DF is fun for a lot of reasons but the way your problems can swing from "dug into an underground lake from the bottom, 5 floors of mines are flooded, 6 dead 12 missing" to "one of the hunting dogs got stung by a bug" is very funny

NO:
RUNNING
SPLASHING
KOBOLDS
HORSEPLAY
IN THE POOL AT ANY TIME

I do like that not wanting elves to do eco terrorism to you for cutting down too many trees in this means you end up doing the dwarfy thing of making household items out of rock and weird alloys

what's billon? an alloy of copper and silver too soft to make weapons or structures out of, so ideal for mugs right

this run has been weirdly quiet with raids so far, so I've got a squad of guys suited up in iron armour and pretty well trained, a well kitted out hospital, etc, that I haven't to use to do much but chase kobolds off. unlike the previous game where half my dwarves died in month 14 when a necromancer sieged the place.
gonna build up a bit more, get a second squad kitted out and then dig down and down until I find the caverns.

it's a shame coins don't seem to be more valuable than the bars you make them out of though, might still make a bunch as a flex

@Nerts is that an artifact? yeah 9k is about right
