I've been playing the first year, and really, it's not that spread out, is it?

I had to go a few tiles away for the bedrooms so they wouldnt be bothered by noise, and then i had to go further away for the magma and the forges...

I guess i should have channeled the lava closer to the rest, maybe one of my followers will be able to deal with it, or i will in 4 years when i get the fortress back :P

Dead Elves merchants, right after i lifted the remotely controlled bridge... One went berserk and killed the whole caravan (including the animals whose bones they won't buy back cuz i'm a "low race murderer".. damn elves)

Dead dwarves just above the entrance of the fort, a harpy raid got rid of a few useless immigrants...

Magma Forge and support structures

I recently looked up from some deep digging to find 4 goblin corpses mysteriously lodged in the gauntlet of stonefall traps at my main gate and one corpse just outside the gate. This was odd. I had received no notice of a siege and no notice of any jobs being interrupted by the goblins. Nonetheless it made me realize I had to get serious about equipping and training a healthy standing army and finishing my defenses. So, I put this general area at the top of my list.

You can see a mini-Medina with a central dining room and small food storage space for my metalsmiths and a few odd peasants and miners.

You can see I also favor small stockpiles for the many resources that forges/smelters need. Rather than bog my whole fortress down with hauling jobs for a season or more, it's better in my eyes to create small hauling jobs more frequently and to still have the goods close at hand for my metalsmiths. All in all I strongly favor this method and will very unlikely change my ways. - BridgeBurner
