Making a marksdwarf stand by a fortification is incredibly annoying. you'd think they would just stand near it and shoot like a true pro. but no.

The only way to make a marksdwarf stand next to a fortification:
A station command, with a one tile wide walkway, with no possible way to access a path to the outside near it, and be like ten tiles long so the dwarves don't spill out to the nearby area.

Just make a 'man fortification' option, please.

Patrols do not solve this issue, because patrols won't fire their whole quiver, they just hit an enemy, take a potshot, and run away.

making a marksdwarf man a bolt stockpile would be a useful and good workaround.

This is one of the things the devs have stated they want to fix as part of more general problems with archers, like the fact that they also charge enemies to club them with crossbows too readily, and how they don't pick up ammo correctly most of the time.

We haven't heard much more than that though.
