Make a puzzle with lots of levers.

As for treasure rooms, they're a little pointless. Stuff gets thrown about when the fort becomes abandoned, so your precious adamantine armor (or whatever) may end up blocking the entrance door instead.

I think I might make a change of plans with this one.  I've been working on it for real-life weeks now, and I'm starting to get sick of it.  My dwarves are dying off, I can't get any immigrants, and I don't want to deal with reclaiming it.

New plan.

I'm going to finish building the pyramid and make a bunch of crafts.  Then I'm going to abandon it and upload the save file.

I challenge everyone else to either explore it in adventure mode, OR reclaim it and fill the empty shell with something amazing.

What do you guys think?

[Torak]

Ill take a save

[Sappho]

It'll still be a while before it's done, but I'll post the save when it is.

Or you could fill every single tile with adamantium armor and there will be no problem.

Just posting to let you know people are still interested in this.

Well, at least one person. Don't give up!

Building a pyramid? I'm surprised nobody mentioned this, but you really need to entomb some cats in there.

[Troas]

You should also have a statue garden - one statue of each type of stone and metal found on the map.  All should be masterworks.  Scatter the exceptional quality ones about your fortress to keep the population happy.  As with Torak's suggestion you will need to specifically make stones available for the construction.

As I recall, it sticks around if it was at a trade depot. Is this still true?

What happened to this? *Looks around*

[Dwarfaholic]

Make a giant puzzle thing with levers linked to floodgates and you have to pull them in the correct pattern.

Also add some "wrong" patterns which open doors to rooms filled with creeps. With bows.

Make a corridor with a pressure plate on it which opens a retractable bridge over the player and drops stuff on them, like lots of sand. You can have multiple ones in a single corridor.
For bonus points, make it also close any doors that would prevent the player from escaping.

As for the treasure, place some chests at the top of the pyramid and fill them with jewels.

To bad you don't have any magma or water. Magma shower traps and sharkfilled pools.
