Im a little ways into building my first tower and I was wondering what a good height for it would be. How high up will my marksdwarves be able to shoot from?

Will it have fortifications?

F - -
Wx -

If that's the way, then they can't shoot  at x, right in front of the wall, but they can at -

F - - -
Wx - -
Wx x -

And so on... Crossbows have a maximum range of twenty tiles [Though I've seen this glitch MAJORLY, my legendary Dwarf turned into a sniper... not that I minded] but raising the height actually decreases this, in a sense. As they spend one 'point' traveling a Z level, so for every level higher you go, it also counts as one Z level further...

Yes i'm planning on carving fortifications. I expected as much thanks for confirming it though.
