"meng verylongchampionname has bled to death!"
"dwarfchild has bled to death!"
"Urist verylongchampionname has gone berserk!"

1 legendary clothier and 2 legendary stonecrafters later my squad of champions take him down. but not before he disables a champion. This was all during an orc siege. I don't know how he tantrumed with my awesome dining room and food. I didn't think having a wife and child killed would cause him to tantrum. maybe he was stationed too long?

[sneakey pete]

military dwarves don't eat in dining rooms last I checked, so he wouldn't have got that bonus.

[stormbringer951]

They do if they're not rationed food, surely...?

[puke]

i think they do if theyre off-duty.  if theyre not rationed food and are on-duty, im not sure where they eat.

[zchris13]

The dining hall.  I have watched them do it.

[Craftling]

One of my champions went beserk with his platnium warhammer.
I have never seen so much blood on one level.
Everyone died.

Ah, everyone had Fun.

Sounds just like my current fort-only replace "champion" with "wrestler", add in the fact everyone is booze deprived, and take the fact that the metal smithing area-including weapons and armor-is now his territory. Oh, and it turns out my legendary armorsmith is one of his "hostages". And there are all of five dwarves, none of which have military training, who can take him on (meaning they aren't some lame cripple in bed).

I once made a painstakingly intracite gobbie disposal system that left the bastards outside cages, with all their armor, linked to set them free with a doomsday lever on my fort.

It became useless because I made it too close to the surface, ruining the water pressure and my project along with it.

[Time Kitten]

When I figured out how to make pressurized drainage systems.

[Tenebrais]

Constructing a magma trap in front of a fortress. There would be a series of grates over a pool of magma which, when a pressure plate at the front is pushed, would dump anything on them within.

I'd already filled the magma pool, and was having a miner channel an opening to put in the grates. It's a one tile corridor.
He channels the tile in front of him.
He channels the tile behind him.

He channels the tile he's standing on.

Urist McNuggets has died in the heat.

When I found out the stockpile filter screen supported the mouse.

Wait, what!? Oh Armok damn it!

I use restricted traffic areas to stop that (one of my dwarves sealed himself in the Corridor of Ballista Doom's protective area) usually.  It means that they'll usually path somewhere else if they can.  However, if it's the only route to somewhere, they'll still go, as I found out with my Carp filled river.

WHAT.
