Chancebolts - 117 Early Winter by kenken244

Map Description:

I finally decided that I should upload this map to the DFMA. This is a fortress made of obsidian blocks, suspended over a major river with an 11 z-level waterfall. I have just finished moving most things from my temporary fortress into the fortress on the river.

Point of Interest: The "Dam"

( 117 Early Winter → onwards )

This series of walls has raisable bridges that allow me to block the flow of the river and drain it. It was supposted to allow me to begin construction on supports for a structure whenever I wanted, not just when the river freezes. In practice, the river is so large that it takes almost a whole season to drain, killing my FPS while it does. It has never been used since its first test run. - kenken244

Wow. Nice fort.

I'd love to see Visual Fortress screenies of some of that fort

This place is awesome. I want to say epic, but you know, the word is a still a tad overused.

Here's a screenshot during the winter just before 123:

Unfortunatley, my save file for this map got corrupted, and I did not make any backups, so I will not be able to continue this fort.

Do you only see a blank space?

You can download the compressed map file: 2009-10/kenken244-Chancebolts-region1-117-30244.fdf-map but you will need the .NET version of SL's DF Map Compressor to convert to the .PNG image format.
