Points of Interest

• ¶ 59. Too Many Animals
  I've started a mass-butchering campaign; hopefully it thins out the herd sufficiently to cut FPS. - apparentbliss
• Δ 58. Hives
  I have yet to really make hives work properly. - apparentbliss
• Δ 58. Repeater
  SL/Logic Gate Single Repeater (a la http://df.magmawiki.com/index.php/User:SL/Logic_Gates#Repeater )
  
  Hooked up to my Danger Room. I was worried about the pump misting the murky pool into non-existence, but so far that hasn't happened. Currently turned off. - apparentbliss
• Δ 57. Axe-shy Axedwarves
  While my swordsdwarves contingent, led by a proficient swordsdwarf immigrant, managed to train themselves into general excellence, my axedwarves have thus far failed to do so (this over the course of a couple of years). They are fond of practicing dodging, but apparently they aren't dodging axes. - apparentbliss
• Δ 57. Danger Room
  Cheesy? Probably. Figured it would help to actually survive a few ambushes. I've only had it in operation for about a season. - apparentbliss
• Δ 57. Tallow, Tallow Everywhere ...
  ... and not a glob available to my Soap-Maker's. Not sure if it's a tallow issue, a lye issue, or both. - apparentbliss
• Δ 48. Atom Smasher
  With the amount of hematite being mined out, I thought that perhaps smashing the excess rock might help cut FPS issues. - apparentbliss
• Δ 48. Killing Pit
  The goblins are either pit-dropped from near the surface, for splattering, or from one level up, for military training. Raising bridge prevents them from running back up to mess with the civilians. - apparentbliss
• Δ 25. Bedroom Complex
  Via the wiki, http://df.magmawiki.com/index.php/Bedroom_design#Living_Pods_.28Residential_Flats.29 . As advertised, these lay out quickly. Some of the walls are mined out due to a strange mood need for uncut gems. - apparentbliss
• Δ 24. Dining (Not So Grand)
  What better to please dwarves than doors that go nowhere, weapon traps proudly displaying two separate artifact picks, and an artifact ashen statue?
  
  In recent forts I have been setting my meeting area above-ground to avoid cave adaptation, but it does not feel very dwarfy to me. In future forts I think I'll revert to my grand dining/meeting area, deep underground where it should be. - apparentbliss
• Δ 13. Iron
  The numerous veins of hematite have led to many, many, many iron bars. A lack of mineral coal means all steel production has been limited by charcoal production, but all in all, this embark has a nice mix of minerals -- shallow copper, deep iron ore with patches of aluminum, flux, clay, sand. Additionally, the lava is reasonably close to the surface (only about 40 layers down). - apparentbliss
