Maybe when Toady gets around to farming improvements you'll be able to fertilise your plots with charcoal, brimstone and niter-of-potash. Then just pick your plump helmets, wring 'em out, and mill the extract. 

[zchris13]

Imagine the modding possibilities on plants...
How about actually designing a plant that produces an explosive extract

Hopefully lighting will be implemented enough to have trap-lightable torches. Then you could actually have bomb traps.   
*Click* -> Torch lights -> Barrel of Bombbush extract falls onto torch -> *Boom*
Though... I guess Booze would also explode...  <.<;

Instead of extracting it, we BREW it. Then we have BOTH options!

[ArkDelgato]

Ok, fair enough.  Hmm, now how to make a plant which produces gunpowder...

This will be the first thing I mod in when the explosions release is released.

This will be the first thing I download and add to my fortress.

• Remove demons as forced powers for goblins and have such arrangements arise through mega-beast behavior

Will there be an option to re-add this to goblins and to other custom entities, letting you force any given race to take a certain creature as their initial civ leader?

OH GOD THE AWESOME.

Thats exactly why I think we should:

a) copy everything from tolkien

b) copy nothing from tolkien


you see, having this would be so fun.
but many people will come with "hey, explosive plants aren't dwarvenly" or "I dont see how it would be possible to have explosive plants"

Blow the poisoned darts at them, I say! =p

[Neonivek]

Some plants do explode in real life.

Though... not to an explosive degree.

[Mandaril]

Explosive plants aren't dwarvenly?

Urist McUrist: "By Amoks nose! It's a field full of turnips!"
Urist McFriend: "We are doomed!"

[ProfessorA]

Explosive plants aren't as dwarvenly as explosive fungi

Fix

I like the current state of being a pale shadow of Tolkien.

[Neonivek]

Yeah but Tolkien was a pale shadow of Norse Mythology.

Bomb plants (and explosives in generally, I guess) will rock.  Coupled with a more complex cave in and erosion system, well... exploratory mining should be much faster when a large cache of explosives is assigned to the job.

Plus side:
Fast
Cool
Makes big bang
Leaves big hole

Minus side:
Impractical
"Dangerous"
Ridiculous

With that in mind, I guess I would have to set up a Mine Field megaproject.
