:For a full-sized fortress, you will need 8 floors of the decentralized bedroom plan if you want each dwarf to have quarters. It holds 26 per floor, not including the barrack on each floor. This sounds like a lot, but if you make your 'main' floor a good 2 or 3 z-levels below the surface to get into solid rock, you're able to go up and down instead of just down. Digging to solid rock for the main floor is important so you can control the price of the apartments more easily with stone detailling. Building up from there will make you hit patchy soils, which essentially behaves as non-smoothed stone and is ideal for affordable housing. An unsmoothed stone apartment with everything I recommend will go for 250-350, depending on the quality of the furniture. A smoothed apartment will go for 400-450. An engraved apartment will rapidly jump up to over 1000 or 1500 (many of mine are close to 3000), which makes it ideal housing for legendary dwarves. Also note that if you want to go the full 8 levels (which I recommend), you can omit the barrack on each floor and convert it into a zoo, sculpture garden, or a handy stockpile. Or, you can expand the middle line to 5 hexes wide and put a few [[shop]]s (i'm pretty sure these do not produce noise) on each floor. The design is pretty flexible. | :For a full-sized fortress, you will need 8 floors of the decentralized bedroom plan if you want each dwarf to have quarters.

Workshops make noise, which can totally ruin the happy thoughts from sleeping in a good room (+10-20 for a good room, -10-20 for being disturbed to awoken due to noise). I put them on opposite sides of the fortress, usually. Be sure to connect the quarters with wide halls (3-wide minimum) because there will almost definitely be lots of traffic in between them. You can use the space in the middle for your dining hall or some offices for the nobles that actually meet with people (the mayor, the baron, etc), to shorten their walks to their meetings. --[[User:ThunderClaw|ThunderClaw]] 13:31, 3 November 2008 (EST) |
