Wouldn't an adamantine colossus just be an invincible weakling? Considering their weight they should be nothing more than a nuisance to a skilled golfer hammerdwarf.

Well not only would they be unable to harm the Adamantine colossus but it would be stronger as well

So it could easily just squeeze the Dwarf to putty.

Though Id expect a Adamantine Collosus to have daggers on its hands or something slashing

But adamantine is THE lightest metal in the game according to RAWs

It's also pretty much unbendable and uncompressable, and forms extremely sharp points.  The physical properties of such a metal would be insane, as it is basically unworkable; both an unstoppable force and an immovable object.  I think it is safe to assume that adamantine is magical, for a number of reasons.

This thread reminds me of the time I made a BC civ. I played a BC adventurer, and one of the missions I was given was to kill a lasher in another city. So I go to the city and find my foe, he was on top of the palace, standing near the edge.
I attack him and slowly fight him to the edge. I then set my combat preferences to 'charge.'
I run into him, we fall to the ground, and I survive. His head rolls away and I claim my new bronze statue.

Adamantine's only weakness is that it doesn't bend it just shatters. (Fragile)

But it would take an amazing force to make that happen.

I just pictured an adamantine-clad dwarf jumping onto a nuclear bomb to save his buddies.
