Waterworld - 211 Mid Autumn by Pkassad

Map Description:

I suddenly got the urge to build a fort encased in water. So I decided to build approximately a 50x50 block that was 10 z levels deep. The idea is to completly encase the fort, including the bottom. I will leave 4 giant supports for the fort to sit on, having an air lock that leads to the mines which would be separated from the main fort. So far I have managed to dig out 2 full floors and working on the 3rd. I just finished shaving the roof. Will still take many years to finish, but when the migrants come it will pick up speed.

Whats so "mad" about it? :P In my sleep last night I decided to install 6-12 pumps on the bottom floors that will allow me to pump out my fort if water ever somehow breaches the airlock to the mines.

Points of Interest

Δ 16. Gatehouse
Will have 3 floors above it that will be able to allow 9 arrow holes to shoot out of at once. Can station 2-4 melee dwarfs here as well. - Pkassad
Δ 15. The Causeway
When I finally fill this baby with water it will be a 3 wide path that will have flood gates on either side to hold back the water the grates you see lead down to the pump room. I will have a lever that will drop all the gates at once if I ever need to drown or block off my entrance. - Pkassad

Trade depo underground shielded from the elements and unwanted eyes. Quick access to the main fort as well. - Pkassad
