Dwarf Fortress

The fortress

I've settled in a swampy area. The land is completely flat, heavily forested, with small ponds scattered everywhere. A brook flows south, cutting the area in half. The only wildlife other than vermin are primitive slug and snail men wandering along the outskirts of the fortress, occasionally catching a bolt from my dwarf marksmen. A keep has been built alongside the brook, acting as a barracks for the soldiers, as well as a last defensive area to fall back to. A wall encloses a large area around the keep, and passes across the brook at two points. The only entrances are at these points, where gatehouses with portcullises allow soldiers to let in caravans and keep out enemies. Guarding the fortress is a squad of eight swordmasters, a squad of eight marksdwarves, and a third squad consisting of eight speardwarves. A fourth spear squad is being trained, but there have been a number of sparring... incidents (note to self - craft more chain armour for practicing dwarves). They've fought off a few goblin scouting parties, as well as a large number of thieves, while only suffering two deaths. Now all I have to do is wait for a siege.

CONFLICT!

The spear squad had been guarding the open gates while peasants were bringing lumber into the fortress. Shortly after, the dwarves were ambushed by seven goblins. The spearmen managed to engage all of the goblins except one; he decided to run away while his friends were being relieved of their limbs. The dwarves gave chase, only to be alerted to a second ambush at the open fortress gates! A mule had wandered outisde, and the goblins revealed themselves in order to kill it. This was actually quite fortunate - if the mule hadn't triggered the ambush, the dwarf ranger nearby would have. The ranger headed back to the gates, firing his crossbow at the pursuing goblins. Half of the goblins reached the gates and engaged the ranger and two war dogs that were leashed inside, while the rest had been caught by the spearmen. The spearmen defeated their enemies, but the squad leader took a bolt in the upper arm, breaking it. The ranger and a war dog each killed a goblin, but the second war dog had both right legs and its head mangled. The sword masters then arrived, cut down the remaining goblin soldiers, and caught up with the goblin snatcher that was trying to steal a baby dwarf.

Oh my god Picross, Picross, Picross, and MORE PICROSS.

Oh, yes, Picross DS is awesome.

Eternal Sonata - Just recently got this game. Played it now and then. It's pretty amusing when I actually understand what the names refer to and mean.

MBAC - Me? Playing PC games? Anyway, trying to get into White Len.

I would be playing Yggdra Union, but fucking Organic Chem lab reports and Anatomy lab quiz

[Endless]

Those are fun videogames.

I have been playing Lord of the Rings: The Battle for Middle Earth.

Currently stuck on the helm's deep mission. The mine carriers keep killing me.

[EmperorGarlot XD]

Riviera: The Promised Land (PSP) To be completely honest, I haven't played this in at least a year now :/

[Feral Phoenix]

Fire Emblem: Radiant Dawn ~ At 3-1 right now, having people die for no reason. I passed my friend(he's playing Hard too) at 2-E by ending the chapter in six or so turns, because Elincia is broken during that battle.

Brawl ~ Play it nearly every day at my friend's dorm; hours are spent beating his large manly characters into the abyss with Lucas and Marth.

[Raijinili]

Sonic Riders: Zero Gravity - I got used to the controls, even though they're as confusing as hell to start it. I also got it today and beat Sonic's story already.

EDIT - Beat it. Took forever beating that black hole monster thing.

Scarlet Weather Rhapsody, lunatic mode, Reimu just pwned me =_=

[Veto]

I've been playing Braid and Castle Crashers lately. Money well spent!

[mindthinker]

Yggdra Union PSP-I still love this game, even though I beat the GBA game 3.5 times. On BF 16. Eudy's voice is really bad.

Castlevania: Portrait of Ruin-Beat level max 1 hard mode. Go me. Now I have the items that make the game unfathomably easily. Time well spent.

[Green Dragon Mega Man]

Tales of Vesperia -Lallygagging around the final dungeon, Tarqaron. Really just trying to beat the 100 man melee colosseum battle with everyone before I start the second playthrough. That way when I fight Kratos, I can just get onto the 200 man melee.

Rockband 2 - My roommate bought this, so we're just going through the world tour mode. It's actually a challenge now, since there are tons of new songs, plus DLC. My fingers hurt after playing this more than they do when I actually play guitar :<

[Ultimaninja]

Star Wars: The Force Unleashed for the PSP

[Tyros Arcainix]

Megaman 9 - I feel so awesome after beating my first Robot Master. TAKE THAT, HORNET MAN!

YUPSP - And now I just remembered I massacred the Undines yesterday. I feel sad.
