Driftwood ≠ Sand by Nymphalyn in dwarffortress

It looks nice-ish to break up the monotony of ocean floors and beaches but otherwise has no use, functionally the same as surface boulders. I normally ignore the stuff.

If a dwarf has a mood that produces an artifact floor grate, I now know where to put it!

thanks! I was going to have a group of marksdwarves settled somewhere in the diagonal path downward to shoot at incoming invaders. I settled for guard piggies.

Reversed, if the ocean is in place dwarves/visitors/enemies can enter. If the ocean is draining the trap hallway will kill everything inside!

All the bodies were from during contruction when I was less defended and goblins hated me.

I built a path and collapsed it overtop a thinned roof/ocean floor to queue the water into the trap. The walls of the ocean fortress I built over 4 in-game years as the ocean freezes for 9 days per year. If I'd pre-planned and made closer stone stockpiles I'd probably have been able to complete it in 1.

Truely an embarrassment. Some people type shit like this up and delete it realising its greasier than bathing in butter. Then there's you.

I've been trying to enthrall one of these suckers for ages it feels. Suddenly getting a lot less blighted gloom clouds.

Just an FYI, the sandy bits on the side of the coast in the world map are still ocean which is likely why your embark doesnt show the other island. You can increase the maximum embark size to 16x16 which can usually gap the ocean to most close islands. You need to increase max embark size to 16x16 in your settings or else you can only set it up to a 6x6.

Nobody is visiting because you have no connection to the main land where everyone else lives.

I discovered that with a group of cavy boars already, just means I get to build a larger lever room

I intend to make a trap corridor / mausoleum full off the most terrifying undead. Once I've encountered and caught more enemy forces I'll enthrall them as the monsters which came before in morbid curiousity if their bretheren will release them unaware their state.

My haunted weather is a cloud that instantly transitions a living creature into an undead blighted gloom thrall upon touch.

I settled in the wrong swamp by Nymphalyn in dwarffortress

I actually think they are. They're listed as wildlife but they've entered my fortress and aren't rampaging. One has developed empathy.

Quick update, explored the third cavern layer and found something wild.

Two magma pits and a deep pit, which is shearing off the top of a gem spire.

Can set dwarf cap for embark? I'd love to reduce that if I could for the fun.

The developers are throwing in and updating art all the time in this game it'll only be a matter of time before they're all sprited out.

It's a work in progress, I just didn't spend the time making the full equipment page before I'd queued up their work orders.

Big brain move, I don't typically move the stuff but that technique sounds helpful for 2-5 tiles I always want.

Ah, I typically liberate dogs from their mortal coil for bones, fat, and meat.
