How many problems can magma fix?
« on: November 19, 2009, 02:01:30 pm »

Let's see if we can find more uses for magma than duct tape. Post questions/problems that can be answered with "magma".  8)

Example:

1#
Q: Troglodytes are attacking my dwarves! How do I get rid of them?
A: Magma.

2#
Q: My fortress is flooding with water! How do I fix it?
A: Magma.

Now, now, magma can't fix ALL problems.

On the surface it becomes lava.  Magma solves all underground problems, lava solves all above ground problems.

In order to improve the universe's frame rate, we must all throw rocks into volcanoes and then do absolutely nothing, worldwide, for a week, to take pressure off pathfinding.

I did initially. Then I thought, what if your problem is that your fort is on fire? Or magma men? Or everyone's favorite variety of HFS? Those can't be solved with magma.

With enough magma, anything is possible!

Yes it can. What are dwarfs ever doing on the surface? If your dwarfs are doing anything (not just concerning magma) that is not considered "subterranean" (or at least "dark") by the game then you need a hammering.

Apply magma, then apply water.

This solves everything magma alone can not.

Don't think of it as being besieged by thralls/husks, think of it as having your own personal moat of life hating mutilated menaces

Wait, hold up.

Magma forges = steel weaponry = dead magma men and HFS

Magma can't fix everything if the problem is magma itself.

Otherwise, it fixes almost everything.

Burn some dorfs. Less dorfs makes "not enough food" into "plenty of food"

Too much Magma = doesn't exist. Nice try.
