A fey mood inspired my weapon smith to make a gold serrated disk with golden spikes. Lacking any one to wield it I made a weapon trap with it(my only trap) and placed it just outside my doorway.

I have to check it regularly because julliened goblin and kobold keep manifesting mysteriously arround the trap. Sometimes in small clusters of 3-4 former thieves and snatchers.

I really wish DF currently tracked weapon history, because i'ld love to see it's kill screen. I'm pretty sure I saw that feature in the works somewhere.

Anyways does anyone else got any favorite artifact weapons they turned into traps?

Weapoin tracking is in the new version.
I once put an Electrum mace in a weapon trap it was funny because it would just shatter goblins limbs until it eventually cracked there heads open

One of the entrances to my fortress had a single weapon trap up the front I had been too lazy to replace. It had a copper dagger which somehow managed to kill nearly everything that touched it. But anyways.

I think the only weapon artifact I've ever had was an iron short sword. Lacking a swordsdwarf (Hammers are way cooler =3), I put it in a trap. Ironically, all it did was kill dwarves. It was placed outside my craft shop for all those failed moods I kept having.

I had a fort where I got 5 different serrated artifact discs, so I made a line crossing my entrace, they tended to knock bodyparts all the way to the end of the map.

I think I remember reading somewhere about an artifact adamatine corkscrew and an artifcact adamantine mechanism...

Put one in the middle of your barracks.

Hey, you'll get new decor for free every so often.

I stuff my back entrances with all the daggers left behind by kobold thieves. They don't kill anything directly but everything they hit bleeds to death within 10 steps.

My artifact bronze menacing spike(sadly it doesn't menace with spikes) produces a guaranteed red wound on everything that passes it and outright kills about 20% of it's victims.

You know, I'd managed to read that completely straight and as intended. Now, all I can think of is a fortressfull of dwarves with a very peculiar fetish.

This is made of epic win.
