[39a] Tunnel stairway broken by tunnel 'spiral ramp'
« on: July 14, 2008, 09:14:54 pm »
I was really excited about exploring tunnels, so i started a proficient axedwarf and climbed down into the mountain halls. Unfortunately the warriors there were too leet to want to join me...

But the real problem came after i found the staircase down into the tunnels. I had gone down one before at a dwarf owned dark fortress, but i ran out of food and water part way down the tunnels. My new character should have enough supplies to get somewhere (plus i wasn't sneaking this time), but i climb down the stairs, and theres no bottom 'up stair'. It go cut off by the channeled out tile of the spiral ramp thingy. Not much traveling there.

Edit: Screenie

I'm guessing that's a "Steel battle axe".

Yeah, I did consider that, but I wasn't certain. I'm sure a steel bat would be fun, though.

If it was a "steel battlecruiser" it would be a lot better. It would also mean your dwarf is a giant, making you an oxymoron. :P
