LOTR Megaproject time...
« on: February 23, 2011, 09:25:48 am »
I'm planning on building...You guessed it...

The Eye of Sauron! And Mordor!

A 40 z-level-high tower of cast obsidian!
With windows on the top, shaped like a giant, red, glowing eye!
And inside those windows, a pit of magma that can be directed down a slope, reminiscent of the glowing eye's beam!
Gates made of obsidian!
That open!
And close!

MOUNT DOOOOM!!!!!
WITH A LEDGE OVERLOOKING THE DOOM!!



Also, I must have an artifact named 'The One Ring' and have a dwarf dropped into MD with it.



Any suggestions on how to do this? :P

While you're at it, why not Thangorodrim and the Angband itself?

If I were you I would make plans but wait maybe..a week or so, until the promised bugfix-release should be a-comin'.

Lame excuse? 'Having a drink instead' is the dwarfiest reason to not get something done, short of accidentally flooding your home with magma. Or intentionally flooding your home with magma.

Thanks! I'm too lazy to read all the posts in there after work.

If you can manage to set your windows up in pattern to blink or shift its gaze, extra points.

You mean the ability to have endless training dummies, a carpet of eyestalks and tendrills, and a plant that both makes for some good grizzled sea man hard liquor AND the ability to turn your dwarves into the Night´s Watch...not reward enough?
