Does anyone have an idea about how far up or down projectiles can be fired from behind fortifications? I like to build them one level about the front of my fortress, and wanted to know if that is useful at all. | Does anyone have an idea about how far up or down projectiles can be fired from behind fortifications?

:I've had the same problem. I built a fortification to filter what travels out of my magma pool. After digging his way into the magma pool, he ran away from the magma, through my fortification. I hope this doesn't mean I have to worry about fire imps and the such. Could Toady have changed the rules for fortifications in newer versions? --[[User:Peglegpenguin|Peglegpenguin]] 03:26, 26 August 2010 (UTC) | :I've had the same problem.

:As I understand it, creatures cannot purposefully move through fortifications, however flows can push them through with no difficulty. | :As I understand it, creatures cannot purposefully move through fortifications, however flows can push them through with no difficulty. | ||

It seems that fortifications block visibility of some things outside them - while archers may be able to target and shoot through them, if there is a waterfall on the other side of a fortification e.g., dwarves won't see it any more.

:Dwarves have never been able to '''see''' waterfalls - they have to '''touch the mist''' in order to get a happy thought from it. --[[User:Quietust|Quietust]] 23:25, 25 August 2010 (UTC) | :Dwarves have never been able to '''see''' waterfalls - they have to '''touch the mist''' in order to get a happy thought from it. --[[User:Quietust|Quietust]] 23:25, 25 August 2010 (UTC) | ||
