Moonsyrups - 20 Early Autumn by Noble Digger

Map Description:

It's a fortress! There's stuff in the underground! Strangely-shaped glacier mountain molested by Dwarves! Nearly a dozen dwarves die in magma construction accidents and Giant Cave Swallow attacks!

Check out the POIs to make some sense of this rotten intro paragraph!

Point of Interest: 11. Upper Windworks

Windmills, gears, and axles. The arctic wind generates enough power to drive the system's components with plenty left over to dredge magma up from the depths. A second plant is under construction to service a much deeper magma pumping system, and it's likely that a few more pumps and power plants will be built in the west to serve the river and reservoir. - Noble Digger

Holy huge embark Batman!

What FPS do you get? I'm seriously impressed by you CPU if you get good FPS on this map.

Really cool map, though, I really like the winding tunnel from the cliff face to the glacierside castle.

You know, this fortress was intended to be my "final DF40 fortress blowout" before Toady finishes the next release... I chose this large embark thinking I'd dick around a bit but it ended up getting good FPS. I have an Intel Core 2 Duo with 2 gigs of ram and it runs smoothly at 35+, slowing into the low 20s when dumping is going on. I haven't started moving liquids at all, which is going to CHOKE it.

The fort is playable despite its size because most of that size isn't being used for anything. :D
