Message: <blockquote data-quote="Mr. Draco" data-source="post: 2995890" data-attributes="member: 521">The fortress is underground.  This is key.From an architectural standpoint, an underground fortress can be easily made into a twisting three dimensional maze of tunnels and hallways.  Think about anthills--they aren't separated by floors or levels, their tunnels go wherever they're supposed to go.  Why shouldn't the dwarves build in the same way?  This will go quite a ways towards making the fortress seem different.Another thing to consider is the height of the ceilings.  These are dwarves with an average height of four feet, six inches or so.  Why not have five foot tall ceilings?  It doesn't affect them, and it'll be a pain for any invaders (I would rule that after half an hour anyone having to continuously bend over is fatigued, and exhausted after several hours).</blockquote>
