Guildlashed - 255 Early Autumn by Tiogshi

Map Description:

A mini-fortress, made using the 1x1 Fortress hack. Turned out surprisingly well; found a decent vein of each gold and silver, although only 40 or so tiles of hematite, and no other valuable metals.

Point of Interest: Descent Tour: 3

From top-left clockwise... the booze stockpile, the primary and secondary kitches, the jail, the leatherworks, the clothworks, the upper refuse stockpile (with tanners' and butchers' shops at each end), the Artifact Reserve (the 2x2 room with the Legendary Felsite Hatch Cover and Diorite Grate, I kid you not) the primary workshops, control room, and upper barracks.

About the artifacts... this fortress is ridiculous. Of the seven artifacts so far, two of them are furniture; the hatch cover and grate. The hatch cover is actually work 144,000; it starts with Felsite, sure, but then he took blue-dyed giant cave spider silk, my only two gold bars at the time, and a star sapphire I imported to encrust a nobles' furniture. Of the other five artifacts, three of those are ALL toy axes. One wood, one iron, and one green glass, all worth less than 10,000. My dwarves are fixated, I tell you. - Tiogshi

These nanoforts are always so CUTE.

I'm a little surprised you're storing so many bones (and in such inefficient storage space) with such little real estate to work with. Paranoid about moody dwarf requests?

Yeah, nearly every fort I start I lose at least one would-be Legendary Engraver or Metalworker to a lack of shells or bones.

As for bone efficiency, I use the 50% pattern for bone storage because miasma only travels cardinally, so any bad stink stays contained in its 1x1 "cell". Results in fewer unhappy thoughts during trips to the refuse heaps, which was a big deal on this fortress because of the very high efficiency of my first hunter; see the PoI "Descent Tour: 9".

Yes yes I see. If you aren't above quantum dumping, you could always dump diagonally down a 1 z-level pit zoned for waste disposal and keep all your bones/shells/skulls there.

Do you only see a blank space?
