So I'm making this church

For Armok, of course. It has 17x8 squares of movable space.

I don't know what to put into it, perhaps a small sacrificing devise (a small atom-smasher which kills kitten), statues? Lots of chairs?

I wouldn't it want to be empty all the time; not crowded with tourists either, but it should have it's share of dorfs. I have a statues garden elsewhere and a tavern, so those take a part of my population too.


Also, my first artifact was a perfect gem, worth something like 96000 dwarfbucks, can I place it there so the altar would truly be worth Armok?


Almost forgot, it WILL be larger than 1 floor high, it WILL have windows, and it WILL have tower-like pillars on the roof.

Build a multi-z-level solid gold alter. Upon this alter, put a square of steel-or-better upright spikes. Above these spikes, make a long execution chute. Drop sacrifices down the chute. Watch as the alter runs red with blood for Armok!

This is my standard worshiping method.

Sounds bloody enough to fit for the god of blood.

How does this churn thing work? A bridge system?

Sure. Or just pit prisoners directly into the chute. Whichever takes your fancy.

Make a small hole on the roof of the building.  Press i and designate it as a pit.  You can then assign an animal to the pit, and they'll drop it down.

I see. I'm not making a hole to the roof however, but instead use mrtspence's golden altar system. A golden box filled with spikes.

No, make something that preserves the skulls. 2 in one.

Blood for the blood god and skulls for the skull throne

Make some rows of chairs and designate the area as a meeting area. If you have other meeting areas then it shouldn't get too crowded.

If you get any statues of dieties place them along the back wall, so that your worshipers of other pansy non-blood gods can worship there as well. If you get any badass dieties you can place them at the front entrance.

This is a temple to !!ARMOK!!, not to your silly chaos gods.

And also, mod in a way to make bloodstone spikes.

BLOOD FOR THE BLOOD.... oh wait

Will this work:

And place a lever somewhere connected to the weapon trap.
The trapped animal (or prisoner) can only stand in trapped spot, and so will be killed. Works/doesn't work, preserves bodyparts/doesn't?

I say cast it out of obsidian if possible, with tall (multiple z-level) stained glass (multiple gem) windows, several rows of chairs, and an altar. The sacrafices ought to be ritualistic slaughter with a knife or something. If you want to be more dwarfy about it, I suggest dumping a small amount of magma onto the creature in a sealed room, with crystal glass windows so everyone can see it.

I made this, and it works. I need to add doors however, as when the puppies got impaled by 10 spikes, their bodyparts flew all around. The temple is covered in blood now.

How about creating a large bust of Armok with a magma safe crown and fill it with magma. Then drop things into the top of the crown from a pit at the top of the temple.
