Stegasourus Wrestler (Civ Forge mod)
« on: September 12, 2008, 09:34:02 pm »

I trained some dwarfes in wrestling and crossbows and let them loose hunting.  And one of them gets killed.  So I see whats up and I've been visited by some stegasauruses.  So I settle in to watch what happens.  Some more hunters come on the scene.  Bolts fly and one stegasourus goes down.  Then they decide to wrestle one for a while.  At first its 3 on 1.  But two dwarves get bored (or badly wounded) and leave.  And I have one adept wrestler vers one stegasourus.  And the wrestling bout goes on.  And on.   And on.  Both combatants are constantly over exerting, going in and out of consciousness.  The dwarf gets a yellow head.  The stegasourous gets a grey wound every so often, but recovers quickly.  The dwarf gains a level in wrestling skill. 

And the fight goes on.  And on.  And on.

Eventually the dwarf gets thirsty.

And the bout goes on.  And on.  And on.

Then the dwarf gets hungry.

Ok, better do something about this.  So I see that of my hunters only one other is not wounded.  I draft him back in the military, see that he's got 30 steel bolts I just bought from trading, and 'marksdwarf' skill level.  I maneuver him to help.  Thirty bolts let fly and the stegasourus is unconscious, overexerted, but still unscratched.  And its back to two on one wrestling.

So enough is enough.  I order 'all dwarves indoor'.  And the stegasourus limps the 4 squares required to depart my map.  And the initial dwarf goes to bed.

Yep, dinos. Least your dwarves got tons of wrestling skill from it. I'm surprised it didn't just impale them with it's thagomizer.

Actually, i think the dinosaurs don't have attack tags in their raws. That would be it if they were taken from the prehistoria mod on the wiki.
