Fortress Guards?
« on: May 02, 2010, 12:52:21 pm »
This may sound silly, but I can't find the dwarf fortress menu for assigning/finding out how many fortress guards I need.  Was the fortress guard removed from this version of DF?  If so, what does my captain of the guard do?


Oh, and was there any changes to the siege weaponry?  I never used them before since they never looked that useful, but if they've changed I'll go check it out.

The captain of the guard seems to act like an assigned noble to me, that can fight.  He's never placed any real demands, and while it used to be the fortress guard would wander the halls of the fortress, looking for menacing deliquents, (or being menacing to deliquents), now I just use them as any other squad.

The leader is a light blue color for me, so it's easy to pick him out sleeping in his bed or boozing when I told the group to kill something.
