Just starting playing, and really didn't like the fact that immigrants keep on flooding my fortress, I just built a DAS, I would like to know the side effects of drafting the dwarf to the military and ordering them to patrol under the drawbridge... I believe I still need to build stone slabs to memorialize them? Also should I be worried about causing a tantrum spiral? Thanks.

1. Yes, you will need to memorialize them, since there will be no corpse to bury.
2. If those dwarves are given the opportunity to make friends before you atom-smash them, then yes, you should definitely be worried about causing a tantrum spiral.

There will still be the issue that, once you get to the point of wanting more migrants, citizens of the mountainhomes will be too afraid to come to your fortress.

If you really don't want migrants, just lower the population cap in d_init.txt.

Just edit your init-files and change your population caps.
