Hi all
This is probably a simple question to answer and I most likely should just
try it out and se. However I'm doing quite well on my current game. I'm
wondering when it comes to mines what type of terrain is best? This may not
even matter but I wanted to know before going much further
I don't think it matters

From what I've seen so far anything over 50 is pretty much overkill.

HI Dark,
Interesting. In several of my games the goblins attacked from the
