Would this work with giant cave spiders?

[Neruz]

I expect it would, and if so it would make them instantly fatal.

Du eet.

Would this work with giant cave spiders?

First thing I thought of when I saw this. Mine are modded to be fliers (I wish there was a [CLIMBER] tag, as things get a bit silly when they're on the surface), and the flight pathing means that they aren't the single-minded killing machines I want them to be.

Imagine giving this tag to children dwarves. Would they then choose an owner, or because they are a dwarf and dont have the [PET] tag would they just kill the vermin? I kinda like the Idea of having dwarf children running around and killing the Vermin. Maybe I could make the children eat them too...

Interesting thought giving dwarves [verminhunter]...I foresee problems when the game is telling them to kill things they detest(you want me to go near...THAT!?)

Try it out and let us know what happens!

I once gave a civ VERMINHUNTER.  IIRC they worked fine (did normal fortress duties, hunted vermin, didn't adopt one another) except for caravans.  I recall the caravan refusing to leave the depot.  Once they arrived, they never left.

But I've slept since then.  Several hundred times.  So my memory may be off.

The problem is with children being not a type of creature but an age... So you have to add it to all dwarves, which can be broken.

I use falcons. They are so much cooler than cats, plus they can go after harder-to-catch vermin like bats and songbirds.

So after giving my Dwarves the [VERMINHUNTER] tag not only do they kill the vermin, but they seem to leave other tasks alone. Dont really do this unless you have a really bad infestation and want to get rid of it fast.

what i would love to see is a vermin hunter job you could give to your dwarves.
