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!
How awesome! This was exported while a dwarf was practicing at the archery range. This back area was kept locked down (via the three drawbridges) most of the time in the past, but as the chasm population has dwindled i've found that it's okay to leave it open. This annex connects the raw plant stockpile (east) with the Ore Dump and the Vault (ramps to the north) and the Trade Depot and Lobby (stairs up) which has saved the dwarves immense time when trading.
Far to the east is the cloth and leather workshop; simple and efficient, and below it is a large loom complex and cloth stockpile.
Northeast are all the regular workshops for the kitchen and craftsmanses. - 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
