Mafolzasit "Chamberknife" - 120 Early Autumn by Servu

Map Description:

My first successful Dig Deeper map. The fort is situated between a volcano and a chasm.

This update takes place just after a huge orc siege that nearly doomed the whole fortress. I will upload a video of the siege later.

The most notable incidents aside that have been the ever increasing number of goblin ambushes, so the forest is still a restricted area.

I actually breached my population limit some time ago, but the constant pressure from the goblins and the recent archer raids dropped the number back down.

This is by far the most interesting and Fun fortress I have ever played

Point of Interest: Bridge of Despair

( 120 Early Autumn → 126 )

This is the ground zero for the Battle for Mafolzasit that took place just before the update. At least 60 orcs met their end here during the heroic charge my champions issued while bolts and arrows flew to both direction.

(video)

Many good dwarves in temporary mason duty were too stupid to run towards the gate instead of the invaders and were lost to the first few orc wrestlers that made it over the bridge.

The bridge itself is made out of alunite, with two towers (one still incomplete) built out of rhyolite in the middle. It is currently the only route for caravans (or anything else) to enter. - Servu

Awesome entrance, multiple magmafalls, and a room with both water and magma to go into it.

5/5, my good sir. Bookmarked for future viewing.

As soon as I get back to my Dwarf Fortress computer I'll upload the current status and a little video. The waterfall is completed and is running rather nicely. There are many other expansions on the way too.

You can't hide that pentagram in the bottom floor.

Satanic fortress!

Hey my dwarves don't mind. They have even scribbled some pentagrams to the walls themselves.

I don't know, but HFS in this map would make great justice. It would be awesome to find some in the only free mountain tile...
One can always dream.

Great map, and I loved the stories and your writing style! The "trampouline" room was hilarious.

Thanks Barbarossa. I might even get an update up in a few days. There has been some Fun stuff happening once again.

edit: the update is up! I still have some PoIs to put up and a video to upload, but I'll do those later.

edit2: the video is up!

Damn, you have seen quite a few slaughters in your time, haven't you. Sweet fort.

I like how there's a bunch of puppies in the middle of the magma pentagon ._.

Yeah the place is actually just next to the orc capital. They can siege me multiple times per year, and usually bring full armies complete with the dreaded crossbows.

Love it, awesome and badass fortress.
