Got a few hostile cave swallow blowgunners squatting in the caverns and i want to remove them from the cavern for obvious reasons.
Exactly how strong is their blow guns and what kind of preparations should i have my dwarf take before engaging them?

Give the dwarfs decent metal armour, and they should be ok. The worst part about underground civs is the poisons they use, which can make your dwarves ill.

EDIT: A safe and amusing way to remove them is to do nothing, and let uninvited guests do your work for you. Though occasionally the UG dies as well.

That will also occassionally result in the amusing scenario where you have two legendary cave swallow men which decimate your military in seconds.

Steel would be good right? got a flourishing metal industry just not really a military.
They also have 4 spearmen. problem or not to steel armour?

That's when you wait for the next guest with boiling blood.

Just wait a bit and watch how some FB will slaughter the lot.

Then you just breach the HFS and let the HFS deal with them.
