Battering Ram->Cliffs

Allow battering rams to be used to destroy cliff tiles.

hmm, very interesting. it would probably take forever to do though. i think if this is implemented that cliffs should have more soak than a brick wall. (how about you only 1 damage a hit? :mrgreen: ) not sure i 100% agree though.

Translation:
I would prefer if this was implemented to be a very time consuming process. I'm not sure if it should be implemented at all.

I don't see why cliffs should be any better than brick walls.

The ONLY thing I see as being a problem is the destruction of cave entrances.

Considering that cliffs have been explained to be simply a representation of a height difference, rather than the literal difference shown on-screen... well, would you take a battering ram to a 50m tall cliff in a hope of bringing it down?

I'd rather see stairs and stair cases implemented, or rope used, for us to scale cliffs.

50m is a bit excessive even for an abstraction. I can however soo taking a battering ram to a rock wall and knocking down teh cliffside.

Regardless. You suck for mentioning realism. I do believe the dev's will see gameplay valuable aspects to this function. Namely, the ability to terraform shit on our own.

THis doesn't address the issue of being able to build walls through cliffs.

Would help combat the ridiculous hearth-vault system.
