Build it in a public place and use that sucker for milling.

I did. It's now in the main entrance and everyone is quite happy about it. Still, considering how little of it I have I would rather have used it for making armor.

[fallofthechosen]

Built a complex above ground drowning/freezing trap for sieges, since I had run out of room underground. Didn't think to secure the
mechanisms/pumps/watermills from the outside world.

Siege comes, group of 8 trolls rush in and play bull in a china shop with my trap layout, and now I only have a handful of cage traps and weapon traps to take out the 4 remaining goblin squads, and a ragtag under-equipped militia to stop the 4 goblin squads coming my way. This will be messy.

First post. Here goes!

Spent such a long time yesterday setting up a proper danger room that could handle several squads at once. I believe it's 82 squares big, took hours to make all the training spears and link every single trap to a lever (kindof regret I didn't think of setting it to a repeater instead, but ohwell).

So when I finally have set it all up, dressed my 20 soldiers in full armor and all the other preparations, I pull the lever. Success! Everything worked, so I set it to repeat for a while, checked back with them a few times to look at their skyrocketing skills. All fine and dandy.

The next month, those alcoholized lemmings suddenly decided that it's bring-your-child-to-work-day. Four toddlers dead in 10 seconds flat.

bring-your-pet-to-work-day is waiting!

great quota up that by assigning dogs and or warelefants (i used to have a fort with allmost 100 bred war elefants where 2/3rd died gruesomely in the dangerrooms btw you can save alotta place by making one room for each squad with a 1*1 area ..encapsulated with very nice statues and engraved walls/floor .. thats enough .. they can dodge etc even when sitting down

like that ..Behold great Art!!

You don't need the statues, but i do think it'ds a nice addition since you can decorate all your statues with blood and rotate them out of the area as needed, nice work

McMayor is 18 (got the job at 12) and has mother, father, 8 siblings, 32 friends and rest of fort likes him.
