We should take if further and do some fan art XD HA! But anyway its nice to see kruggs just play and experiment with DF stuff so I'm down with him doing a few short forts before his next epic tale.
A fort In the sea #28: "... and that's the last of the elf invasion force thrown into the shark pen. Hopefully next time they show up, our werebeaver squad will be ready"
I can't help but imagine Krugg accidentally ending up with another long fortress and having to constantly say that long-ass fortress name every single episode
We found them below the waves. Fish men, nine of them, adorned with golden baubles & carrying bone harpoons. They stayed with us for a time, speaking of their deep gods, old cities, & the crushing darkness of the cosmos. Trade is all they seek, all they ask for is nets & spears, but it troubles me. We will see them again next year, mid summer. They promised.
"I've got a bit of a problem where I get attached to the dwarfs and make a big old thing out of these... but that's not gunna happen this time!" -Kruggsmash 2019 don't mind me, just marking this down for when we get to "A Fort on the Sea #21"
Perhaps a fort on the seas. Once this part is set, dig down to the caverns and use the skills these dwarves have developed to build on top of the lakes.
Good use of negative space, the tree and sign initially draw that eye to that, then leading you to the dwarf rising out of the fort, giving a nice refreshing feeling of walking out into the salty coastal air.
Kruggsmash: Short forts - a fort on the sea episode 1 - it's only 1 or 2 episodes, I promise! Also Kruggsmash: A fort on the sea episode 49 - the tides of fate are turning - Finale
Kruggsmash, ive watched your videos for about half a year by now, this is by far one of your best idea, Arelzuden was also a fascinating seried which i would had liked to see more of. I only ask you to make this a series, its brilliant, and you are the only one on youtube that i know of that can do this! And i need to fill my weeks after honeystoker.
Glad you like it dude! Unfortunately, it wouldn't even be a good series at this point. speeding right along past all the character building of the fort and stuff.
@@kruggsmash that's true. To be fair, I'm pretty much happy with whatever project you have. I've watched every episode since the very beginning of monsterkiller and I'm working my way through steel clutches now. So, hope to hear of you soon Krugg, thanks for the great work!
@@kruggsmash Totally, the caverns underneath the sea are always fascinating to dig around in! Guess it helps that I live near around the coastal area hahaha
Our were turtle... is he an AQUATIC were turtle? You should build a second semi-aquatic dungeon, a sewer if you will. And find a way to mutate, I mean infect dwarves with the transformation (maybe three more or so?), and have them become an elite ninja unit!
Really?! This was actually a *fairly* simple thing to do. Actually, it would have been MUCH easier if I just walled off an area and pumped out the water.
@@kruggsmash No, really. The creativity of putting it in an ocean biome to make a trap that doesn't kill from flooding, but is *specifically designed to kill sea-life by draining* is a wonderful idea. It's the fulfillment of an idea through principles of bridges trapping water; and I love it. Keep it up ya bloody bearded bastard.
"IT's going to be a short fort guys..." FIVE YEARS LATER. "All I need to do it finish the docks and set up the custom house and then we're done! Okay folks?"
I don't care, what I just saw built is amazing and I'm not ready to stop looking at it. A fort on the ocean that functions as an ocean trap... But also, it's full of angry Norwegian dorfs in a way and that's a fun idea. Krugg will ad in story if he keeps this one but I'm strictly speaking in love with the mechanics of it all. Oh! And when it fails as all things dwarf do, it's going to be spectacular! Interestingly enough and if I missed something here, I'm sorry but Krugg made a baby talk sound at the start of the video. Baby sound is adding a soft "wu" sound in place of an "r" sound... Like talking to a child, playing up the way a child talks for sake of a story, talking to an Animal and I know he has his little dog who I hope is well, or Krugg may have had a stroke while editing the video... All the same though, OCEAN FORT!
just discovered your channel, I gotta say as someone who's never played Dwarf Fortress before and knows next to nothing about it, your videos really are amazing! I love the artwork you take the time to make, and the fact that you turn everything into this investing story. This particular video is so cool, it's making me actually wanna get into the game. Thanks for doing what you do!
I see your bird art has benefited greatly from Honeystoker. The Avians for Artistic License (AAL) bequeath you and Mrs. Krug this 'bit of nesting material in grey' for furthering The Cause of Fowl Art
Your videos inspire me to make my own ideas for fortresses. Most fail, but I'm optimistic, so it's to be expected. Thank you for inspiring me O' Kruggsmash the Mighty Builder.
The technology has been pioneered, the innovative hunting techniques have been developed, all that's left is to see just how practical this method of fishing is! As the fort expands more of these "Drain-Trap Fisheries" can be constructed, should they prove their worth. I wonder is fish can be lured en masse... Great Work!
Kruggsmash making these forts: "Just one more episode... Just one more episode" Me watching Kruggsmash videos: "Just one more episode... Just one more episode"
When working with lots of water it might be worth building a minecart swim trainer for your dwarfs, just to make sure they have a chance if dropped into water. Do it underground to prevent freezing while dwarfs are swimming, because that leads to instant death :/
You lie like a drunk dwarf, this is but the beginning of another massive series, I can feel it! You won't be satisfied until you've hunted a fine sea beast! Then 30 more!
And the whole fort falls apart due to a tantrum spiral... or a Forgotten Beast with Poisonous Blood... or cats with alcohol poisoning and resulting starvation.
This was very good,the production value of this one could be on par with documentary films. The dedication to the fortress,illustrations,amazing,glad I knew DF so this could be on recommended
I've been bingeing content on this channel as time has allowed for ages but this is the first time I'm actually watching one before the next is out. This is exciting to finally not be late to the party.
Man, it is good to see the short forts intro again. :D And I love those interior lamps, so cozy! That fish-trapping thing is quite a thought, glad you managed to do it. And finally, as soon as you mentioned the farm on the platform, I was reminded of Waterworld, ha! One stupid dwarf trick that would keep with the oceanic theme of the fort would be to build a lighthouse tower! But how to light it up? I am guessing that the sinister magma glow would work in a pinch, hur hur hur. Cheers, you bearded bastard!
Man, that intro gives such a load of nostalgia. All of your intros are amazing! If you'd ever make a compilation of all of them ^^ I'd love to see such a video!
Amazing episode as always. Here's an idea: trap invading goblins in a ship-shaped wooden platform, and then destroy it with a catapult! Extra points if you leave high quality pirate clothing for the goblins to wear on the "ship".
I loved the way the water rushed in. This game is truly beautiful. Please don't stop trying weird and cool ideas beacuse I love this fort on the water and would love to see more like it
Out of the Blue, I remenbered this and daydreamed about Sea fortresses for a while. I got an ideia on How to make a Sea fortress on a warm/hot biome withouth Needing massive pumps: Throw magma over the Ocean and then Channel - then another layer of magma, layer and layer until reaching the Bottom of the Sea. Going to test It next Fortress I make and dedicate It to Arelgulnas Kathilmigrurosor Ngitkar
This is first time I saw the sea in Dwarf Fortress, this setting looks so chill with this music and waves sounds, amazing. Can't wait to see next episode(s), I'm sure it won't take long, like 20 of them or so
Every time you say the name of your dwarves and that fortress I can't help but laugh at how ridiculous it sounds. You manage to say it so fluently too. XD So glad I found this video!
Goodbye Eternal Realms. You were fun. Great new fort. I especially like the snowdwarf builder. Suggestion: set up a water tower filled by a windmill and powering a wheel to empty the trapped water.
Krugg, one thing that might be really nice as an appendix to short forts like this is tips for all the new players you inspire about how you're dealing with the various challenges the biome you are in present. I know I was shocked when I did my first ocean fortress and realized that they basically make starving impossible, and have some really interesting automation options. As an example of that, switches in the surf wired up to spikes make a permanent danger room or danger hall. They can make doors flap or make trapdoors over dump zones cycle.
I just recently got in to DF because of you. Thanks krug for you have inspired me to create whole worlds and story's. You are my most favorite RUclips man! May Armock bless you with much !!FUN!!
Woo more Kruggsmash while I wait in pain for Shadowbringers! Would love you to have a world that you make a bunch of forts in, it always makes me happy to see dwarfs from a old fort that I saw get built. Mayhaps something like a Kruggsmash cinematic universe? Either way, I'm always elated to see your videos, highlight of my day!
Yes! A seaside fortress! Love seeing this experimentation. Gives me ideas for my own forts to try and their related industries. Keep up the excellent work man! No matter how many episodes this little fort might inspire from you. ;) Looking forward to the next one!
This is so cool, I found your channel through the skull horror fort and now I know the mayor of that fort cane from this fort. Actually makes a game feel like a real world
Remember that each year in Dwarf Fortress is at least 1 to 3 hours in real time, excluding the times when the game is paused... Krugg is pouring a lot of time into these videos!
As an artist you must have shaken your head when you saw none of dwarves have hair! That's gotta be tough for making unique dwarves but as always you make it work
Really looking forward to this series, I absolutely love the idea of a sea fort! I've never been brave enough to try it myself, but I guess now would be a good time!

That's part of the reason why I gave it such a horrible name, lol
Kruggsmash hahahaha too clever
“This is a Short Fort”
Thinks back to the last 3 Short Forts which turned into a giant overarching series
“This should be good.”
You know it’s fitting the werebeast was a werehorse. Horses were one of Poseidon’s creatures after all
Oh y'know I guess I didn't realize that. weird!
Kruggsmash yep, god of the sea and waters, earthquakes and horses
And it drowned in the sea. So, it was a seahorse. :D

Krugg is pouring a lot of time into these videos!
mmm, yeaaaaah. I'm kinda sick in the head.
29 pics this episode. Each one takes 45 mins to an hour and a half.
I put a *lot* of time into these
Love the stories, exploring these dwarves lives and tribulations. Great content, man.
Yaaaaaay, always fantastic to see a Short Fort. *Theyre never short!* 😀
Ah, another "short" fort, I see ^^
Thanks for the video, it's nice as always :)
Good continuation !
Haha YES! Very short!
As an artist you must have shaken your head when you saw none of dwarves have hair! That's gotta be tough for making unique dwarves but as always you make it work
Really looking forward to this series, I absolutely love the idea of a sea fort! I've never been brave enough to try it myself, but I guess now would be a good time!
