Summary0004397: disembodied goblins crashing my fort
DescriptionI'm at this point in one of my nicer forts where I've made a save before a set of goblin ambushes, and each time it comes the game crashes and I revert back to this save. After the third crash, I noticed that the leaders of each squad of goblins (ie the lone crossbowman in the pack of swordsmen) were crawling on the ground and had the 'winded' icon blinking on them.

When I go to the descriptions of these particular goblins, it says the usual 'a medium humanoid driven to cruelty by its evil nature' a description of its strength (incredibly muscular, etc) followed by "His[or Her] upper body is gone". When I check their wounds, everything shows up as missing. Despite this, they are able to move about the map with their healthy squadmates. Whenever one of these leaders is attacked, the game immediately crashes. It's a different group of goblins each time, so it must be something with my particular set of raws because this only happens on one save file.
Steps To Reproducehttp://dffd.wimbli.com/file.php?id=4088 [^] upload and continue the saved fort. Ambushes should occur as the Caravan is leaving.
Additional InformationPlease let me know how to fix this. Also, unrelated, but there is no Adamantine on this map even though it's a 3x3, which I thought meant for sure that there'd be at least one column of it. if there is, it must be very well hidden.
