A Bridge?
« on: December 26, 2008, 03:19:50 pm »

I had just started a new fortress and I saw the bed symbols while looking around. I hoped that I didn't end up next to some village or something and when I looked I saw this:

I think it's an incomplete bridge... The area to it's left is a waterfall, and it's ramps lead to another built section of it, as you can see.

Now hollow out a valley and replace that puny bridge with a construction that makes the Golden Gate look pathetic

Move the waterfall to a better site. Bend the land to your will.

Where should I move the waterfall? I should deconstruct that bridge and move it more towards the center of the map and make an artificial valley.
Also, there is supposed to be a magma pipe here.

Find it, and submerge the alien bridge. See if it stands up to the dwarven stress-test.

So you could say it's a bridge too far?

I forgot to mention the entire thing is made out of maple wood when the surrounding area has mostly saguaro. Absolutely no maple.
