− | As one can guess, a moat can be filled with [[water]] to drown sentients, but filling it with [[magma]] is obviously far more dwarven. Although a dry moat is perfectly functional, doing so will render it more lethal to enemies that [[Dodger|slip]] in [[Trap|by accident]], especially if [[Menacing spike|something]] waits for them down below. This is a double-edged sword, however; you should make sure there are no dwarves standing on bridges when you pull levers, and have your military engage the enemy far from your moat | + | As one can guess, a moat can be filled with [[water]] to drown sentients, but filling it with [[magma]] is obviously far more dwarven.

A moat can also be filled with dangerous animals, such as dogs, bears, [[alligator]]s or the ever-dreaded [[carp]]. This is most effective for dry or water-filled moats (since the animals will not kill the hapless dwarf that falls inside by accident, [[Fun|although he may just die of thirst inside it]]), but no one is stopping you from filling your magma moat with [[magma crab]]s. | A moat can also be filled with dangerous animals, such as dogs, bears, [[alligator]]s or the ever-dreaded [[carp]].
