Two Legendary Bowgunners just migrated to my Fort.

The uselessness of this is somewhat offset by the fact a Legendary Marksdwarf arrived with them, but it still feels like I am being trolled.

They should have good Archer skill to back that up, so enlist them as marksdwarves.

I was talking about importing alimunim.
And we were hypothesising about the sexual relations between elves and trees.

Monster Hunter? In my Dwarf Fortress?

It's more likely than you think.

...

Now give them some sleep ammo and set them loose on the next megabeast you see.

Give them axes. Tell them to stop being pansies.

Oh, *Blowgunners

Also, a Legendary Bowdwarf arrived now.

All four of them have High Master Dodger and High Master Armor User as their only other combat skills. Something tells me this isn't entirely intended.

Then give them as much armor as they can wear and make them infantry.

Acquire blowguns and ammunition. Put your legendary blowgunners in their own squad. Have them fire on goblin invaders from your main entrance. Send a couple of squads of axedwarves out through a side door to creep up on the goblins while they're busy pissing themselves laughing.

I think Toady's confusing interface better simulates the experience of a bunch of disorganised drunken dwarves running a fort.
