Well that's one more sin crossed off the to-do list.

And here comes some further opportunities.


1st of Granite[edit]

I have 'volunteered' for duty to the King. Honestly, you make one little social gaffe, and suddenly it's a diplomatic crisis, with far-reaching implications. To keep ahead of those implications, and reaches, it's imperative to find an army to be in the middle of, and a rock to hide behind. And dammit, apparently I may have to dig out the rock to hide behind. I mean, there are limits.

Some people take their wives far too posessively. I had to sew those damn pants on, lest I forget how to walk

I've packed a t(rusty) crossbow, just in case a quick exit is needed.

So, "Rampageterror". Charming name.

First impressions: "The fuck is that thing up there, by jove? A tomb? Huzzah, let's fill it!"

"You call this a farm?"

"Capital weapon traps. Shame about Hudson getting caught in one, what what? No, old chap, I was talking to the commander in the control room. Nowhere near the fellow"

"'ello lass! Sorry about that, it's the cramped corridors, donchaknow? Care for a quick tete-a-tete in the brewery?"

I was rudely interrupted by my servant coming up & whispering that there was no food. Or booze. But lots of dogs. Jolly good, just like back home cooking really. I sketch a quick plan of some farms & head outside for a quick fag. And shag.


Farms 01.png


And noticed then, the lack of training grounds, large strong looking meatshields or fortifications. To deal with this everyone is drafted into the Fortress Guards (except for the farmers), to learn how to take a punch or two. And to act as the 'skin' of the fortress - keep the outside out, and the insides in. Meanwhile, I can take care of my own skin, thank you very much. This door locks, right?


12th of Granite[edit]

The elves arrive. Capital, free items.


Hilarity ensues 01.png


Not to be, unfortunately. Still, gives a good dummy test of the battle plan: Push the army out the front, exhorting them to glory, then lock the door, hide under the bed and blub.


Hilarity ensues 02.png


Hilarity only increase, with the appearance of a third party and the elves dismal showing. Fortunately, my Gem Cutter charges forwards to defend Dwarven honour.

He didn't do so hot.

The rest of the wrestlers (wrest of the resting?) charge in.


Hilarity ensues - Results 01.png


GLORIOUS VICTORY!!


Hilarity ensues - Results 02.png

Hilarity ensues - Results 03.png


I don't believe any elves decided to complete the journey to the depot. I was unaware, having supervised the women. The children can take care of themselves

(Kazap, I don't think you're long for the world)

To complete the festivities, a snatcher bumps into one of the dwarves.

All the dwarves have custom professions, to specialize the work & make it easy to note who does what.
