The Millitary is the one thing makes me convulse in rage, ever single aspect of it. Just *train* you f**kers! You have weapons assigned, a barracks designated to train, a training regime in alerts, alert is enabled, 3-minimum required ect. It's been 5 years in Idv Combat Drill, do some demonstrations why not? Spar! Something!
And don't get me started on solider equipment! I had to actually save scum for the first time ever trying to figure out how to make my baron, the only hope in saving our fort, equip a damn pickaxe he was legendary with. I already knew he could kick the dragon's scaly arse because he nearly stun locked it with a leather artifact shield he had no skill with (the dragon's legs were bruised by evil weather so he couldn't move as fast) but Joseph just wouldn't pick up the pick. Of course eventually I got him to do it and he mined that bastards skull open in front of the entire military, gotta be good for morale.
Station orders are madness. If you want them to stand where you ordered they will run all the way out of the fort and engage an army of impossible odds he couldn't even see. If you want them to pop out of the defensive area they will stay put and watch the foes wander by. There is no victory.
Planty of armor everywhere but your favorite super-soldier decides to not wear a helmet today. An elite archer pegs him in the head by sheer luck. FUUUU-
Order them to attack a FB. Instead they run all the way out the fort to go frollick amongst nature then run all the way back down for no reason other than putting civillian lives at dire risk.
Archers always make a good show of taking any opening to misinterpret your intent and find a way to get themselves killed. This one is going to bring a crossbow but no bolts even though they are enabled in ammo and he or she has access to loads of them. This one is going to bring a quiver with ammo for once but no crossbow. This one bought bolts and a bow, a goblin short bow to be precise because I only specified "idv choice ranged" without taking into account how f**king pedantic and suicidal they are. This one actually bought everything for once because the stars have aligned but now they are running outside because I forgot to forbid the door to the station area so they rush into the goblin hordes in search of an arrow behind a tree a mile away that they want more than the perfectly safe ammo stocked in the pile just down the stairs.
'A creature that can only be killed by chopping it apart? I had better stab over and over with my sword and punch them a whole bunch!'
A legendary fully armor clad axeman with amazing dodgeing, reflexes and weapon skill fights a single cave croc. Somehow gets stun locked backwards all the way through the caves and into a pool to drown. It's like, what, why, *how*?
I could go on.
