[Karakzon]

Her name: Id Iscanilob
role: sole millatery personal of counsiledmines.

well: im on a glacier half the map and a mountain the other half. permanently freezed over all year.
the mountain is mirthfull, the glacier is terrifying.

so far she has a kill count of 15, involving 2 packs of ice wolfs, 1 troglodite group, and every blizzard man she comes across as i build the outer walls and try to wall myself in.

she dual weilds picks due to a weird bug in the millatery command were shes equiped with a pick -i specified one-, but also a miner, so she picks that up as well. what do you guys think? she already has 15 kills split between the two picks and as she fights shes getting better skills in mining.

[Artzbacher]

That sounds great. Do you think she hits enemies "faster" because of the dual wielding?

[Jacob/Lee]

I would assume not, because she uses 1 "turn" attacking an opponent with either weapon anyway. The only practical use I see from dual-wielding weapons is if one of your hands gets cut off/destroyed you still have another weapon to use.

[Karakzon]

right now shes killing off a nacked mole dog invasion. shame i couldnt cage em xP its too early in the fort to be messing with cages.
ill try get a screenshot of the place etc up soon but not right now.

oh and another thing: shes doing all this with the first toe on each foot is brocken, and her description says she has massive scars due to fighting the ice wolfs i should imagine 0.o

[Korbac]

Also, she may get more opportunites in combat as the extra pick provides an extra stab / bash.

[Angry Bob]

I know that in adventurer mode, wielding like eight weapons at once gives you many opportunity attacks. It probably works the same way in fortress mode though there's no way I know of to make a dwarf wield more than one weapon.

[Karakzon]

tell them to pick up a specific weapon. then do it again. walla. 2 weapons.

im assigned both her picks to her now. with any luck, since she has 23 kills, shell name em. x) 2 very deadly copper picks their.
wish i could make some art for her. dual weilding picks seems an interesting image.
