Cavestir - 135 Early Spring by Hellzon

Map Description:

My first moderately successful fort in the new version. Maybe ever, to be honest.

In the outside world, war with the goblins rages. A band of seven dwarves were sent out to push the borders a little further from the goblin menace. Blood rains from the sky, and evil purple trees, staring eyeballs and wormy tendrils grow in the soil. But for now, it's safe.

Point of Interest: Tavern and stables

"The Mushrooms of Chaos" draws in travelers from human lands to rest and tell stories. To the right, egg farms, pigsty and monster stables. Hopefully, the giant olms should start breeding, giving us some local variety in meat. - Hellzon

That's an interesting bedroom layout.

Points of Interest

Δ 59. Darn traders
Traders keep dropping big loads of wares as they leave. Maybe because of the blood rains. Moving the depot inside helped a bit but not entirely. - Hellzon

Δ 55. Semi-failed tree farm
Saplings grow well enough - in the half that got irrigated before evaporation overcame influx of water. Harumph. Possibly I'll irrigate from the right too. - Hellzon
Δ 47. Tomb
Almost but not quite filled up. More coffins have been ordered. The central slab is a dedication to Nithe Hilloiled the Water of Dawning, the last titan in the world, mortally wounded by Lusko Wetgood. Lusko rests in the bottom row, second coffin from the left.

We are now in the Age of the Goblin, thanks to Lusko. - Hellzon
Δ 46. Dwarf Suburbia
As it turns out, an 11x11 square easily divides into nine 3x3 rooms with walls in between. Thus was born the dwarven apartment complexes of Cavestir, all located on top of a "plaza" with some practical function. Well, some of them, it's just the hospital, library and generic temple right now because the rest aren't filled out.

The eighteen rooms in the top right are prison cells, located above the basic temple to The Lord Of Controlling, the dwarven god of order and duty. It seemed fitting. - Hellzon
Δ 40. Noble Pillars
Scroll around a bit and you'll see that Cavestir's nobility live in the smoothed natural pillars of the first cavern. The northmost two belong to two barons who arrived as workers and inherited the titles during their stay in Cavestir. The next caravan reported that their holding had been overrun by goblins... - Hellzon
Δ 39. The Final Frontier
Well I lucked out and got not one but two magma pipes reaching the first cavern layer. On a 2x2 embark too.

Down here is where we keep the forges, naturally. Kilns too, there is clay at the top, but no sand, so the glass furnace was hastily put up to save a moody glassmaker.

We found marble in the lower levels, so there are plans to make steel. Cavestir is doing alright. - Hellzon
