The article recommends the use of [[fire man|fire men]], [[magma crab]]s, and [[fire imp]]s in trap design. From my experienced, hostile wild animals will not attack invading goblins. I think they will still attack forgotten beasts and other uninvited guests, but I usually find fire to be woefully inadequate when dealing with titans and FB. If wild animals definitely never attack invaders, I think that advice should be removed. -- [[User:Qazmlpok|Qazmlpok]] 15:23, 3 June 2012 (UTC)

I have recently discovered that you can destroy invading army's using a river.

by being very fast and very lucky you can use your river or stream to you advantage(best used in locations were water is frozen only 1 or 2 months out of the year). in the winter when your river or stream is frozen you can build a wall and place a floodgate in the river or stream itself then by linking it to a lever or pressure plate decide when to <s>unleash the force of hell itself</s> let the rest of the river flow creating a potently deadly weapon. I have taken out an entire siege with one swift pull of a switch.
