Wagons don't need road anymore. Though, it might make 'em faster, because they don't need to avoid the trees etc.

You can make a macro of it. I don't remember the adress of that thread about making them, though...

Aquifers are blocked by hard rock. If you manage to find it, just dig a couple of tiles in it and then straight down. If you are planning to block an area of aquifer in real life, you need to block it from all around also bottom. don't know if it works in DF also...

I hope there are no ways to dig under watertable, because it is difficult even with modern technology. The only way is to insulate the corridor (like covering all the wall with cement) and/or pumping constantly...

Trapping is usually used to catch vermin, not very good food. If you want to catch game, like deer, then you must build cagetraps. To do that you need a mechanic and his shop to make mechanisms and carpenter/metalsmith and their shops to make cages (I'd prefer carpenter). Then you need to make animals go to your loaded cage traps somehow. Then they can be either tamed and butchered (easier, in my opinion) or just butchered.

Well, you could make your roof not to cover all of the floor:

Sideways:

X is above ground,
. is air, and
u is underground.

4. On loam, sand, mud etc. and their combinations (loamy sand etc.).

Darn. Well, thanks anyway. I need to remember that when I create next world and tweak raws a bit to make them butcherable...
