Points of Interest

• Δ Catacombs and tree forest
  The catacombs has room for 48 dwarves, most of them are caravan guards who foolishly assaulted elephants. I like putting catacombs at the edge of long windy hallways for some reason. The traps lining the cave river are all iron large serrated disc traps, made out of goblin equipment. - Mzbundifund
• Δ Dining room
  The dining room forms the heart of the fortress. The tables and statues are are silver and dark stone, the red carpet is made of ropes dyed red with redroot dye. The statues are all zoned as statuaries with only one accessible tile, so the dwarves spend most of their time hanging out here admiring the furniture, and almost never go outside for smoke breaks. One side effect of only having one-tile statuaries is that the dwarves never throw parties, but they still hang out there. - Mzbundifund
• Δ Failed incinerator and glitch
  This large stockpile accepts goblin equipment, so it's in easy reach of the smelters. The stockpile can be flooded with magma for no reason. I hoped that the magma would destroy all the narrow leather loincloths and useless items like that, but it looks like items on the ground are immune to magma. I'm not sure why the map conversion process glitched the magma vent like that. - Mzbundifund
• Δ Interior Defenses
  Chained war dogs find and kill kobold thieves who sneak past the traps. The weapon traps each have two bronze serrated discs in them, manufactured to train up the weaponsmith. They kill goblins like nothing else, but generate a tone of hauling tasks. The cage traps were added to try to cut down on the hauling tasks. The crushing drawbridges were added after I got three seiges in less than a year. I had proved the fortress's ability to repel seiges, and was tired of hauling all those blasted (narrow cheetah leather glove)s. - Mzbundifund
• Δ Tree Bedroom Monument
  This is my best monument yet. It was constructed at the end of an ore vein, so the crooked hallway wouldn't seem to point to nowhere. The leaves are rope reed and cave spider silk ropes dyed with emerald dye, purchased slowly over several years of caravans. The pink flowers are pressure plates. The tree's trunk is a collection of wooden bridges and supports. Copper or bronze would have done just as well, but using wood just felt right. The knothole is a bed, and the branches include a cabinet and a coffer. The whole monument is zoned as a bedroom, and rents for over 25,000. - Mzbundifund
• Δ Yin-Yang monument
  Constructed entirely out of one-tile light and dark stone bridges. The white and black circles are one-tile bridges suspended just before completion. It was my hope that these suspended bridges wouldn't block river access, so the dwarves could still use the river tile under them for buckets of water and gathering sand, but no such luck. Even though this monument is more than 7x7, it doesn't need supports because river tiles don't count as excavated tiles when calculating cave-ins. - Mzbundifund
