As well as the above, use colour coded blocks to help you in your design.  Generally it takes years to build a decnt size fort above ground.

Good luck!

The demon probably got most of his appendages cut off facing the other dwarves. He is probably just flailing at the dyer with his torso in an effort to wear the dyer out.

Either that or he's a snowflake demon.

Aircraft do not require friction with the ground to accelerate in the same way that a car or bicycle does.  It would accelerate at almost exactly the same rate as it normally and take off with ease.

I think the question has the conveyor belt moving so that it can't accelerate. In its essence I think the question is: can a plane take off without moving? If there is no horizontal movement can it provide enough vertical energy to beat gravity ( if the answer is yes, then it will fly. If not it won't.

At least thats how I see it.

What about using diplomacy to get out of it? Promise Brandenburg burgundy, and Austria Russia lands. Negotiate a truce with Scandinavia and you're set.

I think you guys are seriously overestimating the amount of rich people. Yes they could be taxed better and probably more. It just isn't enough to pay for everything. What do you guys view as rich? $100, 000 $200, 000? It seems like a lot to someone who is making $25, 000 but with larger salaries equals larger expenses.

You really don't need metal for traps. Wooden spiked balls work fine.

Think quantity not quality.

I think the answer is simple. Cannon fodder. How else are you going to fill up your coffins?

As someone who has played only Civ 5, I think its a good game.

The problem with Civ games is that they are repetitive and the game (in my opinion) forces you to build as many wonders as you can. This makes every game just about the same when you're attempting to do an optimal build strategy. (This only came up after 150 hours of play) So when people say that Civ 5 isn't as good I think they're just bored more of the game mechanics then the game itself. Civ 5 is nicely polished and it plays well. The absence of stacking makes it more tactical as you now have to maneuver to get into position. Which helps the defender enormously and the computer isn't all too smart about it.
