What does Pinching do?

Self explanatory really. I can't figure out what pinching a persons bodyparts while wrestling them does.

Pinching causes more pain.  The desirable outcome with pinching would be to pinch a creature until it gives into pain.

I just ran a test and caused a wolf with no other wounds to pass out from pinching his nose seven times.

Pinching makes for great wrestling practice.

Just out of curiosity, what DOES Dwarf Fortress smell like?

What is hillarious is Pinching is effectively the most painful thing in the game.

You can make enemies full unconscious with pinches to the ears for example

Not to mention, it drops the creature unconscious without damaging it. Sometimes this may be desirable, depending on how you have fun.

Personally, when slaughtering elf children, I don't mind gouging their eyes out. Same results, less wrestling moves. Elves don't need eyes.

I always go for the eye gouging.  Painful enough to make the non-warriors pass out, completely disables attackers at anything but the shortest range, and preps them for the disarming and joint breaking.  Pinching only seems to work well on the attackers who are so weak in the first place that breaking joints/gouging eyes takes only one attempt.

Gouging eyes out is so fun, too bad you cant collect the eyes off of the corpse or w/e.
We might be able to in this update though :D

Oh, wow. I just had this epic mental image of a dwarf with a backpack full of eyes.

Do want new version.

I always sneak in and break the arms of all the archers. Doesn't really matter if they're conscious or not if they can't fight.

From this thread, I learned that video cameras have a dangerosity of 60 kiloswords per second.  Thanks again, Mad Max.

the best thing is you may be able to EAT the eyes.
Hell, it doubles as a food source AND  a weapon!
