40d:Fortress
| This article is about an older version of DF. |
Dwarves live in fortresses — usually underground complexes with all the required buildings for dwarven living.
Nomenclature
Fortresses are named in a specific manner. The name is usually assigned at random, but can be set at embark time. They also gain a title according their population. This title is viewable in the upper left of the z screen, in front of the fortress name.
In addition, the fort may be the home of monarchs of the surrounding land and gain an additional title. This title is also conferred to the Manager, Broker, and the visiting Liaison - for example, the Manager might first be called an Outpost Manager and later on a City Manager, then finally the Mountainhome Manager. Others, like the Clerk have special titles based on the fortress title, e.g. Hoardmaster in a City.
