In older versions, you could play "checkers"--

but the new climbing and path finding AI mechanics may prevent this stratagem from being successful.

Give ThatAussieGuy a few weeks, and he'll have it figured out, I am sure.

Climbing at least shouldn't matter; the grates will stop climbers as well as fliers. AI pathing... Eh. Definitely going to need to be tested just to make sure it still works.

(What's different about the pathing?)

I also managed to do that for the first time ever. Couldn't block the mineshaft in time so literally all hell broke loose. I was wondering if the rest of the world is affected by this seemingly endless demon horde? I sense a sudden population decrease if they spread out from the ground zero...
