Real Dwarven justice.
« on: September 18, 2008, 08:33:55 pm »

In my current (cylindrical) fortress, an example for all of the Dwarves will be set. Justice will be served. Right next to the +Plump Helmet roast+. Literally. I've decided to put the jail in the exact same room as the Dining Hall. They will be publicly ridiculed, they will be the mockery of the day, they will become tonight's entertainment. I hope this will discourage the others to violate production orders!

i put my cages in the room with my cistern, so they are very close to the well (less time to give water). i put two small jail rooms of 10 cages in a pattern that looks like HI

i didnt notice it right away, but its humorous enough that im keepin it like that. Maybe ill make another set of cages for another word? HI MOM would be a funny shape for a prison :)

Violating production orders is what happens when a noble says "Make me 10 crystal glass items" and you say "screw that." If you don't kill the noble before the production mandate expires, then he'll pick some poor hapless dwarf to get punished, either by jailing or beating.

My prisoners are crammed into 1x3 cells down in the Furnace Wing of the fortress; a furnace or forge, then a cell, then another hot workshop, then a cell, etc. I have a need for fortress symmetry, so my stockpiles dictate additional space between workshops in that area. I like to think that between baking in the heat radiating from the walls and the constant sounds of hammering and hauling, dwarves are reminded of the importance of dedicating themselves fully to the glory of the fortress.
