I'm not sure that there is a "best werebeast". I haven't had many, but from what I've heard, weremammoths are pretty dangerous. I think that modding the save file of your game could let you give dwarves werecurses. If you're trying to make the whole fortress population weres, be aware that they'll break all sorts of stuff when they transform.

And yet another bit of proof that RNG is toying with us. We do 1984, it does animal farm

I have no ideas for this. I feel like this would be cake for someone who knows Dfhack to do, wereelephants or mammoths

And if anyone is curious I have a weretortise in my fort

Sounds like a case for ingenious dwarven science! Some tips can be found here: http://dwarffortresswiki.org/index.php/DF2014:Werebeast#Infecting_your_entire_fort
