1.  Which tag in the TROLL entry causes goblins to bring it along on sieges?

2.  I want to mod in a building-destroying creature which the elves will bring when they are at war with me.  Is there any way to do that, without adding "USE_EVIL_CREATURES" to the elves?

I've never seen a troll be brought by goblins in recent versions, so I'm not sure if there is one anymore. If there was, it would be the combination of the trolls having [EVIL] and the goblins having [USE_EVIL_ANIMALS].

The best way to give elves a building destroyer is to give that creature the [GOOD] and [MOUNT] tags. Elves already have [USE_GOOD_ANIMALS], so when they come to siege you they will bring your building destroyers along with them as mounts, assuming that they are available within the elven civilization. You may want to also remove the [MOUNT] tag from unicorns to prevent elves from bringing unicorns rather than building-destroying whatevers.

I'm imagining elves besieging your fortress with ents.
... Dear God, it's an awesome thought.

I would make ents a primitive tribal civilisation before id let them be mounts for elves =P

Make more sense for them to have Jaguars so they can ride through the trees they love so much

You could add [BUILDINGDESTROYER:1] to unicorns.

Or perhaps add [BUILDINGDESTROYER:1] to elves?

Well, if you don't want elves on ents, how about Huorns then?

You never want building destroyer on something that can show up peacefully. They preferentially path to your buildings and knock them down, so when the elven caravan showed up they would run around knocking everything over before complaining that there wasn't a trade depot. Just generally annoying.
