[QUOTE="MarauderX, post: 911296, member: 9990"] [b]Fortifications[/b] There is, and has always been, an advantage for using fortifications, and dwarves would most likely be the best engineers for the job. Being prepared with traps and other seige devices would be the best for them, and they would probably want to turtle and let their enemies break themselves on the strong walls they have built. For below ground I would design defensive tunnels that would mislead, have traps, or simply split up attackers to smaller groups to the dwarves' advantage. Such underground places would be worked out in 3D to give the dwarves height or distance advantages with easy ways to break off battle in order to retreat to the next position. There would be many ways to funnel the enemy to small openings that have reinforced doors immune to fire so that prepared oil and such can be used repeatedly on the outside. Also, I would think that dwarves would be able to incorporate a fair amount of magic to help strengthen their walls, provide fire power and add to their strategy (just think 'dimension door' at dead end hallways).
