A Challenge
« on: November 16, 2011, 12:03:06 pm »

Bay12ers, I have a challenge for you. Can you think of anything that CANNOT be weaponized? After thinking of a weaponization method, think up some other seemingly peaceful thing.
I shall go first:

Migrants

On Migrants::

Store them in a capsule in an area above the entrance of your fort. When siege comes, drop them as cannon fodder. Like cats, they should be able to do some damage. Better yet as a "Anvil" on which your Military hammer comes down onto the Siegers...

On Soil::

This one is hard indeed, but I can't find a way to weaponize charcoal

This morning I found myself looking at the numberplates of the cars on my drive in to work and seeing them as tileset characters in ASCII... a silver Renault I was behind had an interesting scene of a Human wrestling a Minotaur near a bin.

Flaming corridors... Make a floor out of Charcoal then light on fire. I believe there is a way. Can't remember how... Fire Imp/Dragon's Breath only I believe...

You were planning to have a 15 year old magical girl kill Witches by drinking them under the table!? It's original, at least.

snow.
Good point, but that's just until we reach the point where snow is counted as another 7/7 substance like water or magma. Bury your enemies alive!

Freezes water, makes ice? does that count? ice kills plenty of dwarves.
