Martial Trance
« on: August 28, 2006, 03:03:00 am »

I hate to post a second topic so soon after the first, but I've just had something pretty cool happen that has returned no search results whatsoever...

Being harassed by rhesus marquees, I drafted my Carpenter into an Axedwarf and told him to fight them off. After slaughtering one and engaging a second, he entered a "Martial Trance" (similar to possessed).

The monkeys didn't stand a chance.

Macaques.

A marquee is a big tent, or commercial display, or some such thing.

Marital trances can make dwarves fight much better.  They occasionally happen when a dwarf is targetted by 3 or more enemies.

Isn't a marital trance what a dwarf goes into after hearing their spouse drone on at them for an hour?  ;)

I do know what a marquee is. That's most likely the reason for misreading the monkey's names. ;/.
