Make sure to place cage traps behind weapon traps. When goblin squad leaders are trapped in a cage, his squad goons stand around him since they're ordered to escort him, not to invade.

Congrats, Psieye. This is the first time I've seen a derailed thread get put back on the rails.

50 cage traps + Mega beast in prison = Epic

Seeing a bronze titan rip a goblin in half is always fun.

My strategy is to just seperate the fort from the outside(and underground) world. Consists of a channel/bridge above ground, and bridges blocking passages underground. Megabeasts cant destroy bridges, right?

Tweak worldgen so I get lots of embark locations with a volcano. Channel into the top of the volcano and put a magma safe floodgate into the channel. Instant 'flood the world with magma' siege defence.
