Dwarfs auto-equip quivers right? If not, how do I get them to do it?

If they have a crossbow (or have the hunting labor enabled), they'll automatically equip quivers.

Yeah, quivers, backpacks, flasks.

If they don't equip something, you can usually force them by giving them station orders and canceling them.

Blue Dwarf has been happy lately. He did some !!science!! recently. He admired a fine forum post lately. He was enraged by a forum troll recently. He was upset by the delayed release of the new version of Dwarf Fortress lately. He took joy in planning a noble's death recently.

If its military, they also need ammo assigned to them.

You seem to be under the impression that we're playing some game other than dwarf fortress. It doesn't matter how powerful you make a creature, we will find a way to destroy it. God is dead, and Urist killed him.
