I felt like doing something with a fort based on or around a bottomless pit, expanding the hole and branching off with small rooms for workshops and other things.
I still have a bit of work to do, such as finishing the pit digging, and then channeling away all the unwanted rock at the edges.
I plan on using only constructed floors with the central up/down stairway in a + shape.

'Shore' Toolsoak, a proficient metalcrafter and a great stonecrafter, met a gruesome end by the giant cave spider, now known as Basensalir Sosasmafol. She stumbled upon the great monster's web atop the mountain, and was quickly slain.
Shore was loved by Grose, another member of the starting seven.
Shore contributed a great deal of obsidian crafts which helped in trading up for food and valuable raw materials.
To this day, Basensalir Sosasmafol stands read to claim more dwarven lives on the mountaintop.
One day, we will strike back at the beast.
Rest in peace, Shore. - Gauphastus

I want that update too. I like how you've circle-fied the pit, I would imagine trash disposal is pretty easy, living over a giant pit, although I would be paranoid about cave-spider bites.

Nice fort there. I see your usin mah map, eh? My first use of it I tried to make something this spectacular, but it came nowhere near close to this beauty. A truly dwarven work right here, keep it up man.
