My 5th or 6th Fortress. Still a work-in-progress with projects uncompleted. With a name like Relicsteel steel should be in abundance in the fortress, yet alas I have yet to find any iron ore. All iron has come from Goblins thus far, and besides some suits of armor, steel production hasn't been a priority.
The original entrance to the Fortress. As the Main Entranceway is still under construction, this entrance will continue to stay in use. The barracks are to the left along with the archery range. They too however are to be moved to the Main Entranceway. The stairway directly north is the original main shaft downways. No enemy has ever passed over the entrance into the Fortress proper. - gades1313

I like some of the perimeter concepts here - having a large valley all to yourself, for example, where you can farm trees with impunity. That's pretty cool!

When digging out your obsidian farm, use ramps instead of channels. You should be able to just designate the whole thing to be mined out in one go, versus doing single lines of channel designations.
