Magmapipe Critter Elimination Poll

(1/8) > >>

CobaltKobold:
What it says on the tin.

Post your expected losses, too.

Usually make steel picks (- to *) and lure them out/kill with miners, lose about three quarters of a dwarf on average. Could probably lower this if I took extra time to make some way of dousing a victorious but burning dwarf.

If dogs are brought, and they don't dive into magma, it seems to cost about 1 dog per imp.

Karik:
I use marksdwarves, who usually have wardogs assigned, and kill all the imps with no losses, occasionally a dog if it decides to try swimming in the magma.

Skorpion:
Other.
Route the caravans over/around the magma pipe. Let them do the killing for you.

That's only for an aboveground pipe, though. Underground, just wall 'em off.

TKGP:
Initially I just wall it, then wrestle those assholes to death when I've got a bunch of champions.

ungulateman:
Live with 'em, or wrestle them to death with miners.

Generally one miner at most dies, if I don't have channels to prevent them from walking in a straight line.
