Trickedblighted - 42 Early Winter by Konamane

Point of Interest: Rare silk farm

Two forest spiders are blocked by fortifications to produce infinite amount of rare silk. It took me about a year to train 10 legendary weavers. Now the farm is inactive due to large amount of collected rare silk clothing. Ducks served as baits to lure the spiders, so they spam a lot of webs. Ducks died natural death because of age. I'm planning to rebuild the farm at one of the upper levels. - Konamane

this is really awesome . The above structure is really nice modeled and the tower at the top has an awesome shape , might use that somewhere in my own if you don't mind. Where is the water coming from? aquifer ?

Points of Interest

Δ 61. Upper "Entrance"
Upper "Entrance" is secured by drawbridges and sealing. Just some extra protection against flying invaders. - Konamane
Δ 59. Stone Blocks storage flor
- Konamane
Δ 57. Wood planks storage room
Wood planks storage flor - Konamane
Δ 56. Watchmen station
Watchmen station, that's where my eagle eyed protectors shoot the hell out of invaders. In the middle - barracks with Archery targets (which I find useless) It takes about 2 years to train a squad of legendary crossbowmen, using caged invaders - Konamane
¶ 55. Main entrance
My fortress defend system is based on two level maze, which suppose guests enter at northern area of outer maze, and then proceed to southern inner drawbridge gate. Meanwhile my stationed above archers have easy access shooting surrounding area.

Access to trade depot is most often being open, however only small persentage of traders actually reach the point, due high ammount of invaders. Most migrants (and Megabeasts!) usually die at the edge of the map because of same reason ...
Inner part of the fortress at this level is used for invaders, who were lucky enough to find themselves inside a cage. I link those cages to lever, and when small round drawbridges are up, I pull the lever, so my above located Crossbowmen can train their legendary skill.

The only possible way inside are tho yellow downstairs, they go four levels down, then route goes under waterfall, so any citizen or visitor going in/out the fortress passing the waterfall clean blood and stuff and obtain good thoughts.

Δ 54. Smelting & Smithing
Ore stockpiles, metal stockpiles, workshops ... pretty usuall - Konamane
Δ 53. Gem & Crafts
- Konamane
Δ 52. Farming grounds & levers room
Water is taken from an aquifer. Several floodgates and levers allow to change the direction of flow so I can create fresh mud for farming, if necessary.
Waterfall is also born here (I can turn it on/off at any time). It goes down through entire fortress, and then water flushes away through fortifications at the edges of the map.
There are farms reserved for nearly every underground plants. Missing farms to the right were suppose to be fungi/spore tree farms. I've collected around 2k saplings each (which equals x4 times amount of planks), so when I need more trees, I will build them again.
Interesting fact: overtime, most of seeds simply ... DISSAPEAR, by saing that i mean that I've lost the clue how I ended up loosing all of Plum Helmets, Dimple Cups, Quarry Bush seeds. Now I only have Muck Roots growing to the left.
Levers are used to control water flow and main entrance drawbridges - Konamane
Δ 51. Waterfall pass & Sawmill and Wood logs storage
That's where main entrance connects with the rest fortress. Every incoming/outgoing creature passes through the waterfall. Cage traps all around give some extra protection.

Outer area is reserved for wood logs storage, to be later proceeded to wood planks, for more efficient construction. - Konamane
Δ 50. Mechanics & floor
There some mechanic workshop and stockpiles located here. Also temporary Kitchen & Still are still here, later I will find a better place for them. Right-bottom corner is an original manager's office - Konamane
Δ 49. General production & Hospital & Lever control room
All kinds of goods are made and stored here. Refuse, Corpse stockpiles. Empty bins/barrels, various furniture stockpiles. Some masterwork workshops I didn't manage to understand yet. Levers control silk farm, and below ground water drainage system. - Konamane
Δ 49. Rare silk farm
Two forest spiders are blocked by fortifications to produce infinite amount of rare silk. It took me about a year to train 10 legendary weavers. Now the farm is inactive due to large amount of collected rare silk clothing. Ducks served as baits to lure the spiders, so they spam a lot of webs. Ducks died natural death because of age. I'm planning to rebuild the farm at one of the upper levels. - Konamane
Δ 48. Dining room & Apartament floor
Waterfall falls at the very center of the map, inside the dining room. Food & Beverage stockpiles are to the right and left.

Apartments are located at the edges of the map, connected to the fortress by four wide ways. There are 76 apartments in total (population cap is set to 75)

Current population is around 20, (enormous amount of ghosts result most of deaths) There are 200+++ names to engrave (mostly traders and migrants), so that's a real trouble in my fortress to get rid of all those ghosts = - Konamane
