Competent UNKNOWN
« on: May 15, 2012, 06:20:36 pm »

Migrant just arrived showing this skill on dwarf therapist.
Also, either I'm tired, or some names aren't matching up regarding those migrants. I'm suspecting a vamp.

How about you check the guy himself to see which one it is?

It's probably tracker or military tactics.

It is tactics I think!
Got leadership as well.
Also, she's had 10 children and has been a member of 18 past groups. Bit higher than average I think. She bears watching.

If Therapist still doesn't recognize those skills, then you need to complain really loudly in the forum thread so they can get it fixed, since I first saw that back in version 0.31...

It's amazing how dwarves can make a stack of bones completely waterproof and magmaproof.
It's amazing how they can make an entire floodgate out of the bones of 2 cats.

Why would this dwarf be named differently in therapist than in-game?

It would be brutally difficult and probably won't work. In other words, it's absolutely dwarven!

A question section would, by it's very nature, contain spoilers.
Besides, I already thought so :P
Shame to see a combat trained dwarf go though...

You just made a funny thought pop into my head.

Okay, so you're at the clinic, waiting in the office after your check-up. After some time, the doctor comes back and asks... "Do you really want to know?"

Might be a knife user. They'll just be called dwarves in the military screen if you assign them daggers. But that's probably not right.

I don't think that there's any way for dwarves to get Knife User in worldgen. I'm not even positive that goblin/kobold thieves get this skill, and dwarves who are part of a goblin civ never become snatchers (as far as I can tell.)

I get it very rarely. And usually goblin snatchers are skilled knife fighters. Kobolds... No idea.
