Do pastured grazers need water?
« on: January 21, 2014, 12:16:18 am »

This is the first time I've ever really noticed my pasture lacking a murky pool in it somewhere, do I need to include one? It's not mentioned on the wiki.

Nope. Only your citizens need to drink.

Grazers need to eat grass only. Keep in mind how much they eat, as the size of the creature dictates how much it eats (also what the x is in [GRAZER:x]).

Citizens do need to drink, but dwarves are drunkards and they love their booze. Dwarves will only drink water when there is no booze.

You do not understand the ways of Toady One. He is not a business, he's just a guy trying to make a fun game. He's invited people to come along and experience the journey with him (and help him test it out as he goes along). At the end of the day, I don't think his main goal is to sell Dwarf Fortress, its just to create the best game possible.
