Who's to say that the Titan's always going to be your primary concern, and you have the time to focus long enough to pull it?
Trust me. For this instance, those are way better.

Well, let's put it this way: That design would require several components:
1: Two supports, on each end of wherever you want your bridge.
2: Two floors, on top of each support.
3: A bridge in between the floors,
And finally 4: A Pressure-Plate linked to both supports, so that they will collapse, thus bringing the Titan down.

348
Huh. What, should we wait until the Era of Revival, or something?

Just do it the standard way: A floor and a support, and a pressure-plate about two tiles away.

I have begun a prototype-testing chamber. For now, the moving parts, such as floodgates and water and such, will not be implemented..This was mostly due to the surprise visit of two child immigrants I got in the spring, forcing me to rush to complete a chamber.
Currently, I have made the two following improvements on the chamber:
1: There is now a bridge over the chamber. This is not only to drop in food supplies, if those become dangerously low, but is also there in case I need to drop in more animals.
2: I have made a down-stairs department in front of the bridge-gate, where the food is stored at the beginning of the project.

351
Yeah.
And I never see elves or Dwarves.
What, did the Humans steal all of their goods at the trade depot, then kill them off?

Skin allow for pain. Painless dwarves fight better. Therefore; skin and fat both need to be removed.
Anyway, there're a couple of FBs that just plain remove fat and skin. The problem is, it's less controllable then, say, a cave-in over magma at certain intervals.

That's why I'm working on the designs of new chambers, that will hopefully preserve their sanity long enough for the first step.
Hopefully, that I've proposed already should work.

Don't be ridiculous. That's just plain impossible!
The steel-grafting, by the way, is possible via making steel molten by..Apparently..Dropping steel from great heights into a bunch of water..And then you just have your dwarf swim through it.
I guess he'd have to be naked for it to work, though.

Maybe..
..Whenever the update allowing us to invade people comes out..
..We can get the kids through only TEN years, then let them get kidnapped, tortured for a year, then reclaimed, have their skin burned off, replace it with steel-grafted skin(Purely for the aesthetics,) and make them our finest military officers.

Insane? Well, yeah, I see that.
But I myself believe it is not yet complex enough, nor is it wasting enough resources.
But until I can find an extremely complicated and extremely wasteful way to create Magma-Mist, it will just have to stay that way.

Butcher/Grower
Butcher/Tanner
Butcher/Grower
Miner/Mason
Cook/Brewer
Herbalist/Grower
Accountant/Organizer/Appraiser(Two get 2/7 while the last gets 1/7. Or something like that.)
Get rid of any items that require leather. Buy one male cat, and the rest are female cats.

Yeah, but for some reason, people don't seem to treat magma as the answer to everything in real life..
Imagine if they did, though. "So, our debt is through the roof! What do we do?!" "That's obvious. *Pulls lever* MAGMA!" *Floods world with magma.*

359
Agreed.
And not being able to respawn sucks, too.
I've tried it a few times.

360
Yes, but that's the real-life..
..And in real-life, no game compares..Well, except in graphics. And lighting. And that annoying disability to mute real-life.
