I was gonna try and make a wall so that the goblins couldn't get downstairs but I was unable to even leave. If only it would let me micro 1 dwarf by left/right clicking, I coulda kicked all their asses!

I say, we try to reclaim the fortress to keep the game going. If you guys want to do this let me know and I can upload a the world with the fallen fortress.


+ Show Spoiler +
2nd of Granite

All the loot. The loot, the glorious loot. Its all mine! No stinky mushroom breath dorfs to share the shinies with. But... those gobbos, those brimstone sniffing, sulfur bathing, grass skinned mountain toothed monsters! They want our loots. But we will not lets dem has it now will we. Oh no. We can't let that happen. I can smells them, smells them all the way from here in my nice cozy bed.

5th of Granite
If we can makes a wall, mightier than all. The fortress... Will be ours! And the gobbos can melt in the sun!

7th of Granite
I hearz dem. Trampling down the stairs like like a thunderstorm. I hope they done finds me...

no! no no no! No no no no damnit! They ams taking the loots! How dare they lie their gnarled slimy appendages upon our things!

[image loading]

10th of Granite
The ghost of Vucar ams here... He says I will die. I think that he lies. The greenies will get bored, and thus leaves the horde!

[image loading]

15th of Granite

We needs.. helmets! We needs dem! We must make helmets! (he mandated for helmets)
Why don't we has helmets! No wonder everybody died!

[image loading]

28th of Granite

Still out there they are... we can hears their guffaws and chuckles... Maybe we should invite them for drinks and ask them why they will not leave us be.

We would love a drink right now yes we would...

[image loading]

29th of Granite

dem leather faced, troll leather wearing, rot mongering, festering, muck loving, troll kissers must die!

We've had enough!

[image loading]

The fetid pages are caked with blood and other mysterious fluids, only Armok knows what gruesome and wretched fate befell this dwarf...

Reclaiming is so much more fun than starting a new one. =S

Can we get a screenshot of the drawbridge, that has failed us?

Not sure about reclaiming/start new. I just hope to get to play my turn this time ^^

Drawbridge:

[image loading]

The drawbridge area is circled in red; it originally spanned the pit that you can still see.
The two arrows indicate the paths that the goblins were still able to take.

The lever marked at the bottom controlled the bridge; I worked out what it did by myself (I'm so proud )

The drawbridge would only have worked if we had had a real moat instead of the puny pit it was built over, but I didn't realise that at the time. I'm not too angry at whoever built it though, because the same person presumably also did really good work on the layout of our farms and our workshops, which were really stable the whole time.

Edit: Just went through the history of our Fortress in Legends mode:
Dwarven History excerpt

In the late winter of 130, The Sensitive Seduction attacked The Brushed Armory at Martyrtomb. The goblin Bax Clinghorrors the Sensitive Beard led the attack.

This was the goblin attack that led to our doom.

I am proud to say that the industrial heart of the dwarfen fortress was build by the great professor darkenergy.
All glory to me ! Tough the bridges where already there before my rule with 10 levers might i add.

An reclaiming would be a fun thing to do maybe somebody could do a little writeup using adventure/legends.
and explore the place. People who did not get to play could start the fortress this time around.
Thats right stimmed marines can outrun aeroplanes.Tasteless

We could have some guys reclaiming the Fort, and others making a new one in another thread?
I'm all for more Dwarf Fortress content here on TL

PassiveAce:
I think having it all in one thread would be pretty unwieldy after a time, because people won't read the whole thread and miss the fact that we've started a new one / new ones. Better make a new thread and link to previous ones in the OP, in my opinion.

That would also be advantageous in the case that the Fort from this thread is reclaimed, because people won't get as confused what update belongs to what Fortress.

Oh, the moat's ramps weren't cleared. That's tragic.

I say new thread entirely, but the OP should have a collection of the reports of this fort.

Haha. I made the moat but couldn't do the drawbridge/levers/remove ramps because of no architect back then. =D
