Well I hate to say this... But it's been a week since we heard from Reudh, and unless we missed something, the Save has not been posted :(
Which means you'll need to down load the save I posted all the way back in Feb :P

 :(

Too bad we have to miss all that work... If he gets back and posts his save I'll use that, but for now I'm grabbing the save from February. I've got today off so I have plenty of time to look around and see what can be done.

I'm not sure if there is anyone who needs to be dorf'd yet, but I'll check and dig around to see who all I can find.

EDIT: The save starts around midsummer, so I guess we are using that as our start point from now on. Think I remember seeing something about it, but I can't remember where.

Noticed a few trader migrants hanging around on the eastern map edge, so I used DFHack to get them moving and contributing to the fort.

I'm going to get the pump stack and reservoir dug out abs built at the least, I already have it mostly designated. I built a windmill to see if we have any wind, and unfortunately we don't, and we don't have an aquifer so the only real options for power are a water reactor or similar set up. I still need to designate that for digging and get parts made, but it seems we have enough logs to last us a decade so I'm not worried there.

If I can, I'll get a waterfall started, hopefully near the gate. Probably in front of the existing bridge, unless you guys have any input there. I'm open for suggestions  :)

Posts about fort design are probably game related, just sayin'

Also, I had an idea. How about I, on a copy of the most recent save, use dfhack to turn all dwarves hostile to each other and see who comes out alive? Probably one of the Founders, but you never know.

Make sure to add people like the baron, other officials, and Zefon to the notable dwarves list, to prevent them being overridden.

Ok, I've got a little more played through, nothing much interesting yet. I'll have time tomorrow to get an update started, and I'll probably post it once I'm finished. Been busy at work so I haven't had too much time to dedicate to playing.

Ok, I have a bit of time today to get a bit more played through, might be able to get some stuff written up. If I have time I'll post it, if not I'll try to get in tomorrow or Wednesday.

I'll get some maps today for sure though.

EDITL Ok, maybe tonight or tomorrow with the maps, and maybe an update. Forgot I had a work meeting yesterday, then had to come home and take care of a few things so I wasn't able to do much else besides get pictures. Can't get stonesense to look satisfactory for me, so I'm gonna just use the default ASCII tileset and caption things a bit more.
