Masterwork, maybe? Training spears in Masterwork are deadly.

No, look at the name. It's Well-crafted, far from Masterwork.

Quote from: Phantom
Unknown to most but the insane and the mystics, Tarran is actually Earth itself, as Earth is sentient like that planet in Avatar. Originally Earth used names such as Terra on the internet, but to protect it's identity it changed letters, now becoming the Tarran you know today.
Quote from: Ze Spy
Tarran has the "Tarran Bug", a bug which causes the affected character to repeatedly hit teammates while dual-wielding instead of whatever the hell he is shooting at.

Nah. All of the spears are ++ or common. And all upright spears trap have only 1 training spear.
I have been ninja'd.
Maybe toady changed something on how traps work in this release.

Without armor danger rooms become execution chambers.

True dwarves use serrated disks in their danger rooms. Sure, they can be made of the bluntest material you can find, but the fact remains that spears are for... elves.

Is the impaling message just a consequence of dying by spike, or did the dwarf get knocked unconscious and then fall and impale himself?  Or in other words, to creatures have to fall at least a z level to impale themselves, or is just falling over good enough?  Would a web trap over a row of deployed spikes be extra effective?

I believe he is referring to the mod pack of that name, in which Danger Rooms have been made... inadvisable.

Not really to all of that; Creatures must fall from a z-level above (but im not sure of how many) to be auto-impaled by a spear. Being stabbed in the brain, though, is what killed these dwarves. They became impaled after death because that's what upright spear/spike traps do; they impale anything that dies on them.

I have no idea where anything is. I have no idea what anything does. This is not merely a madhouse designed by a madman, but a madhouse designed by many madmen, each with an intense hatred for the previous madman's unique flavour of madness.

Actually, modding in Styrofoam to make nerf training weapons sounds supreme.
