What is the greatest of all fortresses?
« on: May 12, 2009, 10:49:17 pm »

We all know the great story of Boatmurdered, but that was not a very successful fortress.  Is there one fortress has received the greatest portion of Armok's favor, more than any other?

Alternately, FlareChannel.  But really, any of the fortresses from the Hall of Legends.

Greatest fortress IMO is probably Nist Akath.

I personally like the nano fort near the ocean, however this thread needs more 3D dwarf.

I agree.

*Likewise huddles beneath cover*

My vote goes for Flarechannel. Or Copperblazes. Or Mountainbanners. Or to a lesser extent, Walledwar. Fortresses that impress you with their size and aesthetic and then shame you with the pathetic size of your fortresses.
