What is this page supposed to be anyway? Is it supposed to be a tutorial on how to start FM easily or is it supposed to be a complete guide to setting up FM?

Ok, i did a quick survey of guides from 40d. First, the 40d equivalent page got thankfully redirected to 40d:How to safely start in fortress mode, which is a better title, at least. What follows is a list of starting guide pages from 40d - we should probably condense this number quite a lot in the new version and redirect all the other names to either appropriate guides OR to an indexing page for guides.

Recommend 3 guide pages: Quickstart guide (as a guide to what happens if you embark without preparing carefully), Your first fortress (a relatively safe guide to help someone who's new to the game), and Starting build design (a theory discussion about the components of a starting build).
