| + | == How to drill through an Aquifer == | ||
| + | |||
| + | Hans Lemurson and QuantumMenace have developed a method how to drill through an aquifer of unknown thickness. In my opinion their [http://www.bay12forums.com/smf/index.php?topic=79224.0| original forum thread] describing this method is extremely hard to learn from, so before you end up like me spending days of figuring out what the DF gurus actually meant, here is a more newbie-friendly version. | ||
| − | + | Even in this newbie-friendly tutorial it won't harm if you first train this on an embark which you don't intend to play after you've made it through the aquifer. Therefore I suggest you take this embark setup: | |
| − | + | === Suggested embark setup === | |
| − | + | * 1 Proficient Miner | |
| − | + | * 3 Proficient Masons | |
| − | + | * 1 Proficient Carpenter | |
| − | + | * 1 Proficient Woodcutter | |
| − | + | * 1 Proficient Mechanic | |
| − | + | ||
| − | + | sell the anvil to buy: | |
| − | + | * 30+ stones (you will need 16 pieces of building material per aquifer level) | |
| − | + | * 4 logs (to build a [[DF2012:Carpenter's workshop|carpenter's workshop]] and a [[DF2012:Screw_pump|pump]]) | |
| − | + | ||
| − | + | Make sure you have at least: | |
| − | + | * 1 (battle) axe | |
| − | + | * 1 pick | |
| − | + | to cut down trees and mine | |

| − | + | 1. Channel out one tile at each side of your staircase like this: | |

| − | + | | [[Image:Aq03.png|frame|left|your first aquifer layer]] | |
| − | + | |} | |
| − | + | 2. Build a floor replacing the stairs between the channels and build a pump there, pumping from the west (make sure one of your dwarves has the [[DF2012:Building designer|architecture]] labor enabled): | |

| − | + | |} | |
| − | |||
| − | |||
| − | + | 3. Make sure you have at least one dwarf with the [[DF2012:Pump_operator|pump operating]] labor enabled. Start pumping the water from one side to another. And build walls around the first quadrant. | |

| − | |||
| − | |||
| − | |||
| − | |||
| − | |||
| − | + | 4. Deconstruct the water pump, build it facing the other direction and start pumping again. Build walls around the second quadrant accordingly. | |

| − | |||
| − | |||
| − | |||
| − | + | 5. Deconstruct the pump and the floor tiles in your non-aquifer layer and construct an up/down staircase there instead. | |
