Scorchorbs - 318 Mid Winter by Soadreqm

Map Description:

The fortress of Scorchorbs expands like some weird cave fungus. The undead horrors are pretty much gone, the magma pipe has two skeletal fire imps and I have two caged skeletal trolls.

I should probably start carving some bedrooms for my dwarves at some point. Right now only a few nobledwarves have their own quarters, and everyone else sleeps in the barracks. Also, the river is bugging out, and I'm going to have to do something to it.

Other things on the To Do list: Glassmaking, dig more ore, build stronger army, dig more graves, dig deeper, tree farms, organize woodworking better, more food stockpiles, bigger and better dining room, think of something to do with the trolls.

Point of Interest: Drainage

The plan is to make the river flow directly to the chasm, and switch between the two possible river paths with a few floodgates. There's valuable minerals in the water! - Soadreqm

Δ 23. Drainage
The plan is to make the river flow directly to the chasm, and switch between the two possible river paths with a few floodgates. There's valuable minerals in the water! - Soadreqm
Δ 22. Entrance cavern
This... This is a mess. I don't have free wood stockpiles, so it all just sits in the trade depot. And there's workshops that would be much more elegantly placed elsewhere. Not to speak of the bones. The purple exclamation mark is my possessed architect. - Soadreqm
Δ 22. Flooded hallway
As you can see, the river is flooding into this hallway. I knew this might happen when I closed the floodgate, but I figured there wouldn't be much damage, since the water would just drain to the chasm. I've already reopened the floodgate and the river and the hallway are draining. - Soadreqm
Δ 18. Forges
I have room to expand production, but limited material and dwarf supplies. I still have mining to do here, I want this area to be visible from the entrance hall. All the magma buildings are made of valuable imported iron blocks. Because I can. - Soadreqm
Δ 17. Farming?
This area is pretty small for tree farming, and quite far away from the food stockpiles for food farming, but you have to start somewhere. I can't close the floodgate right now, because then the river will fill again. - Soadreqm
Δ 7. Praise the miners!
I found this pretty little thing while digging the tombs. I knew it was in this general area, but it was still a pleasant surprise to actually discover it.

The reason I'm only digging tombs now, by the way, is that previously I couldn't recover the corpses. There were skeletal snakemen or something in the way, and it would have been an unnecessary risk for the survivors to try to haul the dead elsewhere. - Soadreqm
