Man, i just had the greatest idea for a fortress. It would extending all the way to the bottom and nearly all the way to the top. around the subterranean portion would be a 2 tile wide moat, leading all the bottom. then, using waaaaaay too many screw pumps and waterwheels and machinery, i would have water constantly pumping up to the top of the tower, and that would poor over the three tile wide entrance to my base, which would have two sets of drawbridges, 1 that actually lets my dwarves out, and another that diverts the water away from my dwarves, then i would have a base behind an artificial waterfall. It could just be a few z levels high, but what fun is that.

man i hope my sieges get that epic, on my first two sieges the retreated after a couple guys died. So i built an exit close to my maze, and when they finally started retreating on my third seige, i opened up the gates and my champion sword masters and other drunken machines of mass destruction ripped most of the 3 squad siege to pieces as they tried in pain to run straight past them.

Rogue bookwurm was about to play, but aparently he suck and after he fairled utterly to put the save file in his game he decided that he wasn't going to play in the game, so your up Userpay

That paratrooper pod would have to be filled with your best soldiers. Legendary miners that went on to become master killing machines in full plate armor of the best quality and material you can find.

You know what would be useful in this case. The ability to combine and divide farm plots so that you can designate them for the same crop faster or the latter case designate them for two different crops.

   It still seams strange to have 80 different farm plots. i have a population of over a hundred and i only have about 7 or 8 farm plots of varying sizes.

Well you know whats wierd about my engraver. He seems to be channeling my intense hatred of elves (i hate those hypocrites). Even though i have not yet siezed any or all of their caravan, don't even worry about me killing them (yet) my engraver makes about a fourth of his images as dwarves kicking elves asses. I like him, i should give him a good tomb for his work.

I (like many people) find that above ground constructions are a great way to make your base more versitile, and get rid of some of that extra stone. Does anyone have any usefull, cool, or just fun to build constructions.

I was thinking about making small siege engine bunkers. small buildings build around the map that allow you to move around the area underground and come out ready to do some initial damage to the sieges. I'm not sure how usefull this would be but it would be fun.
