I bet you you could do it if you had two magma pipes, roof one pipe,use the other pipe to Ultra-pressurize the other. Heh the fountain you get when you open the roof would be fantastic.

"Yeah. My plan was to drop some kittens into the siege, and have my dwarves freefall into battle, landing on top of the kittens. The plan was kinda dumb though because the kittens were standing on grates, and the goblins killed them with arrows just as I was releasing the freefalling dwarves. So the dwarves weren't able to land on kittens and just fell and died."

Instead of causing your dwarfs to spontaneously cumbust imp leather armor ought to make them resistant to fire damage...

...the bones do. I thought the leather did too. I'ts just the meat and fat and gobbets that don't, I think.

Toady typically doesn't do things by half measures.  As evidenced by turning "make hauling work better" into "implement mine carts with physics".
There are many issues with this statement.

It's the other way around. The meat/fat/gibs are flammable, but your idiot dorfs don't care, they'll just chuck it into the room full of HIGHLY COMBUSTIBLE BOOZE anyways!

This is not a reply. It couldn't be, because I never read this thread. Because reading this thread would have driven me completely insane. Therefore, this post does not exist. Stop reading two lines before now, if you appreciate causality.

actually, http://www.bay12games.com/forum/index.php?topic=28695.0 is insanity.
And a good read and an important piece of work when working with the awesome mind of Toony.
