Making a siege against my fortress with animals
« on: February 24, 2021, 08:33:34 pm »

So I want to challenge myself a bit, and I think that having my Fort be attacked by a coordinated group of the same animal would be interesting. However while I could use DFHACK to make them berserk I feel that would make them attack their allies. Is it possible to force them to not attack each other (I don’t want to use the CRAZED tag. I want only the ones I want to attack my fort to attack it. Unless the gods send some animals to attack me anyways)

The scouts have been fighting a giant capuchin for the past month now. They still haven't killed it.

The Sentries are still fighting the capuchin. For two monthes they have done nothing but punch this monkey.

At the creature/caste level, no, not without breaking combat behavior (ie benign). But you could always slap together a quick entity. Then you can give them low siege requirements and certain ethics/values that conflicts with dwarves.
