[Urist Imiknorris]

But what should I do with the keep?

An aboveground fortress is in the works. Sand, but no magma.

[Grendus]

I assume this is about embarking on a human town? Undermine it and cave the whole thing in, they won't mind. Well, they will, but they won't be able to complain...

[Safe-Keeper]

If you for some reason have a problem with the humans at your site, can't you just wall them in with a giant wall?

[Lordinquisitor]

Play around a bit.

E.g. upon embarking immediately dig down and pretend to be hiding. Then undermine some houses. Or if you see some house next to a hill dig into the house, remove everything inside, go back and replace the wall.

Sneaky ninja dwarves, coming out the walls!

[Argonnek]

You could remove all of the flooring of the keep for quick blocks.

[glueheaded]

construction removal takes ages though.

I say undermine the whole thing. It will take longer but it would be muc hmore satisfying

[Edzako]

Build giant wall around it and teach humies how to swim...

or die.

[wagawaga]

Build giant wall around it and teach humies how to swim... in magma

or die.

fix'd

or dome the keep, just leave one hole opened and use it as a goblin prisoner pit.

[Phantom]

No Magma at human towns y'know.

[Quantum Toast]

Three words.

Giant, glass, and dome.

Extra points if you can make it work as a snowglobe.

[Quietust]

No Magma at human towns y'know.

I seem to recall somebody who found a magma pipe either within a Human town or close enough nearby that it could be included in the embark region.

[XSI]

No Magma at human towns y'know.

That completely depends on the world gen.

I've once started adventure mode as a human, walked out of the starting house, and was (Almost)instantly fried by a fire imp that jumped out of an open magma pipe in the middle of the town.

Shortest adventure ever.

[The Mad Engineer]

1:  Mine tunnels to all the buildings in the town, connected to a huge cavern, marking it as a dump site
2:  Mark all the "Rope reed thongs" and other undergarments of the human populace for dumping
3:
4:  PROFIT!

[Rotten]

Step 1: Collect 100 goblins in cages

Step 2: Collect 100 kittens in cages

Step 3: Capture 1 dragon in a cage

Step 4: Giant glass dome, with airlock door to fortress

Step 5: Build cages (including dragon) around town

Step 6: Hook all up to lever

Step 7: Seal airlock

Step 8: Pull lever

Step 9: Hilarity and Fun

I found a human town with a magma cistern in its TEMPLE.

It was useless to me though. So little, and no magma buildings.
