I recently unleashed the

forces of hell

and wow... fps went from 70 to 25, im currently building an elaborate maze system where i plan on luring them into the corridors and dropping a few tons of rock on them, hopefully fixing my fps,

wondering if anyone have had this situation before and what the best methods of dealing with it are, besides succumbing to fps death =P

Let the whole fortress be slaughtered, enjoy, have FunŽ.

There's a reason unleashing the HFS is called "endgame" in the raws.

Yeah, unfortunately you'll never kill all the clowns. They just keep coming, and they are rather fleet of foot.

A good way is to make a long (depending on what type of deamons you have) hallway filled with  upright spikes. Now link the spikes to a repeater and let them come. Make shure the hallway is long enough to kill all of them. Remember that some deamons are more powerfull then others. It might even be a good idea to use a bait dwarf with a huge food stockpile and walled in to draw the deamons to him without dirrectly exposing your fortress.

Cave-in bombs work wonders as well.

Make a diagonal pattern of single floor tiles on supports. Cave in traps everywhere.

Once the initial wave is dead, you can safely wall the hole up without the pathfinding bomb.
