    How long do you think it would take you to dig 50ft of granite with a shovel?

      A fair point!

      Mind you I've always imagined really high ceilings, a la Moria in the films, maybe 48ft with a 2ft floor/ceiling. Aiming a wand of stone to mud at the floor below a Mumak would be amusing...

        Look at the description of Greater Titan. Ceiling has to be rather high.

        Problem is that you don't really know that level below is right below. Game misses that old "you enter a maze of twisty little passages, all alike" when entering stairs. Angband is infinite network of levels, not one tower.

          Nah, Greater Titans are very thin and curled up into spiral shapes. Who said anything about them standing upright?

            I guess they're gelatinous cubes, not gelatinous cuboids!
