Dangerous and very FUN megaproject idea [spoilers]
« on: February 16, 2010, 04:20:55 am »

One night, your philosopher gets a vision. It is a vision of hell, and the demons are preparing to attack. It seems the strength of the adamantine around their prison is weakening, and if you don't want the world to succumb to the ultimate force of darkness, you must do something about it.

The adamantine has failed, it is no longer any use for sealing the demons in. It must be mined out, and the glowing pits must be walled off with seven mystically charged materials, a sevenfold wall composed of <insert your favourite mystical protective materials here. Bone should probably feature, which would require a little modding.> Naturally, the demons will want to stop you completing this at all costs. Good luck. The fate of dwarven civilisation rests in your hands.

There was a time when cocksuits would have offended me. It's kind of bad that the time has passed.

My pick.
Steel blocks for all the war and industry symbolism.
Gold blocks for all the wealth symbolism.
Electrum blocks for spiritual value.
Silver blocks to protect from evil.
Obsidian because it's...well,obsidian.
Marble for prettyness.
Granite for hardness.

I would like to just use:
Gold, but that's inside a starship.
Wood, but that has been burned to ashes.
Plastic, but that doesn't exist in DF

Don't forget silver, but that's in the award for the most gratuitous use of the word "f**k" in a feature film, and I can't remember what the last one was.
