Remember that this isn't something to win, or really even be good at. Instead this is a story generator. I like sprawling forts with dozens of faceless drones, but if you prefer a more intimate fort where you can follow each name through their life and untimely demise, you can change the max pop in the settings.
Work orders are your only friend here.
Are certain features still introduced when you hit population milestones? I haven't played since 40d, which was... a while ago, but I liked playing without worrying about nobles or the greater economy or any of the other features that complicated the game even more. Just a small band of dwarves living their ~~brief, hellish~~ dwarfy lives.
