They aren't there for combat, just to get rid of trash stone without having to designate each one (there's like 5o rocks per square). Plus, when the goblins do come, we can set the catapults up on ground level and have Legendary Operators introduce goblins to the rocks.

Just anything. It's up to you, just try to leave some work for the next player.

OK  Parrot, what's happening? Any new construction?
Also, anybody else want to sign up? Got an artistic vision? Also: If you haven't already, PM me your Email to avoid spammers. Other than me, that is... Well, this might be a pretty short SG if we don't get more players...

I know what you mean; these things are hard to work out in 3D when you want to sculpt something. Some pointers:
Collapsing floors take out lower floors: This can help clean up after you are done with a floor.
Use [Shift]+V to show the visualizer. F1 should center the view on the statue, but you need to use the bookmark first, then Visualize.
Build bridges to connect to the statue from higher floors; otherwise, when you remove them...
SPLAT!
I always visualized a Statue of Liberty-style dwarf sculpture, but anything can fit there. You don't even need to design the whole thing, just some addition; for instance, feet of some type, or a pedestal. Or, start at the top with a head or two.

Sure! Or, two dwarves, or two dwarves and an unfortunate third one, or, one dwarf and the rest of that one unfortunate one... there's a lot of options.

Okay, I've started building. The work is slow with ONE miner though.

I give up. The Master Miner had his hand crushed in a cave in, ruining the symmetry of my statue, and the dogs WONT STOP EFFING BREEDING.
