Couldnt you put a lignite pillar right next to the trap and light that on fire? Would amount to nearly the same thing. Though the trap itself is not on fire a creature on the trap is likely to get burnt. Better yet you could surround said trap with burning lignite pillars.

Yes. Yes, it would. And it appears to affect humans as well.
Well they are often allies afterall. Haven't you ever been sieged by humans because you pissed off the elves?

Yes, I was fortunate to read this post at the end of winter. I immediately started making cloth from the few thousand rope reed I have laying around. The Elves indeed brought 0 bins of cloth. This is quite the fortunate find as it could free up alot of space on the dwarven caravan that is usually taken up by cloth. I will expand this !!SCIENCE!! to include leather. I'll test it on the human caravan.

Well what you could do then, just for the sheer audacity of it, is build a regular water moat filled with crocs INSIDE a magma moat.

Rookery tower, Bell/maesters tower, and outer walls finished. I also made a well house for the central well. The bell/maesters tower contains a massive brass bell complete with clapper.
and an overview,
The proportion of the bell is off, I was going for Notre Dame type church bell. The only way to make it smaller though is to not include the clapper. That big thing is hollow inside.

lol these forums... the guys asked a simple enough question and one guy answered, out of two pages.
The rest of us gave (nonsense) advice on how to treat the war leader in question. As well, somehow the topic turned to Medieval 2.

DF Modding / Re: Need Stonesense pictures couple metals

DF Modding / Need Stonesense pictures couple metals
« on: November 06, 2010, 01:33:24 pm »
Edit: Nevermind, I changed the value of Iron, gold, and silver temporarily to that of the metals I needed to look at. Thanks anyway.
Wasn't quite sure where to post this request, it seemed this would be the best place.
If anyone has a picture of what brass, bronze, and bismuth bronze look like as walls in stonesense I would greatly appreciate it.
I am currently running at a low 10 fps on my current megaproject and as such each season takes roughly 2 hours or so. I just put in requests with the dwarf caravan for brass, bronze, and bismuth bronze. I am going to make a bell tower complete with a bell but I don't know which of these metals will look better. Traditionally bells were made from bronze, sometimes iron or brass were used as well. Iron is out I know that is black in stonesense. If anyone can help me out that would be great, I currently have none of the mentioned metals or I would check it myself.
The reason I'd like to see it before hand is so I can plan the bell tower to match the color as I can build that while waiting for the metal.
Thanks in advance

You can simply deconstruct the trade depot while they are still in it. They will leave and you can keep all the goods.

Did you embark on an island? The goblins might not be able to reach you. Have you had thieves? Have you had caravans from other races?
