Legendary miners are bound to make an unholy mess of an enemy army.

And pitchblende hammers in weak, unskilled hands shatter bones on the first swing. WHat's your point?

It just makes miners twice as dwarfy.

All I use anymore is miners, keeping around 2-3x the picks as I have miners (usually 60+ miners): One for their civilian role, one for their military role (because of the hidden mining civilian uniform).  Set them to rotate 1 month civilian, 1 month training, 1 month "stationed" (staggering different groups, so I always have ~20 as civilians).  "Stationed" referring to danger room, usually.  Strike the ANYTHING.
