-6- [Ebaszmokez] (1) and here we go
Spring 251
we send 7 of our best dwarfs to claim a new land in an honour to our queen. We chose a suitable site that should provide our heroes with at least basic materials.
Expedition Leader's jurnal
We arived after long and tiresome jurney but atleast our destination looks pleasant enough, plenty of tree, water and even some wildlife that we can hunt. We start with build few necessary workshop and digging our fort entrance.
As soon as we dig below surface we strike a huge gypsum layer mixed with some dolomite looks like this will be rich land as well.
summer 251
Expedition Leader's jurnal
first wave of 8 migrants arrived everything is going well. As we dig deeper we discover more and more rare minerals. We've begun to move everything into fortress and we started preparing proper bedrooms for our dwarfes.
autumn 251
Expedition Leader's jurnal
another migrants arrived we are now 19 strong, we begun to build defenses for our fortress and inside well for emergency however weather has struck and now everything has frozen solid. thankfuly we are already secure inside of our fortress.
Finally some good news our liason has arrived, our crafters have been very busy so we will trade our trinkets for some cloth, leather and other necessarz supplies.
we have begun to dig very deep hoping to find magma pool however we have been interupted by discovery of large cavern, we interupt our digging efforts.
Winter 251
Trade caravan report
Our dwarfs seems to be doing well and were starting to craft some valueable trinkets but im afraid that their defenses are completly ready yet, sir.
Expedition Leader's jurnal
well seems my time as leader is at hand, luckily we havent made any major mistakes. defenses are being build as we speak however im afraid that they will have to be finnished in spring. We have enough supplies and everyone seems to be doing well. Maybe i should have appointed a chief medical dwarf but noone seems to be well suited for it hopefully next migrants will bring some doctor with them.
i wish i had time to appoint some military as well but with no threats on horizon it wasnt critical.

Sweet, what kind of industries do we have set up yet?
everything basic should be setup, craftdwarfs, jewelers, food production. more advance ones im not sure right now :D i do usually at least build the workshops even if i dont have any dwarf for it yet but this i cant remeber :D
Cool we should get hunters/marksdwarves for meat, hides, and security.
