A wall  of walls of walls of walls of walls of walls of walls of walls of walls of walls of walls of walls of walls of walls of walls of walls of walls of walls of walls of walls of walls of walls of walls of walls of walls of walls of walls of walls of walls of walls of walls of walls of walls of walls of walls of walls of walls of walls of walls of walls of walls of walls of walls of walls of walls of walls of walls of walls of walls of walls of walls of walls of walls of walls of walls of walls of walls of walls of walls of walls of walls of walls of walls of walls of walls of walls of walls of walls of walls of walls of walls of walls of walls of walls of walls of walls of walls of walls of walls of walls of walls of walls.... you get the idea.

And there's that wall of text we were talking about.

Hehehehe. This thread basically reads like "This is an engraving of a wall. On the wall is an engraving of a wall. On the wall is an engraving of etc. etc. etc."

My vote's for a wall of babies, to keep out arrows (a fact unfortunately ensconced in truth).

[Jacob/Lee]

A wall of wood to keep out elves
A wall of elves to keep out wood
A wall of bauxite to keep out magma
A wall of silver to blind all that gaze upon it
A wall of fire to keep out anything with a brain
A wall of pitchblende with a lever cover to kill all when bored
A wall of Nobles to keep fun out
A wall of orcs to keep the goblins out and dwarves in
A wall of wizards to keep in the fake and keep out the real
A wall of elephants to keep out boatmurdered's madmen rulers

I've just realized, what if elves aren't actually hippies and one with nature.  Obviously they use wooden weapons and bins and even sell wood in their caravans, they also seem to have a thriving poaching business.  In fact they seem to only be offended by the amount of wood and wood objects you have, not the actual foresting.  Could it be the elves are actually trying to create a monopoly on wood?

if thats ture then the elves are dumber than we already think :/

[bhamv]

A wall of biotics (or a biotic wall) to keep out Reapers.

I've been playing too much Mass Eff-ASSUMING CONTROL.

[Psychoceramics]

A wall of paper, to keep out rock.
A wall of rock, to keep out scissors.
A wall of scissors, to keep out paper.

I have deconstructed every joke in this thread into it's most primitive form. Except the infinite recursion wall.

[Dwarven WMD]

A wall of sand.
A wall of water.
A wall of silver.
A wall of clownite.
A wall of lava.
A wall of quantum matter to keep out anything the other walls couldn't.

[tomas1297]

A wall of Mobius rings so no one would even come close to your fortress.

[ungulateman]

A wall of railguns.

Seriously.

[Acanthus117]

A wall of railguns.

Seriously.

What about a wall of railguns that fire railguns that fire carp? that explode on contact, releasing magma.

[Grendus]

Things you left out...
Bauxite. To protect from magma.
Also, you need a wall of pure fire. This protects your fort from viruses.

The steel is magma proof. No need to reinvent the wheel.

A wall of wooden spikes hooked to a repeater, simulating a palisade wall.
A wall of magma, to protect against dwarves deconstructing the other walls.
A wall of goblins behind windows, to protect against anything scareable.
A wall of pissed off champions, to protect against... everything.

A roof.

[Satarus]

My dwarves shall be my wall.  Nothing will get past them*



*Until the squad leader goes on break and takes everyone with him.

[Opirian]

A layered wall is flawed honestly... sure you have a wall that is immune to A, but not to B, so you use B and discover another wall that is immune to B but not C. You use C and discover a wall immune to C but not D.. etc, etc.

[Urist McOverlord]

But eventually they break through and realize that the only thing on the other side is another wall, leading through the other side of the fortress, which would be outside again. Thus making the whole thing a wall of futility.

[AtomicPaperclip]

A wall of nobles, to keep out able bodies.
