Fenceskull - 327 Late Spring by _nil_

Map Description:

the obsidian dome of fenceskull! many dudes enter, no dudes leave! except for traders

Fenceskull boasts 37 million created value, a trade surplus, and a population of 232 dwarves.

Point of Interest: 4a. Kill zone

Here, Asob leads a squad of 20 legendary marksdwarves (some are at the next two fortifications to catch those who break through here). One of the two surviving original soldiers from the first immigrant wave, he has 153 named kills, wears artifact leather armor and wields an artifact crossbow. Only the violet xelics make it past here with any regularity, even they only do so in small numbers. - _nil_

That's a cool dome, what use is th spiral staircase up the middle?

That will be my entrance road, designed to both efficiently kill invaders and to use gravity to bring their gear to the trade depot's doorstep.

Your dome is definitely not half done yet. Interesting Idea though.

How did the entrance work for you?

Sucks about the stuck guy, seems like a bummer. Maybe revert to a save before it happened?

I actually haven't gotten an invasion (due to the bug, mostly) since the entrance ramp was fully closed off. Before that I was having some trouble with ranged enemies sniping my staircases. Otherwise, though, it works great; I have huge piles of gear on a number of those bridges, ready to be dropped.

Also, trying out the new image tags:

Its turned out to be a fantastic dome, and living area by the looks of things. You don't see buildings like that on this world very often (can't think of any), really cool stuff.
