To defeat your enemies you’ll need a proper snow shelter to withstand the battle. Start with a 7 to 8 feet mound of snow. After an hour and a half wait, hollow out the middle. Keep in mind the walls of your fortress should be two inches thick. If you want to get really fancy use the remaining snow to build snowbeds and a hole at the top for ventilation.
