So after killing the demon in my last Fortress I went there as an adventurer and failed.

In my stupidity I accidentally drained the river into the deep roads so have resolved to go back and block it up.

Upon arrival I get this message.

Let's see how it changes as I move on through the world and eliminate the demons.
Shall report in with blocking attempts and demon killings.

EDIT: The new place has three towers and a temple. The temple has a giant hole down the center and is full of water at the bottom, the floor being engraved. They have a swimming pool how awesome! The demon i on top of the temple, so i've cut off the ramps to give me time.

EDIT2: Collapsing the tower beneath the demon didnt work. HE CAN FLY.

I imagine him there going hey look dwarves. What the...the floor has disappeared. Ah well I'm here flying.

EDIT 3: Built a floor above him and dropped it on his scaly head. That finished him off.

Second age of MYTH? What was your last age? I really hope it wasn't Legends or Heroes. :\

Also: Towers without tunnels are easier to destroy, because you just have to dig the ground underneath their bottom level out.

Put supports under all 3, link to lever, pull lever.

The results are very, very entertaining. If you're hoping the goblins that survive will be trapped, you're usually out of luck. The towers like splitting in half.

Also note that even after towers are blown up, they remain as though they were still standing in the LEgends and Adventure mode.

It was easy enough to destroy the ones with tunnels, i dug under and removed the stairs then did supports. I did notice the splitting in half and wondered about it, but then thought it'd look awesome to someone walking past.

Also it was in Heroes mode before this one. What's the problem with it being either legends or heroes?

Edit: The new towers im working on breaking are half dug into a mountain side so i'm having to dig them out first before undermining.

Myth is the first age, it's when the most megabeasts are about.

This means that somehow, more megabeasts have been born.

Have you recently breached HFS?

Nope, just been killing the demons in the towers.

Can any other civs breach while you play in fort mode or adventurer?

Nope. Only you with your dwarven greed can unleash demons.

Are there any special changes you have made to megabeasts?

I killed one demon then moved on. That was that. Since then I've killed two more and am now working on the last demon. I'll say if it changes after I kill her. Also on this site, double ended chasm, one end is under the surface.
