The problem with large creatures is the critical hit system. Mobbing a large creature with many smaller ones gives a large number of critical hit chances, any one of which could potentially disable the target. Unfortunately there is no protection against critical hits in the current raws, though I suspect the upcoming version's properties (like bronze collossi made of actual bronze) might change this. All flesh will not be equal in the next version.

I plan on modding in Adamatine Collossi.

For extra fun!


Seriously, it would be unstoppable. You can't crush mega-beasts. Its immune to magma. Its also immune to weapons. Immune to piercings and crits. Cannot suffocate, cannot drown....   :o

The sheer badassitude of either:

1) Encasing it in obsidian
or
2) Using cave-ins against it as the only way to fight it

is too much to pass up.

No, a masterwork statue of circus peanuts.

Current bronze colossi turn into masterwork bronze statues, anyway.

Artifact statue, please. It would be so incredibly awesome if the statue carried some record of the colossus (or whoever made it).

Which brings me to the next point. Enemies with artifact weapons or armour. Extremely rare, and preferably with a story behind it. Megabeasts would likely end up wielding (or at least hoarding) all of them, but just having the occassional enemy fortress pop out artifacts during worldgen would be amazing.
