...you know, I was hoping no one would notice that... but no, you had to go open your big mouth.

All magma traps murder the whole fortress.
I hope you've used magmaproof rock in making those floodgates and associated mechanisms. Also, some kind of system draining the magma from the _caravan_road_.

Also, am I the only one who's taken a wider look at that magma dispensory system?
A huge tube coming out from between the statues legs?
Must I say more?

 :P No draining system that I know of, the previous guy was the one who made the floodgates and associated mechanisms.

Is that a yes to me quickly hooking everything up?

You know, I spent like 3 hours working on this stupid magma defense thing and didn't even consider that I might need bauxite mechanisms/floodgates.  I should investigate that.  Also, whoever put in the waterwheels put them in wrong, and also didn't consider that they need a constant supply of moving water beneath them.

Furthermore, DS, your king is one high maintenance motherfucker.  I only got his bedroom to the right price level because I unearthed a bunch of jewels and then just happened to get masterwork engravings on them.

Well you don't actually need bauxite with Dig Deeper. Check the magma filled exploratory tunnels, some of the rock types there are magma proof.

But yeah, the magma defense looks awesome, make it so number one.
Maybe also install a water pump system so you can turn the magma to obsidian after use. Obsidian is easier to clean after all.

I guess Aldaris gets dwarven karma for Services Rendered for the Common Good.

The water was 7 deep and nothing was happening.  Also, I'll post a map.


Also, the king went insane because his dwellings were not lavish enough (I got to Royal Bedroom and Royal Mausoleum, but that wasn't enough).

Okay, when did locking the door stop keeping out invaders?  I got the magma defense running, but it didn't matter because the orcs piled in through a door in the back.  Since there were more orcs than I have dwarves, the fortress was destroyed.  I'm uploading the save prior to that.
