This is my first topic so...  Would it be cool that  you're digging you suddenly strike an acid spring\pool or tar pool\spring, and then your dwarves can gather things like sulfuric acid or buckets to barrels of tar. It could be used to reintroduce alchemy workshops. It wouldn't make sense if dwarves could make asphalt, but they should be able to make face melting boiling tar , or make traps that utilize sulfuric acid or boiling tar. Tar could be used as method to deter invaiders form trying to climb up your walls. Imagine if you find a tar\acid sea while digging underground.

My spelling or vocabulary probably sucks, and I'm probably suggesting this wrong or I'm just doing it wrong in general .

Asphalt bound roads is actually very old, ancient middle east using pools of bitumen (another name for asphalt).

Bituminous coal is is a soft coal that contains bitumen (asphalt).

Having underground pockets of liquid would be interesting, but should probably wait until air quality and lighting is planned. Dangerous gasses emanate from those liquid pockets, and that's just a recipe for Fun.

I like the acid spring and tar pool ideas.

It would also be cool to have rivers of blood in the HFS.

Most likely need to wait until containmants and flows are combined. I support the rivers of blood in HFS though.
