Does it degenerate to repeatedly kicking balls into a goal guarded by a 20 foot monster in an attempt to get high tier kneepads?

I'd love to see adventure mode and fortress mode merging. The time issue could be solved by "starting" fortress mode from within adventure mode when you assume control of an area, and changing the way time passes accordingly. Stepping down from the throne would allow you to return to the slow pace of adventure mode, but with the relatively modest ability to personally boss people around instead of the ability to magically issue the orders to build giant monuments.

My bohemian 90 dwarf party and engineering fortress was struck by three goblin sieges in a row. The first and second were someshow held off, but when the third rolled around, I just drafted my entire population and let them roll. These are some of the more interesting squad names found in the gamelog:
Squad "The Constructive Typhoons" has been annihilated!
Squad "The Decisions of Paint" has been annihilated!
Squad "The Wealthy Banners" has been annihilated!
Squad "The Safe Citadels" has been annihilated!
Squad "The Attics of Searching" has been annihilated!
Squad "The Barricaded Baldnesses" has been annihilated!
Squad "The Irons of Throwing" has been annihilated!
Squad "The Syrups of Alliance" has been annihilated! (This was my cook's single dwarf squad)
Squad "The Oils of Hair" has been annihilated!
Squad "The Slippery Furnaces" has been disbanded.
Squad "The Constructive Typhoons" has been annihilated!
Squad "The Decisions of Paint" has been annihilated!
Squad "The Wealthy Banners" has been annihilated!
Squad "The Safe Citadels" has been annihilated!
Squad "The Attics of Searching" has been annihilated!
Squad "The Barricaded Baldnesses" has been annihilated!
Squad "The Irons of Throwing" has been annihilated!
Squad "The Syrups of Alliance" has been annihilated! (This was my cook's single dwarf squad)
Squad "The Oils of Hair" has been annihilated!
Squad "The Slippery Furnaces" has been disbanded.
The third siege ended with about 40 dwarves remaining and two goblins trapped in the empty moat around the fort, interrupting any useful work that might be going on. The population had whittled itself down to about a dozen when the game crashed and granted me an unintentional save scumm. I'll make good use of it and defend the fort this time.
Note to self: Remember DF squads as a great source for rock band names

This is a ceramic mug. It is encircled with bands of adhesive tape. It is decorated with an image of a ceramic mug in paper.
That took way too much work.

I'd like to mail the donation directly, instead of giving PayPal kickbacks. Is airmailing mildly concealed paper money as risky as it sounds?
