Use ropes instead of cages. Justice be a harsh mistress to a starving dwarf in a cage.

Pick a CoG with the lowest strength you can find. We're talking unquestionably weak to very weak here. Give the CoG a wooden xbow and no ammo to try and slightly minimize the damage done. Cotton Candy war hammer preferred.

Actually, give them ammo, because there is zero chance that the CoG will use the Crossbow as a ranged weapon in administration of great justice.

Also, the only person who "executes" a dwarf is the Hammerer, and this is "unintentional" as Dwarves aren't fond of the Death Penalty. That being said, dwarves seem to have not yet figured out that Dwarf skull + hammer + high velocity = dwarf skull in dwarf brain.

The Captain of the Guard and lawdwarfs merely administer beatings to wayward dwarves. These beatings are done either with their hands, or whatever weapon they have equipped. Don't think they use the edge of edged weapons (not sure of this) but they use the crossbow as a club regardless of whether they have ammo or not. In fact, its good to make your lawdwarfs your Marksdwarf squad because being equipped with lightweight wooden crossbows (and good metal bolts) will not decrease their ability to mine goblinite.

Oh, also, not sure if working as intended or a hardcoded DF bug, but when I was building my Great Magma Forge, I used one obsidian pipe section and three wooden pipe sections... Which all seemed fine and the Magma Forge is functioning quite happily off of its wood encased magma supply lines.

Also peculiar, is that after the explosion about 12 dwarfs congregated in the area around the priest, and would not move even after getting hungry, thirsty, and tired. I used dfhack and turned the stone floors into stone floors and that seemed to wake them up from their stupor...

Fantastic work on the mod (even if I despise warlocks with a passionate undying fury, despite it being absolutely hilarious watching a necromancer come along in a siege and inadvertently end the siege by raising a few misplaced skeletons o' doom).

I do have a question though: Where and how does one acquire Golem Hearts? I bought a Cobalt Golem Heart from a Drow caravan, in a vain attempt to build a magma Golem forge, but alas, I still cannot build the Golem Forge...

It'd be nice to have golems too, what with the new zombie menace I found myself with.
