The whole point is that you stick it somewhere where Dwarves are likely to fall asleep, being blendered will teach those bastards not to sleep on the job!

Urist McSleepy has been ecstatic lately. He was eviscerated by a legendary trap recently.

[Shrike]

With how macabre our dwarfs are, I'd think the assembled dwarves would applaud. Then invent cameras so they could take pictures.
Then invent an auto-engraver.

[Time Kitten]

Man, I feel sorry for that brave war dog.  He killed 4 goblins and repelled an ambush all by himself, took an injury and got shot to death by a crossbow trap dragged over 8 instances of single serrated glass disks.

[DarkStar]

As a question, would surrounding the trap with clear glass windows give dwarves the good thought 'Has admired an exquisite trap compontent lately', while keeping anything from pathing onto the trap itself?

[Michaelsoftman]

Their last thoughts *will* be happy ones...

Oh my, this disc tearing my legs and stomach to shreds is of masterful quality!  It even menaces with spikes of-

Urist McHappy has been struck down.

Urist McDwarf has been ecstatic lately. He admired a legendary Weapon Trap recently. He complained of drowsiness recently.

Is it safe to put an Artifact Adamantine Large Serrated Disc...

The disc itself will be entirely safe. Only your Dwarves will be in danger.

Sadly, bug {001002 ▪ (0.28.181.40d) [dwarf mode][jobs][sleeping]  hunters and dwarves without beds make the decision to sleep on traps, which kills them} has been, apparently, fixed by Toady.

Awwww.

I thought that was a feature!

[SenorOcho]

Dwarves hauling the unconscious wounded still have no problem dropping them onto traps, though.

[Sensei]

A dwarf standing on a trap will starve to death before they fall asleep, and probably go insane before falling asleep if you dump food and beer from above. I've had war dogs in my barracks go to sleep on traps though.

Anyway, just make it restricted traffic so cripples don't dump themselves on it. It should net your dwarves a happy though and goblins their last thought if you make a mechanism for closing off the sides.

Euthanasia, the dwarven way.

[RavingManiac]

Wait, so do dwarves fall unconscious or starve/thirst to death faster?

Also, I once came up with a design for a execution device. It was a lever, that, when pulled, would trigger a cave-in, knocking the lever-puller unconscious and blowing him into a pit containing a weapon trap. Worked like a charm.
