I'd love a gangtag too! I tried to play the ASCII game once around 10 years ago, so I'm starting from scratch more or less. I chose an embark site in a happy place, no wildlife, no goblins around. There is a nice little river and a magnificent waterfall. At least 5 tiles wide and 10 level deep. Immediately, I decide I'll do something wise and build a complicated (for me) entrance, with a slope several levels deep leading to a drawbridge in front of the water so that everyone can be cleansed by the mists before they enter the fort. Deep below (but still above water) there also will be a splendid dining hall opening directly behind the waterfall for the enjoyment of the dwarves. Alas, I am a fool. First, it was the tamed rabbit that fell in the waterfall. I don't even know why. Then, the couple of dogs after being punched in several places by red pandas. They died instantly. Not much later, the dwarve placing stone grate in the dining hall fell too. He was unconscious and drowning, so I tried to do something to rescue him. While the dwarves were digging towards their friend, a cat fell but didn't suffer any injury (why?). Then the dwarves finished digging and flooded the dormitory level I had the great idea to place far below ground to insulate it from the noises, because in my hurry I didn't notice I was digging below the underground river and not above it... I think I'll stop there for today, and will probably avoid playing around water that early with the next embark. Loddfafnir fucked around with this message at 00:35 on Dec 9, 2022 |
