Waterdeep - 1052 Early Spring by matryx

Map Description:

The elves came, but we didn't want anything they had to offer - plus, our severe lack of rocks means that currently we just have bones and shell crafts to offer, neither of which they'd appreciate too much I fear.
Food supplies are already ridiculously huge, and drinks are not wanting either.
7 more Dwarves on the way in via migration, nothing too much at the moment.

Point of Interest: Temple Doors

( 1052 Early Spring → onwards )

This is the entrance area for the temple. Pre-1053 it is just a storage area for rocks and ores. Post 1053 it actually leads into the glass/limestone corridor for the temple proper. - matryx

Totally sweet. It's too bad the lake is only 2 z-levels deep, or you could make some totally massive structures.

You're missing the point of water:

If he digs down FOR the lake, he can expand it to the lowest level possible!

He could fill the entire damn MAP with water, as ill-advised that may be.

very good. question, will you stick with green glass or eventually convert over to clear?

Submitted by: matryx - 2007-11-19 to 1053 Early Spring

Clear glass might be used in some areas, but unless I can import Rock Crystals, crystal glass won't be.

And Flok has the right idea, I intend to expand the lake-bed where needed so allow for further underwater "expansion" - I believe the lake already gets filled up from the South and East map edges, but I haven't confirmed that yet.

Wonderful! I don't get why you don't have more comments. You should. I have never tried to build something underwater, but the glass idea is cool! also, I have a question. How do you free up bags for glassmaking? Mine are always full of seeds and the like. Anyway, Great temple!

does the glass actually require reinforcement in-game? or is that just a bit of realism? and i wonder what kind of crops you can grow underwater... or if you can have an aquarium with turtles or larger water fauna and such. keep us updated.
