"Focusdiamond", the new fort, is up and running. It's in a flat, wild swamp. There isn't a tower anywhere in the world.

First year done.

Save:
A file archive for the game Dwarf Fortress with mods, utilities, pregenerated worlds, and more.
dffd.bay12games.com


Notes
 - There's a dry moat, but no walls. Block production is ready, use the mason's workshop in the mines to make blocks. Put fortifications on the walls to keep invaders from climbing.
 - The bedrooms are being dug, you'll have to build the beds once they're made.
 - We have militiadwarves but no weapons/armor/shields/barracks. They're designated to only use the weapon they have skill in.
 - Not all the farm plots have things to grow.
 - Make bags. Lots of bags.
 - Also fill the rest of the dining hall with tables and chairs, they are queued up.
 - The main stairwell goes straight down to the magma sea. The first cavern is breached and sealed. The other caverns are marked where to breach - just extend the random hallways.
 - Get some cage traps up in here.
 - Also get some marksdwarves together to defend the walls. There are titans in this world.

Wow, I'm a controlling bastard.

It's the little things of this game that ruin me. Such as smelting and arming up military, or even having a military in general. (heh) I'm really unsure how to set one up and control it, too much depth for me. I read the "How To Play Dwarf Fortress" book a long time ago, but stopped reading at that section because it was 2complex4me

Military setup can be complicated I suppose though I never really found it too bad. I recommend watching videos.

I couldn't figure it out until v.40 even though nothing changed about the military organization.

Also, don't chop down the trees within the walls. They're there for easy access fruit. Who even has the save next? Lorknis?

Whoops, forgot it was my turn. I'll grab the save and start playing ASAP.

I'm not sure what you mean... you mean during adventure mode?

Also update on the CataFort: Several new members have joined the fort and I'm having trouble finding enough jobs for them all. The walls and fortifications are done and the the mines have been expanded. Flame left the fort with hardly any food but I've solved that problem quite handily. I'm in the early stage of winter so expect the save to be posted within the next few hours.

I have literally no idea where to begin with DF and I've never once played it before, but I might spend an hour or two  downloading it tonight while I'm out. (I have no internet connection to my computer so I have a complicated and lengthy way of downloading things)

Any beginner tips that I won't find on Wiki/Forums?

Nevermind, don't think I need any help. So far it's going quite well, I'm not even close to done yet but here's what I have so far.

It's alright Flame, I fixed the food problem but had to kill most of the animals off or else everyone would've died while we waited on the expanded farms and fishing to kick in. Anyways I'm in late winter now so expect that to be posted shortly.

The order is still: Peri-Kun, Exo-Kun, Flame-Kun, Lorknis-dono.

so it's peri's turn.
