My third year with a new fortress. I've had a lot of good fortune in this game, and got an early legendary armorer and in the previous winter a legendary metalsmith. Since I have ample quantities of iron, flux material, platinum, and billion (as well as coal) this has been very good.
Until now, I've been trading materials I recovered from goblin sieges and roasts created by my starting herbalist, who I lovingly trained to a great cook/brewer. I finally learned to turn my extra seeds into biscuits, which helps feed my dwarves, empty my stockpiles, and train my cook.
Stone management, as always, is a problem. Until now, I had some projects that were relatively easy. Building my four story tall red-and-white military tower was quite rewarding, but red stones are becoming rare until I can get back to my quarries, which I need a stronger military for. I also had a sandy first level to cover in yellow blocks. So now I've turned to statuary and crafted goods.
This is the base of my tower and the entry to my underground fort. - msallen
