Nice article, I'll have to keep some of the design features in mind for my future builds.

My survival dwarven fortress used to be a manmade hobbit hole... It went like this: This hobbit hole should have a lookout tower-the tower should be bigger-let's make a chicken farm next to the tower-the chicken farm didn't work so I'll make a throne room(probably the most ridiculous fact in the fortress's history)-let's add stables-walls around the stables-crafting room-furnace room-storage room-treasure room-giant wall with dwarven runes-dwarven living quarters inside the wall-archery range-traps-trap control room...

I stopped that far in but I'm still amazed my biggest survival Minecraft build ever (I need to find screenshots) started from a little hobbit hole.

In a hole in the ground lived a Carn_. Not a nasty, dirty, wet hole. It was a hobbit-hole and that means a dwarven fortress :D
