I've been playing with the idea of a tree shaped fort. I'm currently working on the basic outline underground to see how to make it look best above ground.

Anyone know of a map with a single very tall spire in the center and flat terrain all around... Yggdrasil anyone?

Except instead of sap, have the viens of the tree carry magma and water. Otherwise a dwarf may come along and mistake you for a dirty elf.

Tree Killer. :(
What about a tree made out of tree-humpers? Now they'll truly be "one with the trees".

This really makes me wish you could make blocks out of almost any material.

A fortress made from your enemys' bones is pretty damn hardcore.

With [SLOW_LEARNER], dwarves probably don't sit around and talk anymore. They just stand in the same corner altogether, staring at each other, sticking their bearded lips out trying to make sounds. And giggling when someone actually says a whole word.

Yeah, just mod is stone that never shows up and call it elf bone or what have you.

I'll have to find a tall enough location for this megaproject.

as I said earlier, if anyone comes across a 15+ zlevel mount that is surrounded by flat land... it will begin.

Use cage traps to capture every army in the world.

Seriously.

Get EVERY RACE to siege you, and get them all in cages, without killing any.

Hard mode: Kobolds, too.

I'm planning to scrounge around for maps with lots of colorful stone and build a mosque. You could try that..or recreate real-life buildings, like the Blue Mosque in Istanbul.

My bad about the episodes. -shrugs- I've been a little off track lately and Dwarf Fortress and my car has been keeping me sane. (Yes dwarf fort is assisting in keeping me sane.)

But yeah, I would like to make the gungan-like city just cause I think it'd be kinda cool. I'll have to think about it more and see some more ideas of megafortresses.
Wait, the droid foundry?  Might be good project in itself.  Of course, there would need to be a complex series of screwpumps to send molten metal and magma everywhere.
