Heartmine - 876 Mid Spring by itg_

Map Description:

Megafort containing, among other things, a colony on the magma sea floor, a werebeast-powered lunar calendar, and the first skyfort built with cave-ins ON.

Point of Interest: Mausoleum of the Original Seven--Ground Level

( 852 Late Summer → 901 Mid Spring )

This is the ground floor of the 15-z-level mausoleum. The feet of the structure are made of reclaimed bismuth bronze, the bulk of it is made of copper, and the top is made of imported native platinum.

The entrance is in the south foot, and the tombs are in the other seven. Each of the Original Seven has an artifact coffin. The original militia commander's coffin is made of goblin bone. - itg_

How long did it take you to cast that magma cistern? Also you are a grandmaster at DF.

Thanks! It's hard to say how long it took since I put the project on the back burner a few times. Maybe 15 years?

Awesome. I can barely imagine what it'd be like as a young dwarf arriving at this massive fortress for the first time, setting eyes down on the great staircase from the bridge above.

It's about 30 with temperature off. I keep my population at about 100 and am constantly dumping surplus items into the abyss.

One of the better fortresses in recent memory! Awesome work - how long IRL have you been churning out this beast?

Submitted by: itg_ - 2014-04-28 to 901 Mid Spring

About a year, on an off. I haven't put nearly as much work into it since the beginning of this year, since I've been waiting for the new release.
