We want to find somewhere close to Crystalliving, since conditions were pretty good there (even with the frozen type winters) - but we need to be mindful of that haunted area too!

This site is right next to Crystalliving - not sure how that would affect us, but perhaps we need a little more room

If nothing else, our annotated atlas would look a bit weird with two sites on the one spot

@DarkestKale Human city? Most chances, It'll do nothing really fancy.

@Ronflaix Nah, that's our old site

@DarkestKale oops

This one looks good. It's only three clicks south of our last place, so maybe we can send parties over to say hi, etc

Actually, we're gonna go here - just a little bit further away

Spread our influence more

Right, time for embark!

Volunteers?

@DarkestKale pick me!

@checkervest DONE

I forgot to set up Group Name/Symbol of the last fort.

Ugh.

Anyway, doing it now - this group is called 'The Treaty of Systems'

Group symbol:
@worthlessbums being pissed off, and then thinking about climbing a tree

Starting to remember:
I need more quivers next time

*starts game*

*river races past*

haha yeah, good to be on a faster map

Anyway, so this is what we have to work with - we've got a teeny hill over on the bottom right, but it's very far from the river

I like to be close to a river and dig into a mountainside/whatever - I don't like 'just a hole in the ground' entrances, but I don't think we have a choice here

Shiiiiiiit.

Hit a crashbug

@DarkestKale ripperonis, never forgetti

Hadn't quicksaved as I hadn't even unpaused yet

Yeah, it's gotta run through embark again.

GAH

@DarkestKale awwww man that's so frustrating

Aw, we lost our name

Damnit

Ok, new fort name I guess

"Spearromanced"

Uhhhhh,

Group name: The Blanketed Lash

Ok, fine

Here's the embark team! https://mastodon.social/media/0t9DEtCv3y3olk_E2LI

So that's incarnations in Spearromanced for:
@MachineLordZero
@checkervest
@demonicdragon
@Dancer
@worthlessbums
@anstia
and @udell_games

@DarkestKale IIRC there might be an option to turn on saving on embark if you want to avoid this.

@Ronflaix It's all good. Normally I hit a quicksave first thing (and then copy the DF folder as a backup)
