XIII Any threat to dwarvenkind is to be dealt with an appropriate amount of violence.
Amendment 1: A threat to dwarvenkind may consist of but is not limited to nobles, cats, tree hippies, goblin invaders, beasts, demons or fps loss.
Amendment 2: Appropriate is a synonym of excessive.
Amendment 3: Elaborate and massive death traps are not just preferred but mandatory, the fortress shall be one enormous death trap in itself.
Amendment 4: Collateral damage is always acceptable, provided the threat was removed.

It's known as the Oppai-Kaiju effect. The islands of Japan generate a sort anti-gravity field, which allows breasts to behave as if in microgravity. It's also what allows Godzilla and friends to become 50 stories tall, and lets ninjas run up the side of a skyscraper.

Flooding the area with magma removes blood, dust, vomit, goo, mud, and dwarves.
