DF Dwarf Mode Discussion / CAGE FIGHT(special edition)
« on: March 11, 2008, 12:40:00 pm »
one day a caravan of elves arrived at my fortress, as i suspected, they were ambushed when they were unloading their goods. they were slaughtered and i killed the goblins and took the stuff of the elves. i had to get rid of the shitload of cages so i decided to have a special arena fight.

1: A goblin(armed)
2: A (yes indeed) Raccoon
3: A wolf

the fight was short but funny. The raccoon and the wolf jumped the goblin and killed him.

but then the raccoon killed the wolf  :D

Features:
-Main arena built over a pool of magma.

-hyrdra-in-a-cage-with-a-lever (tm)
-Steel spikes on every tile, all linked to one lever (thinking of attaching them in a random pattern to pressure plates in the main hall)
-Floodable with either water or magma
-Fortifications in the "spectator" ring across the lava for archery day
- Overhead entry: 2 levels up, where the prisoners are kept is a pit covered in hatch covers. Into this pit the condemned are dropped (weapons and all if desired). The pit has a retractable bridge as it's floor, and is located above the center of Thunderdome.

Under construction: Goblin Rail Gun - an experiment with water pressure

A large filled reservoir with a 2 floodgates at the bottom release (one to a arming lever, one to the firing pressure plate. The "ammunition" is placed in it's cage between the floodgates and the pressure plate (aka "the breach") and the cage is linked to the arming lever.

The weapon is built into a cliff side, facing the map edge (30+tiles away) so I can determine if: A - pressure does move creatures, B - how much, and C - can you rocket something off the map.


My next project: the Goblin space program.
As the railgun, but the pressure pushes the victim up. Test: to see if the top of the highest Z-level is solid. We might be living in a universe where the top of the sku is made of clear glass afterall.
Problem - the U-bend bug.</STRONG>

this is genius, SEND MORE XP

it should look like this:
|~~~||..
|~~~|\..
|~~~||..
|~~~||

\=flood gate
then construct the mechanisms (3, 1 for lever, 2 for connecting) and dig the channel above the level of the floodgate.

i have this fortress with like 50 dwarves now and one they in year 3 when the dwarven caravan arrived, there was a goblin ambush. no prob, i thought. i was wrong. we could easily kill the goblins and as soon as the last one died i got the message there was an ambush and so on it hasn't stopped yet. and i use a perfectly mod-clean version of dwarf fortress. can anyone help me?

*PS* i thought gobbos only ambushed elven caravans?
