Metalskull - 207 Mid Spring by Noble Digger

Map Description:

The fortress now yawns deep in the earth. 48 dwarves with population cap set at 25--there are lots of babbies. The entire chasm has been cleansed and a path run to all its reaches.

Point of Interest: 01. Great Forge

The main cluster of magma workshops and a temporary armory. It's a bunch of tiny rooms with a small port into the magma tank below, neatly covered over by the associated workshop. Metal armor and weapons are hung from the walls in each room. Four great golden doors lead into the forge halls.

Below is the magma tank, connected to the feed tube. A bridge to the east leads to the Magma Temple and there's all sorts of complicated doodadery and little tunnels around here.

The bridges to the north can be completely sealed off, but otherwise lead to the barracks. - Noble Digger

if you have the patience for small stockpile manipulation, you could draw something with turtle and lobster shells in the bone area

Points of Interest

Δ 19. 42. Volcano
This is the smoldering crater I'll soon be sucking the life out of from deep below. There are 5 skeletal fire imps and a magma man, and I intend to leave them where they are. - Noble Digger
Δ 18. 666. Skeletal Mountain Goats
These fuckers are relentless, slowly chasing after my haulers until they get smashed into kibble by the Warhammerers. - Noble Digger
Δ 17. 02. Domestic Wing
Bedrooms, kitchens, farms, basic workshops, and a wee bit of goods storage. Seeds are kept outside the farms, food to the north, drink to the south. Fortress managers' offices are in the center near the goods stockpile. - Noble Digger
Δ 17. 03. Catacomb
This is where all the dead cats get buried, naturally. However, even as more than 10 owned cats have died of old age, their corpses are brought to the refuse stockpile rather than buried here. They all have "Pets" enabled... Strange. Maybe animals have to die violently to get buried. - Noble Digger
Δ 16. 04. Magma Temple
The controls for the magma feed and associated doors, bridges, floodgates, and other safety devices are here. Several isolated workshops designed for producing heat-proof mechanisms and barriers are also located here.

A small, stand-alone magma forge was built on the level below to satisfy the demands of a fey dwarf, but the magma conduit to feed the main workshop is deep below and blocked by many floodgates. - Noble Digger
Δ 16. 05. Storage Wing
All kinds of wood, furniture, bones, bags, barrels, and crap are stored on this level. In the center are the cloth and leather workshops and the dining hall. In the center of the dining hall are hatches that open into the Flesh Reactor pits.

The entrance to the chasm and catacombs is hidden in the corner of the Blacksmiths' workshop to the south of the dining hall, and separate entrances are in the ossuary and cloth stockpile. - Noble Digger
¶ 15. 01. Great Forge
The main cluster of magma workshops and a temporary armory. It's a bunch of tiny rooms with a small port into the magma tank below, neatly covered over by the associated workshop. Metal armor and weapons are hung from the walls in each room. Four great golden doors lead into the forge halls.

Below is the magma tank, connected to the feed tube. A bridge to the east leads to the Magma Temple and there's all sorts of complicated doodadery and little tunnels around here.

The bridges to the north can be completely sealed off, but otherwise lead to the barracks. - Noble Digger
Δ 15. 07. The Bioworks
All manner of poisons and salves are kept in their own stockpiles in this stake-shaped complex. Magma flows beneath it to feed the burning clover. This room is kept dry by drainage into the ramp pits that connect the rooms. Sooner or later I'll connect those pits to the chasm drain system. - Noble Digger
Δ 15. 08. Flesh Reactor
These pits filled with animals long ago reached critical mass, with over 270 animals in the fortress. The dogs were recently let out and trained into War Dogs, and are now being crammed into the quantum-phasing lead cage to the north (covered by a dog).

The reactors are loaded from above in the dining room when their drawbridges are raised. - Noble Digger
Δ 15. 09. Fork of Torment
This area isn't really finished, but it's the entrance to the dungeon area which is currently just a cage stockpile. The entire dungeon is supposed to be based on a pitchfork and include a magma river that runs along the inside of each cell. - Noble Digger
Δ 14. 06. The Burning Clover
If you'll take a look down one level, you'll see the ramps that will turn the perimeter of this room into a large, clover-shaped pond. I'll fill this up with magma and cover the edges with grates to give an ironforge-like feel. In the end, this room will probably belong to the cloth industry, which is currently exploding out of the small cloth-leather complex I built earlier. - Noble Digger
Δ 13. 10. Magma Drainage Temple
Magma drainage to the bottomless pit. There is a large stone temple with walkways down below that the magma flows through. - Noble Digger
