In a recent update DF added the ability to send your military on raids to other civs! (I don't know how recent, I haven't been keeping up)
After testing out this feature I had an idea:
Does anyone want to start a world-conquering succession fort, training up the military with the eventual goal of eliminating all other civs, leaving dwarves the dominant/only race remaining?
As far as I know (if i'm wrong please correct me) no one else has done this yet so I think I want to start my own.
If you're interested, please reply and I will add you to the list:

Grey - unplayed
Green - played
Red - skipped
Year 1: Sanctume
Year 2: Rockeater
Year 3: MCreeper
Year 4: snackfox
Year 5: Imic

Before I start the world, I think it should be decided how many civilizations there should be - how difficult we should make this for ourselves, essentially. I have put this to the poll, which will expire in 4 days. Please do vote!

You will need to wait to the next update because now your dwarfs try to stealth first but yes totally awesome.

This is definitely one of the things I was hoping for when I heard what the new version was going to bring, but unfortunately I won't be able to partake within any reasonable amount of time.

[Spriggans]

I would suggest a small World, with lots of history and max civs.

Or a bigger world with less civs.

But defenitely wait for the new realease which allows raiding.

Dorf me as an Axedwarf w/ a battle axe/buckler or a Siege Operator pls

[Ironfang]

I approve of this greatly. In order to make sure the plan for global conquest works, the fort must be optimized for military strength rather than wealth.

If we want to ensure our plan of world domination works, we will have to plan and organize the specific industries needed to support the soldiers.

So if we can lay out our tail now, we can maximize the ratio for the teeth.

[MottledPetrel]

Optimized industry you say... Dorf me as head fish cleaner! I'll make fish so clean we can blind the enemy with them like mirrors!

[snackfox]

Now knowing that non-stealthy raids will be possible in the next update, I think I’ll make the world and start the game by the time that update comes out, which will hopefully be soon.

[Sanctume]

Add me!  I'll have the peasants turn meadows into battle field, turn fertile soil irrigated with spring water into corrupted lands drenched in blood.

[Rockeater]

It look like it will strat next update so I would join, I want year 3 if it agreed on you.

[Imic]

Rightio, Put me on the turn list!

[Sanctume]

Oooh, put me in Year 1. 

I'm thinking of the starting 7.
1 commander (me).

I would reserve 2 founders for infra structure: 
1 miner/builder. 
1 doctor. 

This can potentially leave 4 founders for year 2, 3, 4, 5 and can be military squad captains.

As for myself, I will not leave the fort but will serve as instructors to recruits. 
My current military testing suggests: Teacher+3, Fighter+2, Discipline+2, and +2 on something else is decent. 

However, Toady's latest note seems like Leadership, Organization, and Tactician skills will be factors for off-site combat, raids, etc.

Poll is over, "Very High" civs has won by a landslide. Well, guess it's gonna be !!FUN!!
