M fortress always gets thrown off by the first immigration. Of course,I am a newb so...Yeah they shouldn't come till you're self-sustaining, or at close to that point.

This sounds kind of fun, I may give this a shot.

i always use a low pop cap, since i tend to loose control over my fortress once it grows too large. half the population with no job etc.
im totally for difficulty settings. especially an 'easy' setting  , where immigrants would arrive far more slowly.

Well thats no problem. Once the Army Arc will be implemented, you will just draft all unused dwarves into your army, and send them out to conquer! [or fail badly..]

I find the waves of imigrants make things more difficult.  The original 7 and the first wave are the easiest, but when you get useless imigrants like another 3 dyers and a potash maker in a 8 dwarf wave before you get bedrooms made, or are busy juggling other issues, like repelling ambushes.

However repelling seiges with just your 7 or a lowpop fort of 10 or so would be interesting.  Without traps it would make for some challenging strategy.

Seige nothing, Ambushes are dangerous enough. I lose at least one dwarf a season to ambushes. Oftentimes if there are no merchants around it's too dangerous to leave the fort. I can't keep a champion alive for over a year.
