Earlier, I was playing around in adventure mode with an elf bowman(just so I don't get hideously mauled by wolves).
There was NOTHING TO DO. Every town told me that they were at peace, except for one that told me to kill an alligator. :\

Anyway, after a loooooooong travel, I came across the first set of migrants I've ever encountered in adventure mode. It was a bunch of elves.
After firing unsuccessfully at some elves, I finally meleed one. After a small tussle, he died and the elves scattered. I attempted to kill some more when the diplomat threatened to kill me.
I chased after him for a long period, shooting him and throwing stones at him.
At one point, an elf caught up to me and tackled me. I shot the tackler point-blank and he passed out(and I assumed he bled to death).
Anyway, I finally managed to kill the diplomat. He pissed me off because every so often, he'd yell his name at me and threatened to kill me.

The best part was when I caught up to another elf. I wasted all of my arrows on the diplomat, so I just kept throwing stones at him until he fell and then proceeded to beat him with my bow until he bled to death.

It was fun... and it was filmed. I'll upload it tomorrow.

EDIT: Funny thing happened in one town. I entered it and everyone immediately regained consciousness and they slowing began becoming not-stunned.

EDIT2: Great. Made an hammerman and ran into a cave. The FIRST THING I run into is a GCS! D:
I am promptly killed among a couple of crystals.

Probably because it was morning and they where just getting up for a busy day of standing around.

"So, what did you do today?"
"Oh, I stood by our house, wandered a few tiles to the right, a couple to the left, you know, the usual."
"Well, it might be a bit scandalous, but I walked the length of the city. And then I stood at the other side of town."
oOo "NO WAY."

So... along the same lines, I ask: Why is it impossible to attack a "friendly" without using melee first? If you're sneaking and plan on assassinating an entire town... this is quite detrimental. Is there no way to attack a friendly entity from range?

Since you're basically firing arrows in a direction rather than at a specific critter, there would likely be friendly fire issues in dwarf mode if attacking friendlies was permitted.

By Armok, you'd kill your champions every time you went to battle!

You don't shoot at targets so much as you shoot at a tile.  Friendly Fire is not enabled with range weapons so you can shoot into a melee without hitting your buddies who are on the same tile.
