So, i built an elevated trade platform for kicks, and decided to collapse it while i had trapped merchants on there, so i removed all the surrounding floors and voila, the guards go into a chasm-y doom, but the wagons still stay elevated, taunting me with their hovercarts.

That sounds like bug 961, reported here.

[Yanlin]

Hmm. Can't you shoot the wagon with a balista?

[Chthon]

No, you can only shoot ballista bolts from ballistas.  They will not shoot wagons unless you mod the game.

Oh, it should, first and foremost getting rid of the merchants.  Then there's the other, better side effect of making the merchant's home civ really angry
