If the magam overflows the fortification it will. I'll need a good drainage system.

Fire it over a chasm. Drainage solved. Or if you want it to recycle, build a catcher a few Z-levels down so you can repump it, while still leaving room for the potential overflow to fall into the chasm.

There was a thread about using trees to hold back the magma since ballista arrows can go through trees but magma won't.

If it doesn't work, it should. Things like this will end up on Toady's millennium-long to do list.

Indeed, I am pretty sure that features like this will get implemented later on, because as we all know...Toady cares about every little details thankfully!  8)

Alternately: The Brick Testament. It's a really fun look at what the bible would look like if interpreted literally. With Legos.
