Put a locked door in a hallway with a 1x1 shaft above it. From the third floor (2 z levels above), dump heavy items down the shaft. They will end up resting on top of the door. When the door is opened, the items fall on the opener's head, which will cause damage in version 0.34.08+.

Just for the sake of comedy, I suggest adding a bucket full of stagnant water into the mix.

[zombie urist]

How 'bout a bucket full of lye?

[Garath]

think looney tunes, an anvil

[SharkForce]

actually, if you can find a way to make it drop water on them, you can have the water trigger a pressure plate, which means you can start up another sequence from it.

that said, you may have to settle for something that is alive and can't fly (i dunno, pig bombardment? traditionally i would call for a cow, but unfortunately the cow would probably starve to death and require reloading whether or not a kobold comes. maybe a zombie cow?)

What happens if you put a mine cart on powered rollers up against the door? I'd expect it to launch forward as soon as the door is opened. Even if it doesn't do much damage, put a pressure plate on a track on the other side of the door to activate an active trap - maybe another mine cart launching from further back with more velocity.

I think someone mentioned they don't pass through doors, though if they are opened for them it might be different

Would there be a similar way to use the various venoms and such that the caravans bring, like this?

I don't think there are any vanilla contact poisons.

Demon secretion coated socks?

You could surely automate the process, now that mincarts with occupants are possible.

Tae your average silkfarm setup, and use it to get deadly secretions on cargo instead.

Put that over the door.

For those of you living in Good or Evil mountains, this also works for Gnomes!
Unless Pseudo-Liquid items don't fall...
But coating will work.

Long hallway, pressure plate at one end and powered roller at the other.  Activate the plate and the roller gains power, sending the cart accelerating down the hallway.

have you actually done that or are you just speculating?

Gnomeblight. Modding booze to cause sudden explosion in Kobolds would work too.
