goblin live span? well i'd say about 2 min, 5 min tops, wait... OH you mean in world gen?

Nah they live for around 3 hallways

3?!?!?! dear lord, have you modded goblins to be replaced by bronze colossi?

Maybe his fort design involves short labyrinthine hallways? (see: the boatmurdered entry hall, which I only began to understand after modeling it in 3D)

Pictures exist, but it's hard to visualize if you haven't got any 2D version experience (like me):

# = channel (because the width works out better...)
O = floor
╬ = fortification

╬╬╬╬╬
#####
#####
#####
#####
#####
OOOOO <- entrance is to the left
####O
OOOOO
O####
OOOOO
etc.

The zigzag is lined with traps. Meanwhile, marksdwarves or ballistae fire upon the hallway through the fortifications. From their point of view it's like Space Invaders.

Just a note here, but for future diagrams you can just use the ['code]['/code] (minus the ' of course) and it will make all characters be the same horizontal width. Then you won't ever need to pick a weird symbol to represent something simply because it lines up better.

Theres the design hes talking about anyway, its pure awesome and ludicrously effective.

I'll have to try this in my next fort.
Then again I do have a river for a water trap >

How the hell does an immortal creature outlive another immortal creature?

It depends on whether or not there can be only one.
