Dwarf Companion does give you a lot of ways to cheat, but it also gives you a giant tool box of ways to destroy your fortress that weren't there before. Zombie babies, skeletal war dogs, insane caravan guards that kill everyone they can get their hands on. You could set everyone in the freaking fortress to zombie except for one axe man and have him set to max levels and see if he can survive a dawn of the dead situation where he is the last dwarf left alive.
DWARF OF THE DEAD!
Start an adventurer in a town with a high popluation and set them all to zombies and see how long you can survive with just a maul or some other blunt weapon! See if you can find a mead hall and defend it like they did the mall in the movie
Dwarfy DOOM!
A 70 dwarf reclaim team is sent to see what happened to their precious adamantine mines. In the first few seconds of arrival all but seven of the dwarfs are turned into zombies by insidious violence that is two disgustin to describe.
So those seven dwarfs (named by the community) Must survive with what weapons they have, and try to drive the zombie hordes out of their reclaimed fortress once and for all while at the same time dealing with the demons down in the pits
