So, my new militia-commander arrived carrying Onulgåkîz, the red spinel flask. I recall it from an earlier fort, but I haven't checked it in legends yet. I had no idea that could happen. So, yeah - just thought I'd share. Seems to me that the theoretical possibility of artifact adamantine axes coming in with the first immigrant wave might be of interest to certain forumites.

That's interesting.  I thought I'd read something about previous fort members being able to immigrate to new forts, but if they carry any or all of their stuff, that would possibly be one way to beef up a fledgling fort.  Get one fort up to a decent stock of high quality (optionally adamantine) weapons and armor.  Draft everyone, give them the good stuff and abandon.

Of course, that depends on how much, if any, of their previously held gear goes with them (might be random?  might not even be related to direct ownership?), and on the probability of getting previous fort dwarves versus other historical figures.

If only artifacts can be carried over like that, you'd probably end up with wooden axes and adamantine hammers, of course, instead of what you wanted.

I think this !Feature! is well known, but watch out: If certain !Fun! happens your dwarf will do some !Sience! on how to bash his comerade's skulls
