Retech

Burn and slaughter the innocents!

I wonder where you get the number seven from. :)

Levels could be like dwarf fortress. :D

Actually, he's not useless anymore. I've put him on brewing duty, and now he's providing beer to the entire fortress. :)

Yep Nex. You are the useless Thresher. :)

Yep. (u)(v)(y)(n)(name here)(enter) Rocco is the best miner. :P

[hide] [/hide] My meeting room, which took a while. I plan to make an even larger tomb for my leader, Retech. I've also named every dwarf after a member of the tavern. There's also a farming system on the right, which is probaly large enough for ten farmers, but always pays to be prepared.

Yesh.

*plots communist revolution in France*

It's the time when people are sleeping.

Errrr, midnight to seven for me? Or five AM to noon for them, and it's summer.

I was kidding. :thumbup:

-Historical foresight- Everyone invade Revolutionary France BEFORE Napolean comes along!

That was a sweet gesture, but I'm still happy. :)

I think this was mentioned before, but we should start a succession game. Does anyone know how to save and unzip files for it?

Which is why I said that computers were a terrible analogy. If ignorange is anything that you do not believe to be fact, then I'm glad you understand. :thumbup:

I have found a perfect location for my fortress. It has several layers of pure soil, before it reaches into the stony undergrowth. That meant that I could carve my rooms really fast. I also have this pond, which I am using for my farming and as a flood trap (it replenishes naturally from the rain). I've made the farms so large that they can serve my fortress until it grows to around fifty members. (I only have seven right now) Unfortunately, I threw out all the bronze battleaxes, thinking they were just for fighting. So I can't cut any trees. I have to go through a process of deconstructing my wagons, using the wood to make charcoal. Using the charcoal to turn bituminous coal into coke, use the coke to make more coke, then use coke to power the metalworker's workshop to finally make an axe for my woodcutters to use. All of this is prolonged by the fact that my workers enjoy sleeping, eating, and drinking on the job. :thumbup:

Indeed. I have just gotten on the dwarf fortress craze. MUST MAKE ULTIMATE FORTRESS.

Six out of what? Yesh, you can. I'm trying to be a bit less giving with the exp this time around unless they do something interesting. Also, be limited with giving items (might mess up an obstacle if they happen to have a grappling hook or something :P)

Requesting that you make a non-canon "out of reality" experience, as I don't really want the storyline to continue yet. :thumbup:

Let's change your analogy. First of all, instead of having one crappy computer, I shall have two or three crappy computers. Then we account for the fact that unlike computers, humans can learn (excluding those crazy supercomputer. So then we install XP and despite several glaring glitches and problems with efficiency, it runs pretty well. So now I have three decent computers for your single good computer. Certainly that isn't a good analogy for a computer, but I'm pointing out how using computers doesn't work, especially with the huge technological advancement in the past four decades. A sweeping generalisation is probaly more accurate than an analogy.

It's modern for Russia's serfs. That's the great thing about being a backward country sometimes. Lots of room for improvement. Also, Russia has huge amounts of labor, so it's mainly the amount of wool that is the problem, not the laborers.

Oh gawd, the Office! -Dies instantly after posting message-

Crop rotation and the three (four) field system didn't require steel. We have already talked about this in detail. I had far more progressive ideas (basically taking control of the noble's lands and giving them pensions), but I opted for something smaller instead. Thanks, but I don't need two pop-ups with the same message. :)

Assuming that, but I have already introduced crop rotation and other agricultural techniques, which would increase yields substantially. The extra crops could be used not only for eating but because of crop rotation, which necessitates growing some "non-human food" items, for animals. So available fodder might increase exponentially (For example, if we have 11 foodies and ten are eaten, we have 1 for fodder. Then we have 15 foodies, ten are eaten, we have 5 for fodder), meaning that wool production might also increase exponentially. Progressives ftw! ---- Furs are definitely more valuable than wool. It's what anyone who's anyone is wearing!
