Somehow the armour has become splattered with magma - maybe from magma crabs, or possibly from being left in magma for whatever reason (cleaning?).

You seem to be under the illusion that we give a shit about what happens to dwarves who are too dumb to live.

Is this in vanilla?

---


IDE/Theory: There was a dragon, and the dragon breathed fire on some poor shmuck, causing his armor to heat up to lethal levels, and it's taking forever to cool because adamantine.


It's the only thing I can think of, but the melting/bleeding would leave wounds.

Really, really nice idea.

The only thing that happened in general was the death of 71% of the fort, and that wasn't really worth mentioning.

Onul went to check half-completed shower system add found it completely dry and nonfunctional.Once it will be completed, it should be the greatest fountain at the Empire. But now it's just a set of supports, floors and statues.

Somehow the armour has become splattered with magma - maybe from magma crabs, or possibly from being left in magma for whatever reason (cleaning?).
- Hey! Did you have any magma crab invasion? - shouted Onul to furnace operators working at magma smelters.
- What? Magma carp??? No, we haven't seen any! - was the reply

I just saw a guy with two broken legs push a minecart with a corpse in it. Yeah.

Maybe they kept dodging into magma during fights?

Again and again Onul checker barracks for some hidden danger that could cause injures during training session - nothing! It was just a room with armor stand in it. And with one wooden training spear hidden under each floor plate - so called "danger room". But after first death he forbade activating them - that was the first reason he thought of. But deaths continued...
 
Sieriously. Give us a better hint.
OOC: Actually, I am caged by Urist's and Mormota's questions. I'm doing my best maneuvering in this tight box :D
Onul spent whole day thinking, thinking and thinking. His head was buzzing with thoughts. The clue was so close, he knew that!
Again, he tried to summarize:
1. It wasn't forgotten beast's or titan's or demon's syndrome.
2. It wasn't injure caused by fighting or sparring.
3. Accoding to medic's word, symptoms looked like death caused by over-heating. But there were no magma or fire near place of their deaths.
4. It wasn't any of cavern beasts' attack. Or dragon's fire breath.
5. Each of dead recruits choose an iron spear as his weapon, and mostly adamantine armor (but there were bronze and copper pieces, for the first time). Sure it's because of variety in available armor pieces due to hard work of legendary armorsmith.
6. No deaths were among civillians, including heirs of dead recruits, so !!sock!! isn't a case.
7. No ghosts were here.
...
Onul walked down the spiral ramp to third cavern and magma pool opened there, just to spit at magma and watch steam and smoke arise. That could stimulate his imagination.

OOc: Since .31 it's not possible. Steam became harmless.

Was there any channeling or similar around the magma in the area they would have walked through to get their new gear?  Is the armor stockpile heated by adjacent magma?  Maybe they're putting on burning hot armor...

-That's ridiculous! - said Onul. - Magma is fifteen levels down from our main stockpiles!

Danger room.
- I checked our danger room fukken dozen times - nothing unusual! Just training spears that getting deflected even by silk trousers. And why always ninth?

They got smoked to death.
Onul put his eyes up to the ceiling and made a few deep breaths. Then turned to that annoying peasant who bothered him with crazy suggestions.
- I think I know who's the next recriut in our squad, Roboboy! Don't anger me!
