Bimkutam Update #2 - Humble Beginnings

The dwarfs have begun with the construction of the first rooms and z levels and after making rough sketches I wanted to show what it is starting to look like in real dwarf life.


 This is the first z level where the entrance to the fortress is.  The trade depot is located here as expected.  A temporary meeting room has also been designated in this tunnel.  Next to but not connected to this entrance tunnel is space for farming plots.  This is accessible via 3rd z-level but needs to be on this level as it’s the only one with earth. 



This is the main entrance hall with serves as a temporary storage place for all goods and where staircases will lead to different part of the fortress.  For now only top-left stairs (to entrance tunnel) and middle-top stairs (to farm) are connected.  The bit extending tot the right will lead to right side of work shop space.



Workshops are and will be located here.  I hope that with this lay-out, where 4 workshops are wedged between two tunnels, will allow for both easy access and for traffic to this level to be spread out.  In between the rows of workshops there is possibility to reserve space to create Stockpiles.  One is being created at the bottom now for food storage.
