0010185: Crash when dwarves are fighting invaders (no weapon traps used!)
I ordered my marksdwarves to station behind the fortifications, then lowered the bridge so that the goblins start pouring in. They start shooting them, but after about 2-3 die or get captured, the game crashes mid-fight. I managed to reproduce it everytime I loaded the save, regardless of how I positioned or used the militia. I only use the Phoebus pack, nothing else.

1. pull the upper lever (it's in the siege burrow)
2. order dwarves to kill invaders
3. crash occurs sooner or later
There's all kinds of stuff going on, like a forgotten beast pathing around in the caverns and my civilization being attacked by elves, but they are unlikely to be the cause, as the crash only happens when I attack the invaders.

I reproduced the crash in the attached save; it may be wear-related from using wooden bolts against armored opponents (similar to 0010028 and 0010053). I was able to avoid the crash by sending out a melee squad instead.

Confirmed fixed in v0.44.02, presumably by the fix for 0009888.
