jeff do it?

PS. You use image function that way:

[_img_]link to image[_/img_] - just delete '_'

It should work with full link... like the one I've put here:



Which means DIRECT link to the photo. Not the one to the page with photo :). In your case it's http://img152.imageshack.us/img152/3605/56650428.png

Awesome :) I've put my account of the year 253 in the Ragcopper history thread. By the way, the one man squad is a tough fighting machine, make sure you equip him well ;)

and thanks, I've got the proper image links in my account now :)

I haven't named any except Wallace, I thought I'd let you choose your own.

Now focusing on quarters and furniture.  There are quite a few homeless dwarves running around, a sad fact that caused one 2 tantrums after the forgotten beast attack.

I would say that tantrums were more because of the fact that we've already lost a lot of dorfs and surviving ones doesn't like this. Like this child who bled to death and pretty much most of the the fortress I've got. Also there weren't a lot of engravings... not counting the graveyard. So yeah.

btw did somebody checked the engravings near coffins? They're probably full of death and despair. And cheese.

Also: did anyone made preparations for pumping magma up? Into the moat?

No magma pumps yet.  mostly focusing on arming the guard, giving the mayor, captain bookeeper and manager acceptable quarters.
Its mid autumn, still working on my turn.

The engravings in the dining room seem obsessed with deaths or some random cyclops :/

My new alias is a useless one year old child!  it has its own engraved mansion with food stores, table, chair etc. :)  its late autumn,

Ambush!  A terrible battle was fought on the eastern slopes of Ragcopper shortly after the eastern guardtower was built.  Boltrage fired endless vollies of bolts down upon the goblins from the guardtower as they attempted to storm the keep.

All was going well until a miner decided to take a vacation at the gate, and a suturer decided now was a good time go go savaging.
The Unibgusil Regulars were called to sally outside and take on the goblins in hand to hand combat to prevent the goblins from chasing down the two idiots.  Wallace also went into war, no doubt anxious to try out his new maul.

Even now the 'Wallace' Alathilum's corpse is being carried to the crypt.  Two markdwarves and the captain of the guard are in the hospital.  The goblinite came at a bitter-sweet cost...

Shortly after, Iden Gasolcilob gave birth to a boy while making a 'masonary' construction,  He was called "Alathilum's Bane", to mark the sad occasion...  It is early winter.

The forgotten beast Ukla Thretelspugac has come! An enormous blob composed of water.  It has a broad shell and it undulates rhymically. Beware of its deadly spittle!

There are apparently a LOT of births taking place...

Zefon Namedgem, a member of Wallace's Memory, killed the Forgotten beast with her *Alder Shield*(wooden)

A goblin ambush was easily suppressed by the cage traps.

The Forgotten Beast Tharama has come!  A towering eyeless surpent.  IT has a pair of long antennae and it squirms and fidgets.  ITs slate gray scales are large and overlapping.  Beware of its poisonous sting!

It is early spring.  Snatcher protect the children!  The Regulars and Wallace's Memory are still fighting the Forgotten Beast Tharama.  The entry point appears to be the first drinking well.

The next person is up!
