Hunting and war dogs
« on: November 29, 2007, 09:01:00 pm »

What is the difference? I only train war dogs, and chain them and assign them to soldiers and hunters. Are hunting dogs better at hunting stuff, or what?

hunting dogs tend to run ahead of their masters and get killed.  War dogs tend to be more defensive.  Hunting don't really do much at all in the way of hunting.  I usually train only war dogs.

oh and this belongs in gameplay questions.

Hunting dogs are fast, war dogs are strong.
Second on the wrong forum.

That being said, I should probably think of something witty to put here.

Wait, what is the Dwarf mode forum? I thought it was meant for fortress mode talk.


Also, thanks for answering my question.
