First major fort in the .31 series. 218 dwarves. My report on the use of burrows for segregated forts: Only useful for small forts, requires too much micromanagement. Assigning dwarves nicknames so you can keep track of where they belong, assigning beds in the correct area, assigning them to the burrow itself, NOT accidentally assigning them to another burrow, ensuring seeds get distributed to all necessary areas, etc.
8 dwarves and a dog, kept the Forgotten Beast at bay while the masons blocked them in, sacrificial themselves for the rest of the fort. The dog fought the Forgotten Beast for several years, before a proper military with proper equipment could be sent in to avenge the 8 dwarves. A small girl, only about 5 years of age at the time, also fought gallantly. She fought the Forgotten Beast alone, becoming a legendary fighter/striker until losing her right arm. Today she is grown, and with her brother, run the Fortress Guard. Their father is a retired mayor. Being the only survivor, "Lefty" chose to have her tomb surrounded by steel. Aside from this, all the other tombs are aluminum in the center, surrounded by gold. The dog Logem is held here as well, after being killed by a magma man. Made of clear glass from imported sand, gold, aluminum, and imported clear/crystal glass windows. - AtomicPaperclip
