Moonchannel - 253 Early Spring by Dwarfbux

Map Description:

I think I finally have the hang of DF2014 after a long hiatus since about 2012 with only sporadic playing in between.

This fortress is actually quite boring so far. There are only two neighbors: dwarves and humans. Elves are nowhere to be found on this map and it would seem that the local goblin civilization has been absorbed by the dwarves. Moonchannel not only has a goblin outpost liason, but a goblin KING!!! Oh the dwarfanity!

There have been absolutely no attacks to speak of so far except for a single cyclops attack that has also led to this fortress's only death in the form of a lowly sworddwarf. Perhaps this shall improve in later years. If things remain ludicrously boring, perhaps I shall deliberately make war against the human civilization so that there are things to shoot at and subject to fun little death traps.

Point of Interest: Primary entrance

The main entrance to this fortress through which traders can access the depot and through which dwarves get from outdoors to indoors. The floor here is currently carpeted with a lovely layer of perma vomit.

Nothing all that exciting lurks outdoors. I think the most interesting thing has been a buzzard that attacked my soaper at one point, but besides that it has been nothing but marmots and geese and the like.

A road complete with drawbridges is currently being constructed, the bridges being controlled from a small control room in the nearby construction. - Dwarfbux

Well... Good luck with DF2014! It's only a few months at most for DF2015. I'm interested by the fact that goblins have joined a dwarven civilization. I had dwarves join goblins, or maybe they were raised from kidnapped dwarves or a clan of dwarves.

Enjoy the improvements, I'll be following your maps from the archive, I like your dwarfcentric playing.

Yeah the entrance doesn't hold a lot of gloom glitter nor glory atm. It's interesting to read how you talk about resourcing. But hey, you're only on year 2!

That was actually at the end of four years. I didn't upload the first few years since I didn't know if I would bust through understanding the military interface this time. Luckily, I did!

Man this is a GREAT fort!

I love the big X hallway in your Legendary Dwarf Quarters level.

When I look at the legendary dwarf quarters, a certain long forgotten feeling emerges... like something falling around the lungs or stomach. Jealousy? Awe? Pride?
