Actually, the Romans did something very similar with slaves who'd revolted: They lined the main road into Rome with thousands of crucified slaves to deter further uprisings.
Hmm, might be a fun use for caged goblins, but would you sacrifice two wood logs for that?  :)

I'd sacrifice one log and just impale 'em.

This is a fox skull helmet. All craftsdwarfship is of the highest quality. It menaces with spikes of fox bone and is encircled with bands of fox leather. This item is haunted by the ghost of Alfador Angrorung the fox.

We should just be able to decorate items with skulls...  I mean, come on.  Would you rather have a gem-encrusted throne, or a skull-adorned throne?

In Diablo II, skulls are gems. Valuable gems, too.

Don't goblins already skewer miscellaneous corpses? I recall people complaining that they couldn't take down and use the pikes...
