Right, I'm going to stay away from adventure for a while! Perhaps it's just me being useless but I can't go more than 10 minutes without dying and death ALWAYS involves this as the last messages:

- Skull smashed into brain
- Brain torn

Honestly, is everything setting out to tear my brain?

I realised that I hadn't fully read the OP, and thus did so.

Buy a helmet and/or get a shield and the dodge skill.

Ah, much better...A bogeyman tore my pancreas...

Still alive, I guess that's a bonus.

I threw at an axeman chieftain that I was supposed to kill and it broke his chest or something and he fell down.
And them my army beat him unconscious.

how do i open the cage traps that were sprung. a cave in occurred and a stupid dwarf fell into one and there's a goblin in another that i want to kill. i assigned a squad to attack the caged goblin but i don't think it is working.

Assign it to a lever with a mechanic.

You kick The Lasher in the head with your left foot, bruising the muscle, jamming the skull through the brain and tearing the brain!
The Lasher has been knocked unconscious!
The Lasher has been struck down.

Oh wow I threw a silver arrow and it chipped someones right true rib and tore the left lung, tearing a tendon in the right true rib.

Or build a cage and unassign the animal/creature, it is incredibly dangerous with hostiles but it is preferred for friendly creatures.

My..my army!
They've betrayed me!
I only escaped by lighting fires and throwing rocks and arrows, I also took a swim to escape being attacked by 2.

Haha, you managed to start a loyalty cascade? I haven't done that yet.

I brought bogeymen into a human fortress before, it was funny watching the soldiers get owned by them until some woke up finally and tore into them.
