Study into raiding as military training
« on: March 23, 2018, 02:40:32 pm »

This will be an experiment into on-site training vs raiding as a way of training dwarves. 
Two dquads have been randomly set up from low-skill dwarves with no military training. 
Equipment is identical. 
Both squads are set to active/training and given the same barracks. 
One will be sent to kill any animals on the map. The other will be sent on raids.

Also, if you ever figure out why poets/bards/dancers just randomly start butchering people/getting butchered, please don't fix it, I love never knowing when a dance party will turn into a slaughter.

Detailed Report:
Spoiler (click to show/hide)

-Clandestine raids seem to add 1 level of ambusher.

-Combat seems to add a base of 1 level of marksdwarf. Each kill adds another level.

Aaaaaaand crashed. Been a while since last save, too.
