Ivorylanced - 211 Late Winter by phaerin

Map Description:

Max deep moat, could fill it up with water some day, might take a while though :)

Obviously quite easy to defend, and the central stairwell interconnects all floors. A river was shut off to the east and a 5-wide pump tower was constructed to provide a giant 'shower' over the fort that runs down all floors to make some happy dwarves.

On the farming floor, its possible to shut the floor hatches to flood the farmland with water, yet there is no risk of flooding the entire fort as there is an overflow circuit on the lower lever that falls to a chasm

Enough rooms for over 400 dwarves, and the bigger rooms in the top quarter of the fort are reserved for any amount of nobles

Point of Interest: Entrance

Main entrance, dual drawbridges, smooth floor tiles all around and untouched park inside

Defense strategy, well - raise the bridge and whatever on it falls 15+ levels down to small pieces - phaerin

The HTML5 map viewer is currently in Alpha mode - I'm actively trying to develop new functionality.

There should be many very obvious problems with the viewer; please check the Issues page to notify or comment on the most egregious problems to help me prioritise. The most common will be Loading... with an error in the browser developer tools console. e.g. RangeError: Offset is outside the bounds of the DataView.

This is a very impressive microfort.

Are you going to fill the moat with magma?

Submitted by: phaerin - 2009-06-08 to 211 Late Winter

Possible, would need to build a magma-proof pump tower, done that in previous revisions.

Though now i can loot all the valuables from all goblins that fall to the bottom

What's the embark size on this one? 2x2?

I have a few questions, how did you build on the outer 5 squares?

Submitted by: phaerin - 2009-06-08 to 211 Late Winter

the stone wall of the outer 5 squares is native and smoothed, hollowed out and the pumps built in. There is a restriction of building pumps to tiles flagged outside and light, but no restriction when underground and dark. Had to watch out not to make any unnecessary holes, since if light shines through, can't build there

This sure is great. Good job.

Oh, you have to fill the entire thing with magma, it would be grand.
