Still playing Dwarf Fortress. The Fort is up to 231 population. Attempting to deal with the Bat People has only angered them. Dozens of them have been killed, but all this has managed is summoning 168 of them to my top cavern level. One legendary axedwarf got stuck 3 Z-levels up a tower-cap somehow and got pincushioned. The expedition leader also got got. One dwarf, a 7 year old child who got traumatized in an earlier Bat Person attack and lost a lung, has been tantruming, killing two dwarves somehow, even though simply walking is enough to make her winded.

The fortress has been decreed a barony, and one of the original settlers, a 5x legendary miner was given the title. New dwellings and a tavern have been built near the third cavern layer to try to draw as many dwarves towards the magma-powered workshops as possible. Several forgotten beasts have arrived, but none pose any immediate threat.
