How do I designate a coffin to be used by a specific noble (mayor)? I want to bury him in a golden coffin after he dies.Place the coffin in an extra room and design a tomb to your dwarf (q over the coffin). When the dwarf dies he will retain all of his thingies, so it is a good idea to place a coffin and coffer in that tomb too.
Coffer? He has a room on a different z-level with everything he needs including golden doors and furniture.
Not anymore when he is dead. ^^
What is a good item (preferably renewable) to trade? I'm thinking glass crafts, but perhaps there is something of glass that is more valuable.
Glass Serrated Discs, presumably clear is more valuable than green, but you probably want to get a decent size tree-farm going for that.

Alright, here's some things that've been bugging me since 40d:"At war" I think.
What does that little red dashed line next to the goblins mean on the world map screen?
As far as I know, a flying unit won't move into a tile with a fortification, either from above, or from the side like any other unit. Falling creatures will land in the same tile, and if they survive, will move to any valid tile next to them.
