I just cried laughing.

One word: Pies.

Not a perfect adaption of the in-game messages, but...

You hit the goblin in the head with your *Blueberry Pie*!
It is smashed into the body, an unrecognizable mess!

Or better. Ranged weapons: Pie launchers.

Edit: Could you force an annoyance race to use these? All of the sudden goblins pour into your fortress and begin firing mostly harmless pies at your workers. Awesome.

Now THIS is useful, for many more things than this!
I love you Toady!

I suppose somebody have put this on the wiki yet?

And I don't understand why a comedian weapon would be so special, come up whit something that uses the lying skill (Pinocchio nose?). or soap making...

Wait, WRESTLING isn't on that list. That puts my ice gloves on hold for now.

I'm assuming that UNARMED is WRESTLING.

[penguinofhonor]

Hm. Someone above said that they were different.

Wrestling is, per definition, unarmed fighting. The fact that wrestlers occasionally use chairs as weapons does not negate that statement. Thus, there's no WRESTLING skill, there's UNARMED. You can get points in unarmed fighting by taking points in wrestling - it's just nomenclature, different names for one thing.

And yes, I'd love to see dwarves start trying to pick up equipment for the tasks they do that matches the skill they use. I'd imagine they'd get a certain bonus from using the item too.

By the way, you can add any weapons with any skills you like, you can then take those skills at startup (as an adventurer), but the weapons won't spawn, and you'll have to search around for them. Maybe that could be an easy fix?
