In this fort I decided to experiment on using cast obsidian to build my fort. Hence the huge obsidian block.
However, after building that huge magma transfer system it seemed a waste to dismantle it. While I was building the tower I noticed that "my, pressurized magma sure travels fast" quickly followed by "OH GAWD PRESSURIZED MAGMA".
It kinda snowballed from there.
So may I present: The Dwarven Magma Cannon!
I confess that it currently has pretty pathetic range but it can unload huge amounts of magma near its target.
An astute observer may note that the ground zero is in fact directly below the cannons mouth. That is because.... Shut up.
The interesting part is the volumo of magma fired. The cannon was only on the ON-position for a very brief moment. I do believe I'll have to change the barrel a bit to make this usable. - Nahkh_

You need a magma moat. That'll stop those pesky wolves and trees! Also, the cannon is awe inspiring. I needs to be pressurized somehow.
