It definitely gets more style points from me than a fortress above ground though. Yeah we'd basically need to have a starting 7 military dwarves and just hole up until the first migration comes | ||

Outside means it's currently exposed to sunlight. So uh your dwarves would all be exposed to weather all the time and you'd have 0 roofs (which probably means your fortress is horribly doomed from the start). Chances are you want the restriction to be above ground + not below a certain z-level (not below 0 most likely). | ||

Above Ground is easier to achieve than Outside, since Outside really means there has to be no roof over your buildings. I also think that we should make an exception for farms, because underground crops are very much needed in the early game; while you can technically play the game without them it's very tedious. | ||
