The way I see gnomeblight is that it's basically a dwarven rat poison.
Makes sense for them to stay away from it.
Very specialised rat poison, which actually has no affect on non-gnomes at all.

Ah right you are. But you get the point. Either way we could brew kobold bulb to make dwarven lager or gin. Anything really
Hold'jer horses, pardner. We can already make gnomeblight; if you want to DRINK it, you just need to mod the gnomeblight itself.

One thing, gnomes steal booze, right? ...So wouldn't this lead to them stealing gnomeblight?  :o

I also just had a human diplomat enter from the surface, hold a meeting, then exit the map via hell.... I guess he thinks he's pretty hardass.

Now, if you could load barrels or pots into a catapult...

That would be a different story.

Coat a rock in gnomeblight. Problem solved.

The ultimate in gnomish genocide.

Personally I modded kobold bulbs and valley herbs to produce kobold brew and golden blaze respectivly, both worth more than sunshine.

Im still waiting for the time when we can use anything as catapult ammo. People loaded the tings with coocking utensils when there werent big enough rocks, why not gnomeblight barrels?

DF is not ready for these weapons of mass destruction just yet. First siege engines will have to be improved, then the special munitions come after that.

Modding melting boulders still works. And exploding ones too.

No. They drink it. They melt when touching/drinking gnomeblight.

That's what I was thinking. I believe we've just invented gnomish suicide.  :P

You know, since kobolds steal stuff and gnomes steal booze....

Shouldn't dorfs hate gnomes far more the kobolds?

But dwarves and gnomes are close cousins, you see.
They're both small in stature, but have grand dreams.
They both have appreciation for all fine brews.
Dwarves consider gnomish booze theft to be nothin' more then silly trickery.
They're just the dwarves tiny hopeless brothers and sisters, tryin' to etch out a home in this world just like the dwarves 'emselves.

This is a side-effect of dwarven animal training (hit animal with hammer until it forgets that it hates you, then lovingly cuddle it).

I'm not your average Bay12er. I care about my drunken midgets.

Only if they catch them, they will chop the little shits up without remorse.

Depends on the government presiding. If stealing booze is considered an act of war, the Gnomes will be considered enemies, thus, punishment perfectly acceptable.
If the stealing of booze is considered an act of desperation, the Dwarves may give the gnomes some Dwarf wine, before sending them on their merry ways.
