Everyone, if you've ever created/thought of some design that improves efficiency/looks cool/causes slow painful death, etc. please post it.

As for mine: I'm sure someone has probably thought of this before, but here it is:

Basically, its a giant statue, of a war dwarf of some sort. except its cast from raw obsidian. oh, and the whole thing is linked to supports like this:

|====|
|====|+|===========|+
|====|            S
    S                S


thats a warhammer btw. = are full blocks, | signifies the "end" of a block + is open space S are supports. The supports are linked to levers, and skilled positioning can make it crush just about anything: nobles,goblins, elves, nobles, nobles.

Suggested Locations: Trade Post(for when you REALLY cannot stand those merchants anymore) nobledwarf's quarters (this should be obvious) Front entrance (for siegers)

The main benefit of this is that you get a huge boost in room value if you smooth/engrave it, otherwise its just a cavein trap. plus it looks cool.

MEGADWARF BONUS: Make one in every single room, to kill any dwarf you want

Actually it won't improve room value since it is in on Z levels above. DF room designations are limited to one Z level only. And re-casting it sounds like obnoxious ammount of work :p

It's a giant fucking hammer that drops on enemies like the hammer of Armok itself.

It's worth the work.

I'd build it of stone blocks for one reason: constructions deconstruct, so I can fill it with delicious magma.
