Kobolds lack the ability to dig until they steal a pick, but I'll make that a long term goal.
But for the beginning, what should be the first thing I do? First few things, I suppose.
I just noticed there is little reachable clay. Well, fun. Will have to get by on wood until I reach some.
[QUOTE=Jrose14;42717201][/QUOTE]
Yes, and...? Nothing surpasses the greatness of underground. Kobolds should realize that too.

On a more serious note: Build houseboats!
You can still dig through soil. That's what shovels are for. You can make an entirely underground Kobold fort that way, I did it with my first one.

Not since the last update. Shovels are no longer a thing, you need a pick. And you can only get one from stealing (or trading, but thats silly).
On the plus side, it allows you to dig stone.

Also house boats not plausible, sadly. Just tried, floors collapsed into the water. BUT DO YOU KNOW WHAT MAKES EVEN LESS SENSE THAT MIGHT PROBABLY NOT MAYBE WORK?
Sky boats over the gorge.
Oh. Well that sucks. You're kinda stuck making an aboveground fort 100% of the time then, I guess.
Might have to try my own Kobold camp, seems quite fun.
Fort is progressing okay so far. Coyotes charged the giant Jack Rats though.
There were no survivors.
No coyote survivors, anyways.
I love kobolds, so I wish you the best with them!

Ooh, clay eh? See if you can make a clay brick fortress, build a Kobold Constantinople!

Kept looking around.
No clay at all. Fucking hell
Can you collect and build with peat?

I need to make my 1,000th post special. It shall arrive tomorrow.

Depends on how kobolds behave around fire, I guess.

My favourite thing to is making things a bit sensual during fights.

I had a dream at like 3 in the morning that a new version of DF was released. I actually got kind of excited and woke up thinking "I might as well not download it right now, I'll have time tomorrow to play it", like some kid on Christmas. Then I started thinking about the version number and how it's odd Toady would decide to call this release 5.4 (You know, skipping version 1,2,3 and 4, and going straight into a revision of version 5). All I could remember him adding was jumping, climbing and big trees so I just went back to bed and when I woke up I realized I was 1/4 awake at the time and none of it was true. (how did I even realize a new version was released if I was sleeping? I just woke up and was thinking "Awesome a new version of DF just got released!")
I've had dreams like that. Some of the most disappointing realizations of my life have come from them.
Well I was working on something awesome to show you guys, but the undead are attacking me.
In the summer of the first year.
Bullshit. I'll tell you how it goes.
[editline]1st November 2013[/editline]
Wait what, it's just one. Well fuck.
Ruined the suspense.
[editline]1st November 2013[/editline]
It's dead(er).
Will have something interesting later.

What?
How can the cages be full? I just made them, they haven't even been placed yet.
No fuck. Shit.
I think there's a necro hiding on the map, badger corpses from the base of the waterfall keep coming to life and rolling around. Some others that I killed myself are also freaking out and reviving.
[editline]1st November 2013[/editline]
WHERE THE FUCK IS HE THEY WON'T STOP COMING BACK TO LIFE
HOW DID THAT HEAD KILL ONE OF MY KOBOLDS?
Fucking hell, everything is falling aaaapaaaaaaart

Scour the map for that negromancer! And throw corpses into the river or something I guess.

I'm trying to dump corpses, by having my Garbage Dump right off the edge of the cliff, but no one will dump anything.

This is what happens to most of my aboveground forts. Only one I've had work is the one where I dug a 3-wide moat about 2 tiles from the map edge, surrounding the entire map except the top right corner. Coupled that with the turrets from Masterwork, one of which had like over 30 kills, and the only thing that was a threat was flying shit and my own dwarves.
[QUOTE=Jrose14;42725789]I'm trying to dump corpses, by having my Garbage Dump right off the edge of the cliff, but no one will dump anything.[/QUOTE]
Garbage dumps need to be adjacent to the cliff, not off of it. Not sure if that's what you meant though, I've experienced glitches with garbage dumps in the past.

Current fortress entrance I'm working on so far, year 2.

I only use it for cleaning up messes to reduce lag.
So I was thinking back to when my friend first told me about Dwarf Fortress, and remembered that for some godforsaken reason I thought the "hist figs" category in world gen were some kind of evil fruit. :v:

Would you like to play Dwarf Fortress, Adventurer Mode, or eat some EVVVVVILLLLL FIGS?
