[DWARFFRAWD]

As far as I know, Dwarves can't wear two-handed weapons because of a size bugs.
(Dwarp size is 60000, and the minimum size of both-handed weapons is 72500)

But in the Goblin Sieges, the Goblin showed up with two-handed weapons, like a two-handed sword or a halberd.
(despite their size is 60000.)

Aren't invaders subject to size bugs?

[Ziusudra]

Their base size is 60,000, but individuals can be smaller or larger, including larger than 72,500. The bug is that fortress members, not just dwarves, check the base size instead of actual size, but presumably the code that equips invaders is different and doesn't exhibit the bug.

The items are forced into the goblin's hands by the game engine, rather than deliberate choice of the goblin to be able to drop it and pick it back up again due to being in pain or conscious choice to want to wrestle a dwarf, though they don't seem really worse for wear, hauling it about with them two handed.

Then they can't equip a two-handed weapon,
but if they show up equiping a two-handed weapon in the Siege, do they get any penalty?
