A cyclops has come to my fort. I was sure there will be deaths, since I don't have military yet, and many dwarves were in the field, collecting arrows after the last zombie siege. The cyclops speeded to the main entry, entered, and just four tiles before the cage traps grabbed one of my miner-girls. He removed her shirt (I don't want to think what for) and grabbed her hip. But somehow she released herself and jumped away, a couple of times. Then the cyclops tried to hit her, but the shot was effortlessly deflected with the pick again and again. The cyclops changed tactics once more, and charged. Both tumbled next to the cage trap, so close...
But that wasn't the best choice of action for the cyclops: the miner hit him in the hand with a pick, this fractured the bone and the big guy lost consciousness. At the same time two other miners came to help, and all three of them started bashing the cyclops in the head. He even regained consciousness for a while, surely to contemplate on his sinful deeds. It took 29 hits of copper and iron picks to end his misery.
I was slightly surprised that the miners started attacking the enemy without hesitation (the two other miners were running towards him even before the tumble), not being military and all. But this shows that hard work forms your character.
