Bolts and bowyer
« on: January 04, 2008, 07:04:00 pm »

Shouldn't the bowyer make bolts, bot craftsdwarves?

It seems that the bowyer skill is almost completely useless.

Making him make bolts as well as crossbows would actually give the bowyer shop a use.
It seems to me that one bowyer shop can usually make enough crossbows for a very large fort, then never be used again.

I still think it would be nice to give the bowyer shop a use other than skill grinding.
