I don't have any arms.  I kick and bite things to death.  Does that count as un-armed combat?  On a related note.  Another one of my adventurers wields is own severed legs into battle (both of them).  Are severed legs considered to be a weapon?  He's damn good with them.

ive gotten in the habit of replacing my chief medical dwarf as soon as he gains any notable skill in diagnosis.
It's really funny watching them do unnecessary surgery because of a wrong diagnosis.

the conditions were bad enough to turn a dwarf who didn't care about anything mad, that's pretty hardcore.

Step 1: Grab throat
Step 2: Throw by throat
3: Choke
4: Strangle
5: Slash throat
6: Move on.
Easy peasy.

And when the site infiltration feature is done, we can do that thing where two short people disguise themselves as one tall guy in a trenchcoat. Except the two people in question will be halves of the same person.
The perfect disguise.

How can you choke?
Well, I have grabbed the throat of smth (rhesus) and can only pinch him....
Not even throwing is possible.
Well, my moves with my new epic wrestler/kicker:
Grab head
Pinch eyes until down
Kick in the head/move on to his comrades

Oh, and I always imagine a dorf holding a giant's head while kicking it^^
EPIIIIIIC..........JUMPKICK

My trade depot is set to flood with water at the pull of a lever.  It's deep in the tunnels with easy drainage.  I call it my "water for goods" trading policy.

You must grab with your hands, though I thought you could throw with any bodypart  ???

Was the rhesus standing or on the ground? You can only throw when they're standing, although unless you're a BC or similarly powerful beast they won't go very far - possibly not even one tile. As a BC, however... :3

 I just realized you can get legendary + 5 wrestler by changing your C settings to close combat and strangling someone untill you pass out from exhaustion, as they pass out before dying, and they don't die of strangling while unconscious.

 I now find wrestling very useful.

I use whatever hit the menu thinks will hit, unless I'm aiming for a particular bit. Once the skills are trained up it should mean some battle-ending blows against things larger than monkeys.

I am trying to make chickens lay bees as eggs. So far it only produces a single "Tame Small Creature" when a hen lays bees.

Honestly at the time, I didn't see what could go wrong with crowding 80 military Dwarves into a small room with a necromancer for the purpose of making bacon.

No, you're simply proving to those mincing dandelion nibblers that manly Dorfish teeth are more hardcore than theirs.

"You aren't hugging trees, just demonstrating your superior dwarven arm muscles."

I feel for that type of elf trick once, and while it worked out well that time (crushed the tree into an artefact statue of me making that statue) I won't let those elven infiltrators succeed with it again.

What?
Nonsense.

Cannibalism is NOT Elfish.

Elfs eat Insects, and Flowers. And possibly their own Excrement.

Dwarves and Humans Eat whatever they damn well please.
After all, its THEIR World.
To do with as they desire to appease Armok.
What next; Its Elfish to make a Rock Table? Its Elfish to eat Food?
Pfft.
