Points of Interest

• 37. Welcome to Shadestandard!

  ( 202 Early Spring to onwards )
  Shadestandard was a fortress founded in a pretty unremarkable area. The dwarven prospectors said that the area was rich in "deep and shallow metals", but nothing of value was actually found.
  
  Instead, very shallow caves makes this point an easy access to the underworld, if the dwarves so wish to take that plunge. - Caranha

• 35. General Farming Area

  ( 202 Early Spring to onwards )
  Houses most of the "brown" industry -- my dwarves basic diet is alcohol and eggs, with eventual meat of the unlucky migrand beast. - Caranha

• Δ 37. Gobbo welcome party
  Luckly, I managed to finish the trenches and the outer wall before the gobbos started knocking. This doesn't mean that they weren't able to nab quite a few dwarves trying to get their hunter friends out of trouble. - Caranha
• 33. Main dormitories

  ( 202 Early Spring to onwards )
  Beddings for the unspecialized or unassigned dwarves. - Caranha

• ¶ 37. The great Sand Railway!

  ( 203 Early Spring to onwards )
  Sand is collected by the least skilled dwarves, put in the minecart, and then sent to the legendary glassmaker in the bowels of the earth.
  
  So far, two dwarves were hurt in this project -- a miner who decided that digging the lower half of the shaft before the upper half was a great idea, and an engraver, hit by a pile of falling sand bags (the engraver survived). - Caranha

• Δ 37. The Original Wagon

  ( 203 Early Spring to onwards )
  Since I don't lack in trees, I decided to leave this here. Eventually, I hope to build a cool shrine around the wagon. - Caranha

• Δ 36. Dorf Training Grounds

  ( 203 Early Spring to onwards )
  The former "leave everything I don't know where to put" area is being slowly transformed into my military complex.
  
  The marksdwarves are still hesitant to use my metal bolts for patrolling, but I'm slowly convincing them otherwise. - Caranha

• Δ 34. Medical Burrow

  ( 203 Early Spring to onwards )
  Medical Burrow under construction, was completed later in 203, and now all medical-related dwarves are safely tucked away.
  
  Unfortunately, this was not completed in time to save my Chief Medical Dwarf, the only one who had any actual diagnostics skills.
  
  I still hope my bone setter will do a decent job in his place. Go bone setter! You can do it! - Caranha

• Δ 32. The Cripts

  ( 203 Early Spring to onwards )
  I want to do something cool here, I just don't know what.
  
  The smaller wing is for pets. - Caranha

• Δ 14. Magma Forges Burrow

  ( 203 Early Spring to onwards )
  This was the first completed specialist area, with room and food for my smelters, metalcrafters and glassmakers.
  
  That said, due to the lack of metal in the map (and the gobbos killing the dwarven caravans), there is not much that can be done here yet. But it is ready! - Caranha
