« on: May 25, 2009, 06:08:02 pm »

Mini-Megaproject, equivilent to Sneferu's earely pyramid exploits. If the fort survives, i shall build a mega project pyramid about 4 times its size nearby.

It IS in the title after all.
"Cat-Pyramid of Armok."
It must have cats and blood.

When I read the article, I thought it was going to be built either out of cat tallow or cats in cages. Or at least laced in cat bones.

Make the rest of the ramps around the steps out of precious metals and cat tallow soap.

The top should be capped with a cat statue of cat tallow soap.  In order to get all that soap, get a minor catsplosion going, then set up 4 butcher workshops on top and butcher them all in one go.  Have cat blood running down the steps.  Do dwarves get happy thoughts from blood mist?

Also, anything you can build out of cat bones/skulls should be added.  Lots of cat totems should be stored in a royal tomb inside, with the body of a cat inside.  Several other cat tombs should be nearby to serve as guardians for the cat pharoah.

Why not, to christen the advent of the Holy Ziggurat of Armok, the top cap is a cat-cage loaded to the brim with cats and make it go nuclear?

That would be epic, and Armok would be proud.

all the sides of this pyramid need to be covered with bone items. crafts, bolts, crowsbows, armor. ect.

and it should be with as many different kinds of bone as possible. especialy rare or hard to kill animals. or elves/humans/goblins. maybe even dwarfs!  :o

Put a caged goblin and ~150 caged cats on top and watch as either the cats are all killed and their blood purifies the temple, or watch the goblin suffer from asphyxiation from being smothered by cats.

Do caged animals hostile to one another kill inside a cage?  'Cause that would be awesome!

From the comments... im going to:

-Put butcher at the top, the cat heads will roll down (i have a cat meat agriculture on this map, hence the cat-pyramid bit)

-Cat soap statues at the bottom and inside
