Cometnet - 214 Early Spring by KenboCalrissian

Map Description:

Castle project still under way! Goblins slain! Elves propelled!

Point of Interest: Flood Trap

Not sure this will ever come into play, but there's a devious trap awaiting anybody trying to enter by means of the wolf hole (which I've just noticed I need to fix, pending the problem I found with the setup...)

If enemies get past the weapon traps and the doors (very unlikely), they'll step on the first pressure plate. This will open the floodgate to the north and flood the hallway. The enemies will need to get through more weapon and cage traps and break through more doors to get out before they drown.

The pressure plate at the end is set for water pressure 7, so when the hall is completely full it opens the southern floodgate to let the water pass into the pond outside. - KenboCalrissian

Points of Interest

Δ 21. Living the High Life
The plan is to move all of my dwarves into a residential area in the sky. The main reason it's up so high is because I wanted to keep them away from the noise of the workshops below.

Hmm, now what to do with all that space in between... I know, but I'm not telling! I'll give you a hint: My shops are going there. - KenboCalrissian
Δ 17. Elven Junk flung a z-level high from the bridge
Flung the elves, their stuff scattered, some of it landed on top of this inaccessible wall. I wonder how much higher it could have gone? - KenboCalrissian
¶ 15. Bridgeapult Aftermath
This is ground zero of a bridgeapult of an elven caravan. Funny thing... I had an elven ambush last year, and then they came back the next with another round of trade goods. I let them know I didn't forgive them for the ambush.

Take note that there's junk from their caravan stuck on top of my wall 2 z-levels up. The mule in the moat survived with two broken legs, a broken ear, and lots of brown and light-grey wounds. The elves that did make it to the caravan had their goods seized, as is right and proper. - KenboCalrissian
Δ 15. Ruins
In an effort to expedite castle construction, I've removed all workshops and stockpiles from the main level of my old fort. This should cut back on travel time significantly.

It's not in this version, but I'm currently constructing a new barracks near the rear entrance of my fort for the same reason. - KenboCalrissian
Δ 15. Waterfall Malfunction!
I installed pumps along my moats to draw water out and back into the brook/canal. Apparently, this raised the water pressure enough to cause flooding all around my waterfall. Still dealing with this dilemma, but until I do I have no choice but to limit my waterfall usage. - KenboCalrissian
14. Atis Eralbomrek, Baby

( 212 Early Summer to onwards )
Atis was born 24th Hematite, 212, Early Summer while his mother and two siblings were asleep. He promptly crawled out of bed and started crawling away. - KenboCalrissian
Δ 14. Blown Wells
Well, crap! Apparently the water pressure problem was so bad that it flooded this collection of wells in the dormitories. This was one of my most useful constructions, too. I have an idea to get the water out, but it's risky... might also be lots of FUN. - KenboCalrissian

Δ 12. Queen's Quarters
I got my Queen shortly after the last map posting. Her crypt is the one with the statues in it to the northwest. - KenboCalrissian
