STANCE is used to designate that the creature stands on that body part, yes. And wear boots. The wiki has all sorts of info on the various tokens.

Toady: We had mentioned a while back about the bug where the number of smelter reactions is capped. Has this been fixed, and if not are you planning on fixing it for the next release?

I found a lot of things wrong with the groundhog bite today. First, a groundhog ripped a lion in half and bit off a dwarf's arms... and it was using every part of its head (eyes, nose, etc.), not just its teeth, for the biting. After I fixed that up, it was still using its teeth like little needles and piercing brains and so on. I eventually got that sorted out.

Don't do TOO much debugging, now

LOL! on that. I wonder what caused that to happen.

It also gives another meaning to 'if looks could kill'. As for the eyes, they should have been shooting lasers.

Rodents (which groundhogs are) do have sharp incisor teeth, so they could actually make a nasy wound or bite to the bone. At most, it would only be able to bloody the lions nose or give a nasty paw wound

@DeathofRats: He already fixed it, so it's too late now.

I still would like to see a sampling of the full combat text.

I know, but I can still dream, can't I?  ;D

Now I want to make an army of war groundhogs with biting eyes and take over the world.

I believe you can do that in the current version. That is, making the eyes attack with a bite attack.

Yea, but that's the old raws. In the new raws preview (which was last december), there are many changes. Although it is an 'old' example of the new raws, there won't be too many changes. There is enough difference between the ones now and what will be in the new release that any changes from the old example are moot as we still have to figure them out.

Plus the modding section of the wiki with the raws info will likely need a complete wipe and redo.

I'm back to combat text, which still involves some retooling of things as the text illuminates further problems, but I'm closer to being done with the combat revision, anyway. I found a lot of things wrong with the groundhog bite today. First, a groundhog ripped a lion in half and bit off a dwarf's arms... and it was using every part of its head (eyes, nose, etc.), not just its teeth, for the biting. After I fixed that up, it was still using its teeth like little needles and piercing brains and so on. I eventually got that sorted out.
... I'm scared...
But I would agree using eyes and nose is a bug.  But sharp teeth like needle and such do make some sense (they're sharp, like arrow).

I had a dragon fight some lions, and after a little bit of dragonfire and close combat, I ended up with a dragon covered with the gramatically-in-progress "lion melted fat spatter".
Hm... dragon covered in gooey lion fat... sounds like a nice dish.

One of the toads decided to go for a swim in the moat - presumably because he could path through the moat to my dwarves. He is not charging in, just loitering in the moat.

The toad is having a nice relaxing swim.
The goblin mounted on his back, however, is drowning.
