I don't like boogeymen as a feature, it feels slapped on and inconsistent.

I agree; I like the intent, to make the night dangerous and spooky (and fun,) but it seems kind of contrived. It's probably just a placeholder until something more grounded in the setting is fleshed out.

That sounds pretty cool. I read about the evil weather in fortress mode; it appears on occasion only in evil biomes. I haven't been to one yet since genning for this version, but now I think I'll browse Legends and find one to visit.

Do any werebeast forms have wings, and if so, can you actually fly with them? I mean in vanilla DF.

Gust Bedjuggler. I never met him, but he appears to be a popular subject of sculpture. Bone sculpture, if you know what I mean.

I'd added to the wiki that triggering traps in Tombs will wake the mummy, even if you dodge, he'll home right in on you. I wasn't sure this was the case for catacombs. I went exploring under the temple of a strange city and failed to dodge a trap. I managed to dodge a second trap and fell unconscious on the tile right next to it. When I came to, a mummy was telling me "You feel horrible" -- imagine so, I'm passed out on a dusty floor, bleeding from chipped bones in both heels, the only thing that could be worse is for a decrepit smartass to tear me limb from limb. And so he did.

EDIT: I looked at the place again and saw the trapped room, aptly named 'The Crazy Room', was right next to his coffin. When I triggered traps in the catacombs under the adjoining Keep, that didn't wake him. So I guess it's all about the range; since most tomb traps are in a close range around the coffin, they're very likely to disturb a mummy, but unlikely to disturb the mummy in the next tomb.

In adventurer mode, I managed somehow to consolidate handfuls of scattered coins into a single stack. How do that I that again?

I would guess dwarves have the biological predispositors toward gaining mass at a higher ratio to strength, but not necessarily 1:1, only modern weight training does that. Most physical exercise a dwarf or adventurer would do would build strength faster than bulk.
