Undercity the Deep - 1053 Mid Summer by Mechanoid

Map Description:

Every smoothed wall and floor you see is a construction.
Every construction is made of blocks.
Every block was made from a stone that was dumped into a garbage pile next to a mason shop.

Edit - On this wall is a image of a fortress and hands. The hands are building the fortress. The hands are making a plaintive gesture. The hands are curled in a fetal position.

At year 10, i will enable seiges.

Notes:
adjuststart.exe'd with 200 starting dwarves and 9995 points. Dwarves do not eat, drink, or sleep; dwarves move at a speed of 1.

Temperature, the economy, and cave-ins are "On"
Weather, seiges, room rent, and artifacts are "Off"
[POPULATION_CAP:5]
[BABY_CHILD_CAP:100:25]
[CHASM:178:0:1:0] (superior chasm appearance)
The colors i altered are:
[LGRAY_R:128]
[LGRAY_G:128]
[LGRAY_B:128]
[DGRAY_R:32]
[DGRAY_G:32]
[DGRAY_B:32]
Because my eyes would bleed otherwise in the low-constrast conditions. (it was nearly impossible to tell the difference between light gray and white in the map export screen, seriously) and did in fact, lose focus a few times.

Point of Interest: 1 - Fortress, Floor 1

( 1053 Mid Summer → onwards )

The fortifications here point outwards, to repel invaders.
Doorways behind them stop enemies from shooting inwards when the fortifications are not occupied.
Marksdwarves patrol the hallways, and check many of the vantage points along their route.
A pair will maintain watch over the gate bridge and another pair the gate room.

Levers here will control the copper spears, and bridge.
Currently, none of the above is true because seiges are disabled. - Mechanoid

This is brilliant. I love the barriers to entry (firewalls and things), the spiral staircase with windows, and the army of peasants being worked without sleep or food.

The staircase was pure awesome! Also this looks like a truly grand fort.

Do you only see a blank space?

You can download the compressed map file: 2008-03/mechanoid-Undercity the Deep C-region1-1053-15502.fdf-map but you will need the .NET version of SL's DF Map Compressor to convert to the .PNG image format.
