Armor
« on: March 26, 2010, 09:22:04 pm »

In my failing attempts to get my champion ax dwarf to use my artifact chain mail and shield i've wound up with him wearing chain mail and platemail at the same time. Is that normal?

Wearing chain and plate mail at the same time is both beneficial and intended, you know. Most players do it.

That's the great thing about this forum. We can derail any discussion into any other topic.
It's not an embark so much as seven dwarves having a simultaneous strange mood and going off to build an artifact fortress that menaces with spikes of awesome and hanging rings of death.

Yeah, it is actually common to wear a chain tunic beneath plate armors.  Likewise, it is common to wear leather tunic beneath chain.

Well, I don't tend to do it myself, but I like trying to get my dwarfs to do it.

Can I see you on a webcam shot with your chaim and plate mail on please ;)

Is there any way to remove mud outdoors?
Yea, use dirt roads to clear off the mud.
