@Sirlulzalot: What?

@Map: I'm afraid I am unable to find the four towers... Could you post a few POI's?

Ok, one POI posted that basically covers where the towers are! Also: will upload this later, but I've made me some magma traps.

One issue with your siege setup:

"Both catapults and ballistae aim and fire only along one z-level. While ammo from both may drop down z-levels, they do no damage to creatures there. This also means that no "head room" is necessary - ammo just flies out, never up."

One way to solve that problem is to stick your ballistae at the northern tip of your entryway and have them fire down that.

Just a quick note: One of my mechanics has decided to become a crazy cat lady and adopt 12, count them, TWELVE cats for himself.

These dwarves confuse me sometimes.

Tower's look great, good sense of depth between the outside and inside of the fortress.
