I had a really awesome fortress until a One eyed monkey titan that shot webs attacked my fortress and killed all 150 of my dwarves by kicking them in the head. The titan is extremely bruised in about every part of his body. I tried reclaiming it once but it killed everybody in about five minutes. Is there any chance i can take it back? And how should i try?

Figure out adventure mode and go in with lots of allies.....Or try to trap it inside yer fort until you can flood it.

[Loud Whispers]

Hmmm...  Webber... Yeah you'll have to kill it in adventure mode, or build some sort of cave in in fortress mode.

Ok... but how do i find my fortress in adventure mode? do i just have to ask around or is there some way to find it?

[Lich180]

If you get to a town nearby, the civilians there will give you hints about where to find it. You can also find it on your own, just pay attention to where it is on the map and try to start in a civilization that is nearby.

This is what I've done to visit my past forts, usually helps to be on a smaller map, so you don't have nearly as far to trek through wilderness.

Try a reclaim party made exclusively of markswarves and good equipment.

[Urist McDwarfFortress]

You might be able to start a reclaim on the same map, but just don't go into your old fortress until you're prepared with a strong military. Seal off the old fortress and start over, focus almost all your efforts on getting steel and train up as many elite marksdwarfs as possible. When you're ready, unseal the old fort and launch your invasion.

To find your fort in adventure mode, start a fort mode reclaim, remember where on the world map the reclaim is found, and then abort, make an adventurer in a civilization nearby and deal with the titan.

However, I think there is a better option: the titian will not always be in the same spot when you embark, sometimes he will be out of sight. If you get such an embark instantly dig in and seal yourself in. Now you have 7 dwarves surviving alone, and a surface defended by a powerful titan. You can have all kinds of fun, plotting clever operations to break into your own fort to get an anvil or another crucial item. You will learn loads about mechinisms and cave-ins (you will need to). Finally you will get to watch your conqueror god dismantle band after band of goblins and merchants.

I wish I'd met a strong titan before, when I lose to megabeasts it is because of necrotic paralyzing dustclouds.

The same way I did it in Markedangels. Just keep throwing Dwarves at it, and eventually, one will get webbed right next to it, and bite its face.
