That said I could also make for a very boring but productive year.

That usually happens with me. I've never actually lost a fortress to mood collapses or animal attacks. I just stop playing the fortress after awhile.

I have entertaining but useless forts. Been trying to change that.

Should we skip him and head to the next person until he is ready?

Sorry, I got an exam this friday that I need to be learning for :(
I'll try to get some playtime in, but it won't be a lot until the weekend.

I wouldn't mind. The order is not too important as long as it keeps going to different people I suppose.
If anyone wants to take over (I guess preferably Caekdemon?) feel free to post here.

I am unable to start commanding the doom fortress today, but I can start tomorrow.

I need only one thing. How long are the turns? Are they a year long?

TPP, I'll add you to the list.
It'd be lovely if someone would continue the fort.

Ah ♥♥♥♥ I've been busy as ♥♥♥♥. I'll start it tomorrow, on that you have my word.

Let a new day dawn on Beermachine's.

A day of fear, violence and malice.

Dwarf Fortress = DOOM FORTRESS

EDIT : Starting the fortress.
1st Granite, Year 127, Early Spring.

"So it has come to this. I am now in command of the fortress. If you, the reader, are not the legendary Daemonic Caek, then vacate this space IMMEDIATELY to give yourself a headstart before I come and hunt you down."

"Now that I am in command, I am going to run things, a little differently. No breaks on my watch. Anyone found stopping work for even a minute will die and have their head put onto a spike out front. My Armok forgive you if I find out that you have committed a crime in my fortress. You'll want to die after I am done with you."

"My predecessor left the fortress in a good condition before his demise at the hands of a wolverine. While looking over the list of dwarves at my fortress, I noticed something interesting."
Image
"He'll pay for that, in time. Until I get a executioner myself, however, I must first blacken his name as a note. I've since stricken his first name from the record and replaced it with DEAD MAN, for that is what he shall be, and what he is to all of us. I started to analyse the fortress, using the records my predecessor left. The fortress has good amounts of food, enough to last should it be needed to. I will start expanding crop production as my reign progresses. "

"Before I started work in earnest, I decided upon my first act. The clear cut logging of the space in front of the fortress. If the elves get pissed, I'll slaughter them all. Every last damned one of them, and wear their skin like a trophy. I also mandated the harvesting of all the plant's in the clear cut region. My loyal dwarves could do with a little taste of how bad the surface is, so they will not desert the fortress."

"Now, onto the construction of a large amount of housing - I believe that having plenty of free beds will attract a huge number of migrant workers. Workers we'll need. I started with the excavation of a cross, three leagues wide. Then I started planning the housing. Simple four unit wide squares, with double wide doors attached to a three unit wide corridor. Simple."
Image
"Efficient. I set to work making a titanic number of chairs, tables and beds to furnish the fortress. I cancelled my predecessor's plan of fine cooking. Who the hell thinks of that? A human? A real dwarf can survive for twenty five years on nothing but turtle biscuits and sewer brew. So I set out to start biscuit production. Biscuits keep well, and are produced in large quantities quickly. Everything, must be built fast. I also started a pointless expansion of the storage area."

"Why, you may ask? Stone. Lots of it is better then less. As soon as I sent everyone to work, however, a skulking thief showed themselves. I put together everyone into a militia of sorts, and we went outside to send thief to Armok. As a proper dwarf should do, I went with my men outside, in the vanguard, as is proper. My comrade Izen ran at the man as though he was possessed and caved in the Kobold's skull like a fruit being hit by a Hammerer. I knew that Izen would make a excellent guardsman, and so, I named him Sheriff and Militia Commander"

"I had my workers set to work on making a fine home for our Sherrif. If he can cave in a skull with his bare hands, he is most certainly a asset to the fortress."
Image
"Furnishing it will take sometime to complete, however."

"During the housing excavations, however, my miner, Inod Misadil ran into some peat. It turns out, that peat makes up a large amount of the housing level. Damnation. But to the west of our excavations as a large amount of microcline."

"Now, I am quite tired indeed after a hard day's work of planning and fighting. I'll be taking a barrel of ale to my bed and drinking until I pass out. Until next time."

And there we have it, my first fortress update. Woot.

Finally, some progress!
And don't be too harsh on the slackers, they're the hauler people.

I am the best dorf. Ironically, I'm terrible at dwarf fortress.
I hope I become a dorfen hero.
