A new year, akindle with millions of possibility, and endless hours of tedium >.>
My military is certainly shaping up, with mostly champion wrestlers as I bring out the weapons.
I have completed the basic workshop area, and am flooring the dining room, then plan to roof over the second level of the workshop area.
My metal industry is taking shape too, though I've only produced a couple copper bins.
As I've stated before, the open air style has been abandoned in favor of the deep mining style, but I decided to finish of this top bit. - Salmeuk

Let me say that making an aboveground fortress with a megaproject is tough as hell. With that said, good luck! I hope you take full advantage of the diagonal walls.

About 60 FPS right now, FYI.
Thanks, I kinda see how the sheer workforce needed is going to be a problem.

Once you get a decent number of workers(Healedabby has around 100 workers and 30 kids), things get done terribly quickly. Also, hilarious events happen as you designate 100 tiles of wall to be deconstructed and watch as they haul the resulting blocks to a stockpile.
Like little ants.

1. I like how similar our grave styles are.
2. Great pit mine. I did research and found there were underground quarries for stone in the middle-ages, but I mostly did it because I don't feel like tunneling through so many soil layers to eventually get stone.
3. Awesome mines. They looks like random scribbles in MS Paint and you either used a utility, DF has more digging capabilities than I thought, or you took the time to make it crazy-looking.
Awesome.

Um, duke, as far as point three goes: You can designate things with the mouse. Mining, dbd, traffic, etc, all can be done with the mouse, so making 'scribble' looking mines is really just an exercise in holding down the left mouse button and... scribbling?

:P Yeah Duke, get with the program.
I just recently discovered the mouse thing, and it doesn't help too much except for designating mining areas and specific trees.
