I assume this top floor would drop into a sea of magma?

[TD1]

I would assume so too. It just isn't dorfy if there is no Magma

[wer6]

naw, i'd have A dooms day lever, that droops the entire thing into the magma sea.

[Mesa]

Ooh, I can't wait to see people reclaim all these worldgen forts! Or scavenging them, as the case may be. 

[Dwarf4Explosives]

Or pressing random levers under the assumption that it gives them access to something, then wondering why nothing happens, just before a block of rock cave-ins onto their heads. That'd be fun to see indeed, and not at all something I myself would implement, not at all so. *whistles*

[wer6]

oh shit, better put that lever that kills everything into a deep chamber, probably with the AI.

[Dwarf4Explosives]

I have absolutely no idea what you're talking about. And anyway, even if I would, I'd make it look like it'd activate a different type of certain death.

[TD1]

It's all void. I am not going to be touching any levers now, 

You have said too much

[Dwarf4Explosives]

Eh, don't worry, I'm going to put it somewhere where only the fortress members are likely to touch it. It's for RP value, mostly.

You guys are funny.  I'm already setting up the "Minecart Tycoon" railroad game and am currently running a game where people embark on 1x1 embark fortresses to create a single city block in the mountainhome of the island where Twoflower the tourist lives.  (We're calling them "districts". Incidentally, each square of embark = 48 x 48 fortress squares.)  Once I get it initially set up, I'll be hosting a succession game where the entire world becomes a chessboard for two civs of dwarves - each chess move being an adventurer going out and either 1) finding a suitable place to send an embark or 2) killing off all the inhabitants of the opposing civ's fortress before retiring and then have that civ send a fortress into that area to "claim" it.  Eventually, the civ that puts their rival king in "checkmate" will rule the world.

I'm doing this all now.  Once the new version gets released, I'll be setting up similar games in that too, if not just porting the save files over.  In the mean time, though, why not come enjoy some pre-planning?

Remember, no modding in this succession world, so if you've modded in omnicidal suitcases, you can't transfer the save.

[Timeless Bob]

Funny you should mention that...
There's this "pairwood chest" creature I've been meaning to mod in, I just haven't really done it yet.  Well, first I'll have to figure out how to put in "sapient" pear wood, which drops "dragon fruits".  Of course, "dragon-fruits" from the sapient pairwood variety actually hatch a pair of dragons.  Since sapient pairwood trees are the "mothers" of all dragons, you can imagine how difficult it is to harvest enough to make even one "pairwood chest".  The chest, of course, will be as tough and vicious as the dragons it used to spawn, but bonded to one person only - in this case a certain berzerker geomancer Chosen One named Twoflower. (He learned it all from gnomes, except for what he learned from a giant serene mayfly...)

Eh... The stories this game can help produce...

[Dwarf4Explosives]

But can a pearwood chest kill off dragons?
Hint: Yes, it can do so easily.

Still hoping for the testing cycle to start this month...
