Is there any disadvantage to moving in a 7-dwarf team of miners and mechanics just to get a bunch of stuff set up, and then abandoning the fortress so your "real" group of settlers can take over?

[jplur]

idle dwarves that show up red on the minimap.

Though if they are fisherdwarves they will leave fish around for you to pick up.

Well, the mechanics wouldn't really do anything unless you've got that furniture and whatnot set up. Upon abandoning, anything that isn't nailed-down furniture is scattered about all over the place, inside and outside of the fortress.

Unless you like picking things up, it'd work with just the mining, and the doors.

[jplur]

Oh, I get it.  The mechanics are there to construct the deathtrap for the original 7.
