This is Watergate. You may notice the two large containers of water and their respective floodgates. What can they be for? How can an army of two marksdwarves possibly fight off the army of goblins?
So far this has been tested once. The larger tank was half-full while the second completely full when a seige happened the previous year. I had doors on the outer aquifer pumps, and the trolls took up residence in one. At the same time, a hydra came and took up residence in the other. Fortunately they left the levers alone. I later added backup levers in the fort and walled off the pumps completely. I discovered that the river can't fill these up faster than the water evaporates, so it was necessary to draw water from the aquifers.
I'll post a movie later when the goblins get close enough.

Oh, and coincidentally one dwarf has the name of Mosus.
