Talk about your current fortress - trials, tribulations, successes, and failures. This would also be a great place to post your long fiction of your fortress.
Most recently, my fort, Cobaltshowers, fell to a mistake when placing a giantess in my blood-sport arena. This mistake saw the giant, and swarms of goblins, released while the bridge to my fort was still open.
My militia could not organize in time, and the swarms overtook me. Good times!
I’m a compulsive fort starter. I usually retire them after 4 or 5 years. my latest fort, like all my others, would be well thought out and separated. Each pair of floors would be for an industry and it’s associated stockpiles. It would be beautiful and symmetrical!
Then it turned into my regular style fort, sprawling but with healthy cloth and food industries. My dwarves just want to make sure no one in their world is cold and hungry. We’re subterranean grandmas that worry you’re getting so skinny! Have these roasts and put on a coat, dear.
I too start far more fortresses than I finish!
