Toady naturally spits magma. This is fact.

I have a bunch of war honey-badgers and their lethality is disappointing.

They have disappointed you for THE LAST TIME!

Alternately, if you want them to survive, chain them on a narrow platform with magma on all sides of it. Enemies dodge the badger and fall in the magma.

Forgotten Beasts seem to be akin to Toady playing Dwarven Roulette with your fortress, as they can be anything from harmless giant worms made of mud to necrotic-gas spewing nigh-invunerable iron hydras of doom.

Magma mist is far dwarfier.

The circus. You can't use magma to improve it.

You can use magma and water to kill HFS. Probably.

Goblinfall defence system: embark surrounded by walls (not bridges, walls 5 tiles from edge), the only entrances are pairs of 15 z-level tall stairs connected by 1-wide floors full of weapon traps. Menrchants and migrants come safely, goblins dodge traps, and fall. (I had some military fight on top of that, and "dodge", which resulted in Dwarf deaths, which makes this Dwarfy). This design can be improved by putting refuse pile under it, so goblins just rot there, butcher and tanner for random animals, some cage traps, wall protecting from goblin archers, and kitty lookout towers for ambushes, but not magma. Putting magma under it would make goblinite unharvestable. Harvesting just metal would require periodic draining of said magma, and that's inefficient. The only way I can think of, this would be better with magma is by adding a small pool or shaft to magma for dumping stuff, but that's easier done with atom smasher anyway.

Now here's a thought. Can you improve Toady with magma?
There's only one way to find out!

Tooaaaaadyyyyy, where are youuu?

Alright, maybe the Almighty Toad and magma wouldn't be such a great idea...
