Notes
We're removing the expensive Axe because we can build one cheaper. We'll bring along blocks for the smelter and forge, bars and coal to make steel, and wood to burn. Not only will this get us our mandatory axe, but will springboard steel production.

ReOrdered Dwarves

Thinking that I've got some slight issues with the lineup, I've resplit and reallocated the skills for the Dwarves, and on my current team, replacing the wrestler with a stonecrafter.

Logic

Seeing as how I spend as many points as possible in skills, and as many points on the "primary" job function for that dwarf, I decided to examine it further. This allowed me to re-arrange the secondary skills to correlate how important the secondary ones are to primaries that have more flexibility in schedule. For example, I moved Furnace Operator to be with my Mason, who, in the beginning, tends to have little urgency in his work other than "hey, go make another door". Now, when embarking, my miners can immediately get to work, and the woodcutter only needs to make a bit of charcoal, and the Brewer can prepare the steel for the axe.
