A way to enhance the game would be to remove all armour, make all swords and hammers massive, make all unarmed attacks able to punch through tank armour but also make everyone resistant to these attacks, and all fights last days with massive amounts of special effects during them, also everyone needs massive spiky hair and to yell constantly.

Also, the game is still in ASCII (or your preferred tileset), so all those special effects? You can't see much of them, even though they're being rendered behind the scenes. They're also really intensive for no reason, and you can't turn them down. Given your framerate, all of those fights will last several real-life days.

Add Potions.
And Potions that are too strong for beasts, let alone men.

Add another elf civ that is exactly the same as the first one.

Add another dwarf civ that's the same as the existing one, except they're unplayable and hate "original" dwarves with a passion.

Your dwarves demand these potions, but cannot have them.

The potions don't exist and no matter what can't be created, but that doesn't stop people from wanting them, they're even willing to kill for just the thought of maybe getting a hold of one.

Add a Nethack-type genocide spell to the game.  Upon being cast on a target, it instantly kills all creatures of that species in the world.
The spell has no cost and units who learn it will cast it defensively.
This may occur in worldgen or offscreen during gameplay.

It is available during a Tantrum Spiral.

During a tantrum spiral, every dwarf that has a tantrum has a 95% chance to use the spell. If the other 5% chance is what comes to fruition, the dwarf teaches the dwarven-genocide spell to as many people as they can instead of breaking things.

Implementation of alternative economy.
Dwarves will invest in "Dwarven coins" that only a single dwarf manages the production. Once the value of the "Dwarven coins" are high enough, dwarves will retrieve actual money to use from them. So all in all, they got money from money.
Some dwarves will question the usefulness of such a system.

Dwarven Communism, Dwarven Neo-Liberalism, and a Dwarven Cold War between a Marxist-Leninist civilization and a Capitalist civilization. Instead of Nuclear Bombs, we have Necromancer Books.

The workshop queues would freeze the game.

I'm curious as to how a tank would evolve. Would it climb out of the primordial ooze wiggling it's track-nubs, feeding on smaller jeeps before crawling onto the shore having evolved proper treds?

Elven Communism, Dwarven Neo-Liberalism, and a Dwarven-Elven Cold War between a Marxist-Leninist civilization and a Capitalist civilization. Instead of Nuclear Bombs, we have Necromancer Books. This war inevitably leads to either an age of the elf or a peace treaty which in turn causes, several decades later, a situation where two groups, one a bunch of casual worshippers of a popular dwarf religion, the other a mix of normal elves and dwarves that value nature, start writing very short and very bad books about topics related to the dwarven-elven cold war in libraries noone else ever visits while also refusing to contribute to society in any way at all.
