1086 - spring.
The underground forest, the farm area, and the cemetery are all flooded. (why the cemetery too? I think it's better with trees and plants. :P)
The trade depot is now inside :)
the stones are going to be all moved into the proper stockpiles :D
and the Elf (i)di(ot)plomat is here to bug me about the number of trees I use. (damn.) >X|

I presume you are going to unflood the cemetary at some point? I prefer my dwarven tombs to be cold bleak and barren with deep and epic engravings of great battles and cave lobsters.

ah, yeah, of course. : )
This picture was just to show the amount of the floodable area of my fort. The floodgate was closed right after I saved this picture.
I got the idea of a flooded cemetery to help the trees productions, while I was out of wood and the underground forest was still too little to be affordable. That ground was almost unused, so...
At the present time the underground forest is big enough to not require the use of the cemetery.
Anyway, I still like the idea of trees around the tombs. : P
I just wonder how much time will require that mud to be cleaned.. that yellow is a fist in the eyes. >_>

Always a shame when a fortress is lost to the FPS demon.

Thanks schm0. (^^)
yeah, it's sad. All that time spent on it.. sigh.. (TT)
Anyway, a last note just out of curiosity: this is probably not the oldest fort, but it's quite old.
According to what Toady said me in IRC, every time you start a new fort the starting year rises up one unit, and having made 2 attempts before than this I can say I started this one in the year 1052 (the 1st starts in 1050).
Being this map of year 1091, it means that it's a 39 years old fort!

EDIT.
correction: watching at the legends after closing the fort, I see 5 forts listed, not 3. I really can't remember them. but this is.
So this drop down the age of bodice from 39 to 37.
weird.. I'm getting old too.. >_>
