Almost certainly not.  I've never had it happen or heard of it happening.

Is it possible for a "something" with bilding destroyer to destroy bridge?

Theoretically it should be, but in practice they never seem to.  Building destroyers walk right over bridges without destroying them, and don't seem to be able to destroy single-tile drawbridges used as doors.

Raised bridges are treated as natural walls. The destroyer part in relation to them means if something is big and heavy (trolls, IIRC) the bridge won't raise, and if there's something under them, I've heard they can deconstruct. I've never tried that though, my bridges don't extend onto solid ground just in case.

I've never seen friendly fire with crossbows.  Toady (fortunately) has not implemented that level of chaos yet.

You can have a goblin surrounded by half a dozen melee dwarves with crossbow dwarves shooting merrily away, and no bolts will hit the melee dwarves.

MoAr questions:

I know that balistas and catapults have friendly fire, what about bows and crossbows?

Is it possible for a "something" with bilding destroyer to destroy bridge?

Only ballistas have friendly fire.

Correction: Catapults can also hurt friendlies, but only if they are standing near the target.

Is dungeon master still broken in .25?

Is dungeon master still broken in .25?

Yes.

The most common solution to the absence is minor raw changes: Animals with the [PET] tag are trainable, where the [PET_EXOTIC] doesn't allow them to be trained without the dungeon master. Simply remove the "_EXOTIC" and you can tame dragons and the like.

Dungeon master sould come after achieving baron/baroness. Correct? He cannot be appointed, yes? Is it possible to edit raw in such manner to allow baron to appoint dungeon master? Possibility of taming dragons and others in undwarfly in my opinion.

[Lectorog]

As far as I know, there is no way to include the dungeon master. There have been some reports of getting one, but it's mostly impossible. Even if you get a baron, I don't think he can appoint a dungeon master (in most cases).

If you think that certain creatures shouldn't be naturally tamed, just leave the [PET_EXOTIC] tag on or don't train them until you see fit to. I, personally, believe every fortress has the right to have a tamed dragon, so I've made it possible. (I also made badgers trainable, but that's another matter.)

I think the nobles can be modded so they can be appointed by the expedition leader (or the player) but they won't do the jobs they're normally intended to do.

[Qwicol]

But according to wiki dungeon master enables training of exotic animals. He dont have to conduct the process.

[CapnUrist]

It's been attempted. Making them appointed nobles allows their existence, but not their function. You'd have a dungeon master in name only; he wouldn't do any more than your mayor does.
