Hi ,

My fort is actually in a siege. I cant defend myselve , they are too much enemy. I want to build a wall to block my entrance and wait for the enemy to leave ( moreover , dont know if that will work )

The probleme is that when i use burrow with alert in the military my mason go in the burrow. What i to do is keeping all my dwarves in and let my mason work. Otherwise they are always annoying dwarves that goes outside , running to death.

I will be glad to have some help !

Add a section of that burrow where you want the wall (or better, raising bridge) built. He'll go to the jobsite across the space without burrow, but no one else will.

Dont worry, they willl leave, eventually. But you're more likely then they to die off.

I have foods and drinks , and thats the first time i try this tactic.


But the burrow trick doesnt seems to works. My lazy didnt go to jobsite and construct the wall

The building materials must also be in the burrow  

Include your stockpile in the burrow, as well as the wall area you want built and a place for the dwarf to stand while he builds it.  You should be fine.

Otherwise they are always annoying dwarves that goes outside , running to death.

So?

Anyway, yeah, building a wall is an excellent way to defend your fortress. It even works against building destroyers because it doesn't count as a "building" for that purpose.

Good luck with not losing.
