Protecting my dwarves against the Giant Bat menace

(1/3) > >>

Patarak:
I live in a mountain fortress with a chasm somewhere around the middle, which means that it is populated by Giant Bats. Every so often a lone hunter will get torn to shreds, or a peasant hauling vital ore will incur their wrath. Even my militia cannot stand before them. Is there any possible Fuck The World mechanism I could use to eliminate these foul creatures?

gerkinzola:
archery... or you could pump water into the chasm faster than it can drain out the bottom which would have to be very very very fast

dukeCommando:
set aside two dwarfs, give them some plate, and make them wrestle with each other until they're champions. then toss them some swords and watch them obliterate everything.

Danarca:
floor the chasm over if you can get close enough perharps?
Will champions still be effective when they're dabbling in the combat skill they're using? :s
Didn't know that

Tcei:
Smooth and then fortify the sides of the chasm. Then equip all your useless dwarves with crossbows and station behind the fortifications. Alternativly build a roof and collapse it on top of the chasm.
