Points of Interest

• Δ 23. Demolished Shelf B

  ( 203 Mid Winter to 205 Late Autumn )
  The other shelf that you saw in the demo video was here. It was much smaller, and I only needed to shave like 15 tiles off to protect my farm. - erdtirdmans

• Δ 22. Demolished Shelf A

  ( 203 Mid Winter to 205 Late Autumn )
  This was one of the destroyed andesite shelves of land that you see in the demolition video. I had to zoom it this far out just to give you a sense of its side.
  
  In case it wasn't clear in the video, I had to cut out a donut hole before collapsing it because otherwise it would have shot through my farm's ceiling and eliminated the dark subterranean tiles I need for half my crops. - erdtirdmans

• Δ 22. Ramparts

  ( 205 Late Autumn to onwards )
  Though I'm on an evil map and - thus - marksdwarves are less useful, I still went ahead and built ramparts for them to fire from. Who knows, maybe after they've trained in maces or hammers, they'll train for crossbows too to pick off goblin sieges. What's a castle without ramparts, anyway? - erdtirdmans

• ¶ 21. Badass castle incoming!
  Now that that pesky mountain is out of the way, I can get the remaining half of that castle built. Booya! - erdtirdmans
• Δ 21. Statue Garden, Pool, and Execution Chamber

  ( 205 Late Autumn to onwards )
  This area is the Statue Garden complimented with small waterfalls on its western wall, a swimming pool in the east, and a 3-way (starvation, spikes, drowning) glass execution chamber to the north. Only the finest for the Firethrone dwarves!
  
  I'm bouncing around the idea of making a date clock that somehow changes the scenery of this are to show the current month. I haven't looked in to do that yet, but I assume the indicator will be colored objects in between the statues. - erdtirdmans

• Δ 21. Water wheel stack

  ( 205 Late Autumn to onwards )
  Considering I'll be supplying 12 pumps per floor with the ability to make mist on my central stairwells, the number of water wheels here shouldn't seem as insane. - erdtirdmans

• Δ 20. Trade Depot

  ( 205 Late Autumn to onwards )
  This Trade Depot is underground to enable trading during siege and also surrounded on three sides by stairs that lead almost straight to the stockpiles. Generally, I let items sit in the Trade Depot between caravans (d -> b -> f) to save hauling time. - erdtirdmans

• 21. Imush's Last Stand

  ( 202 Early Autumn to onwards )
  This is where I decided Imush was running way too far to ever survive and recruited him into the military. The logic was that I could station him back in the fortress where he'd be safe from the undead. The reality? He decided that, as a military man, he could fight them.
  
  He was beaten mercilessly by zombie mountain goats.
  
  Somehow, we recovered his corpse. Mega-project memorial, anyone? - erdtirdmans

• 19. Industrial Floor

  ( 202 Early Autumn to onwards )
  The workshop floor, divided into four sections.
  
  Roughly left to right
  NW (Wood and stone): Bowyer, Mason, Jeweler, Carpenter, Craftsdwarf, Wood Furnace
  N: Kennel
  NE (Cloth & Leather) Mechanic (somewhat out of place, but still not far. The NW wing expands too fast for Mechanics to go there as well), Leatherworker, Dyer, Loom, Tanner, Clothier
  SW Bars and Blocks: Craftsdwarf, Ashery, Magma Glass Furnace, Magma Kiln, Magma Smelter, Magma Forge
  S: Siege Workshop
  SE Food: Butcher, Butcher, Quern, Fishery, Air lock to Bone, Corpse, Shell and Hide Stockpile, Kitchen, Still, Farmer's
  E: Seed Stockpile next to stairs to Farm and Greenhouse
  
  * The 3x4 rooms around the middle are for a stacked screw pump waterfall assembly. They are not going to be workshops - erdtirdmans

• 18. Stockpiles, top floor

  ( 202 Early Autumn to onwards )
  The top floor of the stockpiles, positioned conveniently below their relevant workshops.
  
  NW: Wood
  N: Animal (forgot to mark it in 202 Autumn)
  NE: Cloth, Leather, and Dye
  SW: Bar-Block and Sand
  SSW: Magma channel, both for the functionality of the workshops above and for the dump chute on the Trade Depot level
  S: Siege Parts & Arrowheads (forgot to mark it in 202 Autumn)
  SE: WeaponTrap, Ammo, and Armor - erdtirdmans

• Δ 16. Tomb floor

  ( 205 Late Autumn to onwards )
  To the northwest: a pet graveyard. To the southwest: a dwarf graveyard. To the north and south: tombs for the nobles. To the east: the top floor of the Mess Hall - erdtirdmans

• Δ 15. Entertainment floor

  ( 205 Late Autumn to onwards )
  To the northwest: A jail, which may become part of the zoo's "Sentient Life Exhibit" if I eventually decide to extend it beyond its standard borders.
  
  To the southwest: A zooaquarium!
  
  To the north and south: Shops, for all your greedy desires
  
  To the east: A the mess hall, where dwarves come to make a mess... and eat. Note that it is two floors, despite that being irrelevant to dwarves. Also, note that the staircases continue straight down from the food and booze stockpile. - erdtirdmans

• 17. Stockpiles, bottom floor

  ( 202 Early Autumn to onwards )
  Floor 2 of the Stockpiles, conveniently located under the relevant workshops.
  
  NW: Gem, Economic Stone
  NE: Furniture, except Barrels and Siege Parts and Ammo
  SW: Finished Goods
  SE: Barrels and Food, except Dye and Seeds - erdtirdmans

• Δ 13. Dormitories

  ( 205 Late Autumn to onwards )
  Dorms of many sizes - mostly 2x3s or 3x3s, though there is a 1x3 that makes me kind of sad. Very loosely based on the Greek Cross plans from the wiki on bedroom design. - erdtirdmans

• 14. Noble Dorms and Barracks

  ( 203 Mid Winter to onwards )
  A cross-shaped design featuring the King's room to the left, a Barracks to the right, and noble housing everywhere in between. - erdtirdmans
