[Archereon]

Likes fresh ideas but likes tradition?

Wut?

What are his skills btw?

[Nemica]

I don't have the game open right now, but I remember him as a surgeon.

[Archereon]

So when do you think we'll be getting the next update?

[Zargodia]

if he lives around Vancouver island then there was a major storm that knocked out most of the power in the area

[Felcis]

Don't worry, she lives in Austria. So I guess that the next (and most likely last) update will be realeased soon.

[TheWetSheep]

Hang on. I have version 34.02. Will that not work with the version the game is currently on?

[Felcis]

Everything from 34.02 onward will be fine, don't worry. Just upgrade your DF to the newest version. It would have been a problem only if we had created the world in 34.01.

[TheWetSheep]

So I'll need to re-download? Oh well.

[Nemica]

Well, thanks to my XXLaptopXX, which bluescreened on me, I think I lost some notes. It's not much, most likely, but enough to keep the motivation down a bit.

[Dariush]

Requesting a turn and dorfing as any legendary, preferably a weapon- or armorsmith.

[Archereon]

Well, thanks to my XXLaptopXX, which bluescreened on me, I think I lost some notes. It's not much, most likely, but enough to keep the motivation down a bit.

In game notes?

If so, that just adds to the FUN.

Winter

1th of Moonstone

The pillars are tempting. It's like they're calling out to me. "Dig me. Dig me," they whisper... no, not really. Even though I'm dead, I wouldn't want to endanger those who are less fortunate.

9th of Moonstone

The caravan leaves. Well, we have our coal. We could expand the tree farm a bit, just to be on the safe side.



This, on the other hand, could be a problem. I order drinks to be brewed. Do we even have a brewer? And once again, I shake my head at my predecessor. Did he really think that these little farms would suffice?

20th of Moonstone

The booze situation has stabilized. Still, I'm not sure for how long until they will start drinking... water again.

4th of Opal

The booze situation has stabilized. I have decided to poke holes into the northern pillar. That way we can find out if there's really anything in there or if it's just stories made up by bored and/or sober dwarves.



7th of Opal



Now I feel stupid. I ordered them away from this quite literal hellhole.

9th of Opal

Xiek, who carved the Hellhole, is still thoroughly disturbed. Still, she managed to give some descriptions of what awaits us in the northern pillar.

Spoiler: "For those who can stomach it..." (click to show/hide)

Slush Demon: A great tiger beetle composed of snow. It has an enormous shell and it squirms and fidgets.
(These ones seem to have genders. No, I don't want to think about it.)

Snow Monster: An enormous humanoid composed of snow. It has two stubby horns and it has a gaunt appearance.

Haunt Of Snow: An enormous quadruped composed of snow. It has a curling trunk and it undulates rhythmically.

Phantom Of Embers: An enormous parrot composed of ash. It has a pair of spindly antennae and it has a bloated body.

Shade Spirit: A great quadruped composed of ash. It has large mandibles and it squirms and fidgets.
(Another one that comes in male and female varieties.)

Snow Wraith: A huge stegosaurid composed of snow. It has a fat, bulging trunk and it undulates rhythmically.

Ghost Of Snow: An enormous quadruped composed of snow. It has a short tail and it squirms and fidgets. Beware its poisonous sting!
(Poisonous sting? Is that what they call it now?)

Hawk Fiend: A gigantic hawk with external ribs. It has a twisting, jointed trunk and it has a bloated body. Beware its poisonous sting!
(Yeah, that's what they call it now.)

Winged Demon: A huge humanoid composed of vomit. It has wings and it has a gaunt appearance. Beware its deadly spittle!

Wraith Of Embers: A towering hornbill composed of ash. It has two long, straight horns and it has a bloated body.

10th of Opal

I don't feel well with all these things crawling around in the pillar. Additionally, one of the Glassmakers has started mumbling about having an idea. Great. We don't have any glass, right? I mean, we don't even have a glass furnace.

16th of Opal

Nope. No glass. I have a second glass furnace made. Glass items can be sold for a whole lot of bucks, from what I gathered... I don't like this at all.

26th of Opal

The glass is not being made fast enough. I don't want it to be my fault.

4th of Obsidian

finally. he starTed working. i'm not sure How long i will bE able to Do this. i... i think I'm gEtting crazy. Maybe I am. Or it's just the afterlife calliNg me. alSo, i'm ordering sAnd. lots of sand, hoping that this will neveR happEn again.

7th of obsidian

we have booze. why yes, we have lots of it. booze is great. one CAn never have enough of it. aLso, did you know we're a viLlage? I didN't. village of watchedGleam.

8th of obsidian



isn't it beautiful? HE created a beautifuL traP. i wished for iMagEs on it, but you can't have everything, right? no one can have everything.

12th of obsidian

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

27th of Obsidian

I'm confused. I woke up today with half a dozen dwarfs telling me about others going missing. I wonder if I should tell them that I can't remember anything that happened since I arrived at this fort, but all this seems too crazy. From what I hear, there have been multiple ambushes and a whole bunch of otherworldly creatures are waiting down in the adamantine pillar.

Worst of all, they say that I have been their leader. I don't get it. At all. The best thing is to just pretend to be overstressed from all the crap going on and let someone else take control of this fort.



For the next overseer.
Oh god. There were like five snathers, a few thieves and two ambushes. I'm afraid our military is dead, except for felcis, who's just badass.

[Zargodia]

No why! why cruel world! im dead and wait the demons are made of snow, ash, and vomit wow that's pretty weird. wouldn't the snow ones melt?

[Nemica]

Well apparently hell is a rather cold place.

[Spish]

Uh, what is your framerate after revealing the demons? Usually they cause massive slowdown, especially if they can't get anywhere. And that could be a huge problem for future overseers.

Anyway, awesome job overseering dude.
