Post A Dwarf Fortress Succession Game
Hello, fellow Dorf Fortress players. Let's play a DataRealms Dwarf Fortress Succession Game.

A Dwarf Fortress Succession Game is a game, where multiple players take their turns organizing a fortress in DF.
When a player has completed his/her turn, he/she passes the save to the next player, preferably with a nice post explaining what happened during that year.
If people want, we can make silly roleplay-dwarves with forumites' names and skills chosen by them.
First off, we need to decide between real-time turns or game years. Meanwhile I shall generate a large world with frequent resources, high savagery and short history.

Oh and we're playing the newest release, v0.34.08.

Can I be one of the starting seven dwarfs?

Make me the miner or mason. If this thread goes well, I'll join as a successor, if that is the correct term.

Yeah, if I can have a dwarf with a name, I'll be happy. I don't wanna play right now though, since I'll just ♥♥♥♥ the fortress over.

Looks good to me too.

Dibs on the Mason/engraver/architect.

Name wise, that is.

EDIT : I'm tempted to play in the early game, as long as I don't have to play with the military. That thing is a nightmare.

The bottom. Tons of trees, which are great fuel, wilderness is good, which I think means lots of food animals. There is a brook, which is easier to cross then a stream.

There are also hills, which are easier to conquer then mountains.

Therefore, the top one - Dwarf Fortress has to be hard bottom please.

I think the first one would be best. Flux stones for steel.

Are we allowed to bug/entrap the traders?

I'd say no exploits/cheating for this.
