Fuck descriptions, here's a Dwarf Fortress Let's Play. You can get it here, but its always a better idea to wander over to the forums, dig through the modding section, and find your preference of tile sets so you don't have to stare into the matrix.
That out of the way, is anyone interested in a bloodlines game, where we hand the fortress off every year, preferably posting maximally insane descriptions of our turns at the end of them, once the next bugfix set is out and properly supported by the third party tools that make it playable?
