Chaincurses is a goblin mining colony established on the orders of Uslot, Demon God of Fire, Death and Torture.
A group of goblins called The Scourge of Society (we can only guess at why they were kicked out of their home to build the outpost) was sent out to ransack a dwarven caravan, find out where they planned to build their fort, and then mine out that area looking for adamantine.
Unfortunately, they ate the pack animals and had to drag the wagon themselves. They did, however, manage to get some good advice out of the dwarf expedition leader on how to build a fortress.
This is the heart of the goblin war machine. There are weapon and armour stockpiles, two archery ranges and two wrestling practice rooms. Any goblin without skills is drafted into the military, and then beaten up by bigger, tougher goblins until they learn how to fight and defend themselves. Then they are given some armour and a weapon, usually a crossbow or a battleaxe, assuming they survive for that long.
Despite being fairly comical, cowardly creatures, the brutal training and mercenary nature of goblin society means that the goblin military is a force to be reckoned with, and the many ruined dwarf mountain halls around the world are a testament to this. - Mori

Awesome, I loved reading all your points of interest, and following along on the SA forums as you attempted to retake your fortress from the demons.

The statues on the tileset look awesome, and kudos, the points of interest really bring the fort to life :)
