How long does it take...
« on: September 20, 2011, 05:35:36 pm »

...a group of five no skill dwarves to kill a partially incapacitated troll with training weapons?

And is this a decent method of training weapon skills?

Too vague for me to answer, but I can tell you that a dwarf equipped with a shield and a training sword will almost never use the training sword, preferring to do hand to hand combat and shield bashing.

Not as long as you think.  Once a creature loses consciousness, all shots are headshots, and skulls are made of posterboard.

Instead, use adamantine hammers.
