I dunno, I was basing mine off of what I imagined would be the current state of dwarven maritime knowledge.  Although, on the other hand, while keeping that in mind...

 More immigrants, more fresh blood for the militia. It is heartening. Given that Leperfish and JimmyTheD failed to provide a wall of stone, I suppose we will have to suffice with a wall of dwarves. I do hope the new overseer will begin construction of fortifications before the fortress enters its second year. Although I initially objected to this new overseer (what kind of silly name is 'OhCrap'? It is not befitting of a dwarf), especially since she is yet again sent by Sankis to rule us instead of being picked from the dwarves already present, I already have begun to like her; she speaks with much directness, unlike that Leperfish. I have not once heard a 'metaphor' from her in the month she has ruled and already she has ordered more alcohol, fixed a fatal flaw in the defenses and demanded an end to the Beer Joke. Can Leperfish claim equal accomplishments? I do not think so. Finally, on the artifact constructed by Fitzy Fitz. Frankly I do not care whether or not a cat bone toy boat can ever be considered a 'true' legendary artifact, what bothers me more is all of the materials Fitzy Fitz demanded in the process of making it. I saw him dragging entire logs of wood, and reams of silk (the entire fort's supply!) to his workshop. Perhaps he started working on an actual boat and decided that it would be too much for him, har har. I just want to know what he did with the rest of the materials. Surely he couldn't have used all of them.

Sorry for not replying much, but I'm still following the thread, and I adore all of you. ALL of you. Seriously, I think this is already shaping up to be the least serious LP of Dwarf Fortress to date.

That was amazing. OhCrap's updates sound like they come from a beautifully simple, cranky old Russian man who looks like Lemmy Kilmister. ...I am not sure how the last part entered my mental image, but at least the name fits.

With all the accidental same-sex couples in this game, I was wondering if this has built-in gay couples. It seems to have drat near everything else.

 From the Overseer Diary of OhCrap MountainMist, 237, Bronzestabbed Report on Glorious Artifact Shedlisid, The Ordered Clash, is an Artifact created by "FitzyFitz" FoughtPaddles in Honour of Great Flood and Axing Of Windmill in 237. I cannot quite make out Engraving. When questioned, FitzyFitz states that he was inspired by My Actions. He states that Menacing with Silk represents my Decisive Action that Saved Fortress from certain splashy doom.  Beloved Husband says that it is Deserved Tribute for One So Brave. I could be Happy here I think. I am a Good Overseer. I will make Last Hope work for Dwarfkind.

Erm .. don't take the engraving as read. It appears to change between loads. The last time I looked at it, it related to the founding of Bronzestabbed. Before that, another fortress. And of course, the book captured above came up yet another time. The value of Shedlisid is 4800, less than Nethtalinsokan at 9600. A malachite floodgate is useful!

Still catching up with the thread, but if we're going to be facing off against the undead, and we already have references to 'What is Love', then it's obvious what the theme of our nemesis is.

Goddam dude, great updates. I'd say leper's decision to allow new blood into the proceedings has well and truly been vindicated. PS Keep an eye on those bloody kangaroos, we all know what they are like when they get that killer gleam in their eyes.

Dwarf Fortress .jpg here. Keep the content coming. In my own superfortress i just got invaded by a forgotten beast who somehow made his way into the great dining hall unnoticed. Unfortunately for him, I had about 3 idle War Dogs and a bunch of other hostile tamed dogs just idling there as well. They literally had torn off 3 of it's four limbs before a hammerdwarf came and put it out of it's misery. War Dogs, I love them! Also, speaking from experience, Kangaroo meat ain't bad either if cooked well. Get on it you lazy Dwarves! The Swamp Thing fucked around with this message at 02:18 on Jul 18, 2012 |

No engravings, no embellishments, no spikes. It was worth ridiculously little--I think it was 3,400. Who knew you could become a legendary bonecrafter by turning a dog's leg bone into something a dog's leg bone sort of looks like anyway?
