Attach beehive to mechanism
« on: June 07, 2012, 11:00:47 pm »

Imagine an army of goblins, all assembled around the beehives outside the main wall.  A dwarf pulls a lever, and the entire row of hives is knocked over, unleashing 100,000 very angry bees into the ranks of the goblins...

Well, we could put two and two together and write a book: "The Shit that Hans and Max Did: You Won't Believe This Shit."
He's fucking with us.

While it's a neat idea, it would imply that Toady will code every half-baked trap scheme in.
Maybe eventually, just after we can create traps that drop vials of goo on the goblins' heads.

Just make giant (hammer) weapon traps have an area of effect that destroys buildings.
