Koseersi (Swifthelms) - 1057 Early Autumn by matryx

Map Description:

Digging of the Fort has begun with earnest. The governor and other nobles have been mandating lots of things constantly - I have started to fulfill their wishes because the beatings are becoming unbearable.
Also - my earlier dwarves are getting unhappy due to wearing old and threadbare clothes. I may have to investigate how to make new clothes before they start tantrumming.

Digging straight for the river. Rudimentary things have been made out of stone / wood to keep the dwarves alive until glass production is finished.

This looks like an interesting little challenge.

It's been good fun so far - the main 'problem' is that development of everything is so slow because you have to make Charcoal and Sand before you can craft anything!

Hey matryx, neat job so far - but I can't help thinking you're keeping the numbers down, the fort seems so 'small', despite the frequency of your map updates :)

I updated the Point of Interest: Tombs behind the `Hall of History` because the link you put in opened in a new window. I replaced [url=] bbcode tag with [poi=1005].

I wonder where your mining operations will lead next...

Ah! I'd just fired off an email to you about whether you could add [POI=] - I guess you already have! Thanks!

I'm not artificially keeping the numbers down - I guess the dwarves just don't really like glass that much.

It might be because I only produce enough craft goods to buy what I want from the traders, rather than stockpiling tons like most people. I should investigate that in a different fort.

I think migration is based on fortress wealth, and good quality food stockpiles and expensive artifiacts drive new migrants to turn up... if you are able to support them or not.

Is it wise to have your trade depot so deep within the fortress, won't you have wagons crawling past your beds - or is that only a temporary issue?

This is only a temporary issue. All dwarven accommodation will be moved to a new keep where the nobles are temporarily housed. The nobles will move further north, and we'll make an area for the True Nobility even further north than that.

This one of the more inventive fortresses I've seen. That mural is shaping up to be a masterpiece, and when both are competed ... wow, just wow.
