DF Gameplay Questions / Need some help killing this titan

« on: January 05, 2011, 03:47:23 am »

I need some help killing this desert titan who is pacing back and forth in my moat. He wont come out but i dont want to risk my axedwarves trying to coax him out as im just going to assume they will drown themselves. Any ideas?

DF Gameplay Questions / Good ways to dispose of goblin prisoners

« on: December 30, 2010, 03:53:38 pm »

Ok so i need some methods of getting rid of all these goblin soldiers i have caged, magma isnt an option and ive already tried sealing them in a room of fortifications but my marksdwarves dont seem to want to shoot them even with kill and station orders. Dont really want a goblin zoo as i dont have the troops to deal with a jail break.

Any ideas?

DF Gameplay Questions / Marksdwarves question

« on: December 29, 2010, 02:35:14 pm »

Couple of small questions that im hoping someone could answer

How much ammo can be put into a single quiver?
If archery ranges overlap will they still work properly without dwarves getting in each others way?
Does the quality of ammo or the material have more effect on damage?
Does encrusting ammo with gems increase damage?

Couldnt find the answer to these on the wiki

DF Gameplay Questions / Moat question

« on: December 29, 2010, 10:45:55 am »

How deep should a moat ideally be. I'm using a 5 square wide which turns into a 3 square wide on the level below with 7/7 water but i've noticed sometimes people will try and path over it.

Should I make it deeper or just fill it with magma?

DF Dwarf Mode Discussion / Apartment Block Designs?

« on: December 28, 2010, 02:03:14 pm »

I've started building apartment towers for my more useful dwarfs to live in. I'm sure a lot of you have done this as well and could share layouts and designs.

The layout im currently using
Ground Floor First - Fourteenth Floor

DF Gameplay Questions / What's a good year to start a fortress?

« on: December 24, 2010, 04:09:47 pm »

Usually i start around the 100 year mark but i've been getting constantly wiped out after 3 or 4 sieges. So i waited another 50 years and started but now theres nothing at all even though i embarked on a continent with a lot of human towns and goblin fortresses, haven't seen a single thief.

Should i start earlier or later?
