Sounds like a plan, dapper Dan!

That's potentially interesting, but even more fun (and saving gobbos to train your militia) is feeding the cyclops migrants.

How strong are cyclopses? I'm asking because I only had giants, and the one I caged, set up outside and RELEASE THE KRAKEN'd on a goblin ambush got omgwtfpwn-ed by a single pikegoblin, even as the giant managed to land the first hit winding the greenskin.

Yup, an armed and armored goblin is a murdermachine, and cyclopses are not very tough.
I Learned that early on, when I got cocky after dispatching a few ogres and squeletal cyclopses on my first fortress. My first goblin ambush was quite a shock...
