Currently building some civilization on an RP server I play on. Got the idea to build an oil rig -like mining complex next to a tree city. Hoping to get the players to fight each other for my amusement.

A hundred story hydropower damn with a underwater glass observatory system. Working with a friend to clear out a valley now.
First i built a skull fortress in a mountain i was near with underground passages going all over the world to secret safe houses in towns and hills i built now im going to build an all wooden town and set it on fire and try to save it while monsters attack so far i have a lava stream that i was using to make obsidian but i could divert it to burn the town i dont know i need to sleep and take a brake for an hour
This is like some kind of insane noodle incident. "Yeah, I built a tower... except now it's in the middle of a lava flow." One wonders how that happens.Rooster Cogburn said:

Prison.
The idea is to build a large complex with many cells, dark enough so that monsters can spawn in them. Of course, with the doors controlled by levers, they can't leave without me opening the cell for them. So I can just sit and laugh at the creepers as revenge for all the times they blew up my walls.

I am currently in the process of demolishing a mountain and only having access via stairs and at the top of those stairs is my house made of obsidian
Around my house is a first moat of lava 2 x 2 x 2 and then a second moat of 2 x 2 x 18 filled with with water. Near the door there are two switches with arrow traps on the side so you can only go directly in and I'm going to make the house massive so I can build other projects within the castle.
Oh and my house base layer is made of obsidian too
I have a fucking fortress

I recently finished my last big project: I giant citadel in the sky with an obsidian spiral railway going up to it, flanked by dragon statues carved from lightstone with lava flowing from their mouths into the ocean. In the center is a large lightstone pyramid with a glass floor, underneath which is lava, and in the middle of the pyramid is a steel and obsidian statue sitting on a throne made up of stone and netherrack. INVedit=most definitely used.
My next big project is going to go on the multiplayer server I frequent, and it's going to be a big ass obsidian dungeon, complete with death traps, pit falls, dead ends, mob spawn rooms, treasure, equipment to find, and a big ass chest filled with diamond blocks at the end for a pay off. I just need to finish the proof of concept for all of the traps I want in there, and then break out some graph paper to figure out the layout.

I'm...probably going to shamelessly copy that because that looks and sounds brilliant. How will you deal with skeletons that spawn though? Won't they shoot through the half blocks?Internet Kraken said:Prison.

I'm turning the island I'm on into a Fortress and a veeeeeery long "Train station" from my island to another far away island which I may start using if I start running out of materials.
Im hollowing out a mountain and building a doom fortress. But the doom fortress is underground!!!!!
Floating citadel.
It's coming up nicely. I have a platform with a water elevator attached to it, a spot for animals to chill out at (except I can't get grass to grow on the dirt... dumb doors blocking grass) and I have to somehow connect it to my underwater mine I dug up in a nearby lake.

What you should do is recreate the Pandemonium Fortress from Diablo 2.tthor said:
I'd do it myself, buuuuuut I don't own the game and don't have any spare cash right now (student loans will do that).
If I did have it, I'd find the nearest mountain and build a giant lava-powered lighthouse over a borehole straight down to bedrock. Given a lot of glass, I could have a lava fall as a light source all the way down.
I decided to just build myself a nice little self sustaining fort out of wood, with trees planted outside my door, wheat growing on the roof, and reeds growing by a man made swimming pool outside, and then I hollowed out a chunk of the mountain behind it and built a 7x7x5 (WxDxH) obsidian vault.
Now I have 30 buckets, lots of book cases, and far too much redstone
