There are two ways to do it: Either I fill the statue's head with vicious animals, or if they're in next version, I make a descending ceiling to act like a gigantic wine press.

Ah, yes, the Chateau Dwarf vintage 305, an excellent red wine.

I'm talking about the bronze colossus. It's supposed to be made entirely of bronze.
But really he's just a softie inside. They all are really. When megabeasts come to your fort you never welcome them inside and give them a hug, do you. You heartless bastards...

wait... what other liquids will flow? can I finally make a booze fountain?
a booze tower?
Will the vomitorium at the entrance have to have gutters and/or floor grates installed?

Will ice chunks melt properly into flowing water? (who cares about that)

Toady typically doesn't do things by half measures.  As evidenced by turning "make hauling work better" into "implement mine carts with physics".
There are many issues with this statement.

Maybe fortress built into walls of bottomless pit (or hanging in the middle of such pit by means of some supports). Or glass city of domes and corridors in big dug-out hole, which will be filled with water after construction is done.

It's black as pitch 'cause we're trapped by our violent souls
In a deep mine, where deep rhymes won't keep my self-control
Too many foes, we feel snakebit, and we won't take it
Enemies need their face hit, we goin' ape shit!

I think that for the next release you'd still have to cheat by having flowing water that you stain with the blood of corpses so that it runs red.

Dammit.

Okay, I could just rig a waterfall up and have the goblins shot to death while in the head, then flush them out. It should work.

Red with blood.

  • Recreate a town from any D&D book ^^

I finally have something to do with this old Greyhawk city compendium.
Anyone ever think of making the "Tomb of Horrors" for a megaproject?


Of course, this is a bit more abstract than how a dedicated dorf would render it.

Definitely worth it (or a mentioned in Adventure Mode Board) for adventurers.

Each square on that map should be about 16 (4x4) squares in DF; if we assume a tile is 2.5x2.5x6.25 feet in size (best size estimate based on water volumes).

Wait. You mean I painstakingly dug out every square inch of this:
Spoiler (click to show/hide)
Just to find out there will be natural versions available to me from day 1 of the next version?  :'(

Perhaps a booze thrower? although the question then becomes how to ignite it?

Dwarf!  Indeed, a devious delight fond of drink and industry deceived as both do-gooder and devil by the delusions of deities.  This demander, no daft demeanor, is a driving force of the deadly diocese, now disappointed, delirious from goblin deception.  However, this delicious derangement of a demolished diamond stands determined!

What about vomit? Crap? Syrup? A blend of the 3?
