That would finally give use to those barrels of blood the traders keep bringing.
"Urist, bring the barrel of kitten blood the humans 'gave us' last caravan, the elves have arrived"
"Yes Sir!!!"

The interesting thing about dwarves is that they don't have an immune system, but rather the ability to maintain an extremely high blood alcohol content for extended periods of time.

Quite an obvious change.

Who would like to fire cats at the enemy, save+exit, mod cats, watch a nuclear explosion...
Also, firing that caged dragon, which then starts flying and spewing flames over the goblins sounds deadly.

"Sir, the elven traders are here!"
"DARNIT! LOAD THE CATAPULTS!"
"Sir, you just ordered all the spare stone to be dumped."
"I didn't tell you to use stones you hippy! Wooden catapults should fire wood and flowers... and launch the animals as well."
"Yessir!"

Elf Bowman detaches his head to let the lizard pass safely.
Elf Bowman has died.
Lizard hits tree and explodes in gore!
Elf Swordsman is stricken by melancholy!
Elf Swordsman kills Elf Bowman!
Elf Swordsman has drowned.
-The dwarves then die from the contaminated water.

Endless possibilities here, especially with breaking barrels.

Cannot approve more. This is one of the best ideas I've heard recently. Seriously, catapults should be able to fire anything, though heavier things should have shorter range.

Actually, given the upcoming syndromes and interactions this would be brilliant. Infect some prisoners/kittens with a zombie virus, then launch them at the elves. Suddenly the elves are showered with zombie-bits and start turning on each other in a flesh-eating rabble. Then just wait for them to... actually I didn't think this far ahead. Showering elves with zombie chunks just seemed a good idea.

EDIT: Even better idea if you could have a dwarven necromancer in your fort.
Get necromancer to resurrect some severed limbs
Load severed limbs into catapults
Fire at enemy

This guy gets it, the problem with the child torture dungeon is that they weren't set on fire first.
