Alternatively, just don't transfer prisioners anywhere near merchant escorts or make the traders and escorts go on a certain path. I'm not seeing any bug here.

See my original report: http://www.bay12forums.com/smf/index.php?topic=40669.0 [^]

The workaround is easy enough as was pointed out. I think it is a bug because the hostiles are in your custody. By most ethics/conventions (Geneva?) you shouldn't allow others to attack them without them being able to fight back. Do you see this as a bug, Quietust? By the way, do you know if the "cage full of animals" taken to the depot (then subsequently released) has been reported? EDIT:What about transferring goblin thieves between cages? Any other goblin (pike/sword, etc) is fine, but not thieves. They aways escape. Does it help if you have a DM?

Especially considering that captives (even the local leaders) submit to your dwarves dragging them around, until the dwarves let go for some damn reason, disarming them helps of course. As for the taking a cage full of animals (or anything in a cage) to the depot and having the critter be released bug, that one was reported, so its around here somewhere. Edit: Forgot I had the bug report you mentioned monitored myself: http://www.bay12games.com/dwarves/mantisbt/view.php?id=480 [^]
