This is the third succession fort, by the way. We did the first one a bit back.

Good luck on this. I'll be away most of july at least, so I won't be able to contribute much.

Sprawl would be nice for screen shot purposes. Hermit would also be cool.

Skydwarves sounds good to me, too. We'll need a lot of masons though. I tried this one and it was amazingly difficult.

I like the Hermit constraint best, but I'm afraid it'll be really fun due to all the troglodytes/giant cave spiders/forgotten beasts you can encounter there... 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

Skydwarves sounds interesting, but I have to wonder what you mean by 'structures' What classifies?

Literally everything must be built above ground. Farms, Workshops, Bedrooms, etc. Everything that comes off the B hotkey.

Above Ground would include being inside of say a tower build from stone using walls, floors and stairs/ramps. Basically anything that's been exposed to sunlight at some point is above ground forever.

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).

The game makes a minor difference between the two. You can see it in the Loo[k] display for each tile.

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.

Alright, lets say Above Ground then. Starting Z-level will be determined when we start the game.

I'm fine with an exception for farms, thats a good point.

if your starting area has enough plants around it's not TOO bad.
