Didn't know to set up a pond before the winter so now I get to watch all my dwarves die of dehydration 😭 #dwarffortress
@mauve I did that to my first three fortresses. Never even managed to make enough beer to make up for lack of water.
@vdonnut Brutal 😭 Yeah thankfully I had plenty of food for this run. Hopefully next winter will be easier. I chose a pretty mild climate. My first fort ever was in the tundra which sucked 😅
@mauve well, I usually ended up with three-four barely functional dwarves who died throughout the spring because even if the water was back the food was missing, they were traumatised, and it spiraled down. I was sad for the migrants who arrived.
