Necromancers should be able to reanimate the various half-digested things in a FB's stomach, command them to tear the beasts innards apart, then have the reanimated FB and its breakfast attack the dwarfs.

Okay, now that would seriously be wicked Fun.

I'd love to see some chestburster action in DF.

Yes, carnivorous creatures with a mouth should have an "eat" attack they can use on substantially smaller creatures. [...]
creatures swallowed whole could perhaps get a few ticks to counter with an attack from inside,

Hmmm.. War Cavies.  Loads and loads and loads of war cavies.

That is all.

The ability for a dragon to eat your dwarves whole would make it rather interesting to fight them in close combat. It'd also be at the very least somewhat amusing to rescue your dwarf after slaying the dragon. It would also be something interesting in adventure mode too.

The idea of rescuing dwarves that have been swallowed immediately reminded me of Tremors 3 for some reason...anyways, I like the idea overall. However, I'm not sure how fun it would be to have to fight a hydra or whatever from the inside in Adventure Mode, and it would be annoying if your best warriors got one-hit-killed by getting eaten, and dwarves/modded races need to be able to gain sustenance from eating creatures whole. Oh, and vomiting up indigestible parts (armor, weapons, possibly skeleton) would be a good idea.

My thoughts: If a dwarf was eaten by a dragon, and still alive and kicking, he would have to be able to cut himself out of the dragon's stomach. That would be both gruesome and undeniably epic.

Undeniably awesome, undeniably necessary.

Hm...necromancers animating flesh inside your dwarves' stomachs...oh god that's terrifying.

[Starver]

I am now reminded of the idea of sustaining oneself by eating just enough of a regenerating-beast's magical flesh to deal with one's nutritious needs without either overwhelming the lump with digestive juices and destroying it completely or not being able to stop it from regenerating into the full creature within (at least initially) your stomach.

Not much to do with this thread, but a strikingly resurrected memory.

[Loud Whispers]

So... An elf eating a dwarf which has a god-like healing rate would never hunger again?

[Starver]

If it ate just enough, yes, but one bite too much and soon...  Chestburster Dwarf!

(Actually, I believe it was Orcflesh in D&D that was being discussed, or similar, but it was in a thread with loads of other examples, IIRC, and my memory's hazy enough at the best of times.)

I now have the best image of an elf slowly being taken over from the inside out by a dwarf feeding off wild strawberries, before bursting out of it's skull in an Athena-like fashion, and becoming King of the Elves, and doing it RIGHT. Like a Dwarf.

Wow, if that happened I might actually like elves.

Might.

This is now on my list of challenges yet to accept.

Ever heard of black racers?

If you are fast enough, and big enough, you really don't need to mess around with prolonged combat...

You wouldn't need to kill whatever creature ate your dwarf to save them, you just need to make the creature vomit.

I did did the idea of in adventure mode get a nausea inducing, ingest syndrome-material on your armor to protect yourself from being digested
