hammerer
« on: May 25, 2012, 02:18:47 pm »
Hello,
I have a hammerer. I found the major to be a vampire and there was 4 witnesses and convicted the felon and he is in the prison and he is getting away with this by only spending 180 days in prison. This was his 5th victim, but nobody saw those first 4. Why my hammerer does not execute this guy? How can I make executioner work his magic? I want this guy to be dead by the Justice.
Please advise. Many thanks
Steve

not sure about the justice system, but you could execute him by arranging an unpleasent accident

Sorry, not going to happen. A hammerer is not an executioner. He's a punisher, a bone breaker, and only an accidental executioner. If you want your vamp dead, kill it yourself with a cave in, magma, or atom smashing.

Listen to the ninjas. They are, like, wise and shit.

I used to have a mighty bastard of a sheriff. Didn't ever bother with anything like cages/etc. When I convicted a vampire he'd go up and punch the perp in the head, jamming the skull through the brain. That's justice for ya.

Ah, hammerers. I've had a lot of pain trying to figure out how they work. :p

First off, I've noticed that criminals seem to get hammering sentences more, for more crimes. So I'd have pinned all those crimes on him at once, and hoped for a lot of hammerstrikes. That may or may not actually kill a vampire, but even if it doesn't, it might give him an infection that eventually sees him off, or end up with him basically permanently in the hospital.

Second, make sure you have chains/ropes built and marked for justice. A hammerer won't do his thing in a jail cell, the prisoner has to be attached to a justice chain/rope instead. (That still counts as jail time btw.)

Third, make sure you have a free hammer. The heavier the better, if you're going for lethality. Silver hammers are nice for it. Your hammerer will go pick it up when it's time to exec... I mean, punish the guilty, and then (I believe) drop it off again when he's done.
