Visibly, my giant honey badgers get owned by normal giant badgers.

the honey badgers are slightly smaller, but they are more vicious, do regular badgers have that prone to rage thing or just the honey ones?

They're nearly as bad as badgers. Build a couple of anti-buzzard SAM sites marksdwarf towers and your fortress will look like Baghdad in 2003 from all the aerial bolt spam. You waste a lot of ammo and everything is covered in unslightly exploded buzzard bits and broken bolts.

I've been thinking about modding hoofed bagers.
Clearly, I didn't learn the lesson.

Hoofed honey badger-carp hybrids.. Now THAT is an idea!

...

Would making them have slade scales be overkill?

Only if you didn't give them adamantine claws and a mutant healing factor too.

As for memes, this thread started with the right one: Honey badger just don't give a shit. The badgers of 'badger badger badger' are too cute and cuddly.

I will second the notion that tamed giant badgers, even war trained ones, are not NEARLY as scary as one might think. They aren't even as scary as regular sized wild badgers. At least my war giant lion got in a few kills before the gobbos took him out, the war giant badger went down with one shot. Another giant badger I had got his foot amputated by a goblin thief, but that was before he was war trained. So out of two giant badgers I have owned, two have been utter disappointments.  Still, I would buy another one any time the elves how up with one, they make great watch critters.

They're similar to GCS in that they become nerfed when trained.  Thus, I support Wild Badger Pits.

So do I as a matter of fact. I've thus far captured 6 giant wild giant badgers and stored them in a room sealed by drawbridge. Next up I intend to design a recapture mechanism so I can release them on sieges that I trap in my depot area. So far they haven't killed anything and a couple badger men didn't stand a chance against my pigs which they attacked. Of course they both dodged into the volcano so who's to say?

Next stop: badger man entity that uses beast lairs and tiny hollows in hillsides roofed over with wood for sites. If only we could actually define custom sites :(
