Hi all,

I've got 2 questions.

1) Can marksdwarves use bucklers or shields?

2) Is there any particular way to train social skills?

Thanks,

mj

1) Yes.

2) By talking. More specifically, letting two dwarves get in close proximity to each other. Making a tiny meeting zone and letting your dwarves idle will train their social skills quickly.

1. Not sure.

2. 1x1 meeting area and no other places in the fortress that dwarves will hang around (I set up a 1x1 meeting zone in a dirt room in a fortress with all dwarves having Grand bedrooms. They did on the whole cluster around the meeting area, but there were always a couple of stragglers chilling in their quarters).

re 1) I believe only bucklers.  But I know that the weapons/shield system is buggy, and so whether that's a hard rule or only the way "it's supposed to work" is unclear.

Thanks, everyone!
