Yes, they are strong weapons, but biting a goblin in the head muscle (why do heads have that much muscle and fat?) and shaking it about is still daft.

Also, how big is a dwarf's mouth to fit around a goblin's head or a bronze colossus' leg?

[Urist Tilaturist]

Absolutely. We have already discussed how combat needs a big rebalance, especially unarmed combat (literally unarmed if dwarves are biting enemies all the time).

Not as bad as grabbing something by the forth toe, right foot with your upper arm and shaking it.

Or targeting their back teeth.

Or beating people to death with a sock.

Or numerous other things the combat system allows.

Which are all daft, and should be committed to the magma in time. We have a discussion about it here:

Clearly you are not familiar with dwarven nails and scratching, a.k.a. every dwarf is Wolverine.

Also I have no issues with the combat system. It's hilarious. (Well, maybe weaponed dwarves should use natural weapons less often)

I actually regret the days when you could kill dragons with thrown worms or your own thrown blood.

I think the combat system is pathetically stupid now, the more I play with it (especially fighters repeatedly passing out from pain or exhaustion, fighting some more, and repeating without just thinking to withdraw and run away first), but different opinions are allowed.
