Please fix the military so we can play. [bad word - threetoe] the melting rain. Seriously.

[Kogan Loloklam]

Your priorities aren't the same as mine.

[thvaz]

Don't feed the troll.

[CautionToTheWind]

Ah yes because the military is not a popular part of this game. No sir, not at all.

Its not a troll just because you disagree.

And seriously, its a shame. So much to kill, so little to kill it with...

[smjjames]

Its clearly more a rant of frustration than a troll, but yea theres so many things not working right with the military stuff.

Magma. Also, magma. And then you could try some magma with water on top.

And if that doesn't work, drop a cavern on it.

I mean, we all want the military fixed, but I think the majority of DFers only use the military as a backup. The true dwarven way is to wash the enemy aside in a tide of boiling rock.

Having my dwarves melt when the weather changes, or my adventurer's skin boil because he went for a swim - these are game breaking. Not having axedwarves, this is a nuisance. One I'd love fixed, but not a top priority for a couple more releases.

This is a bug report.

Fuck the melting rain.

This is also a bug report.

This is the wrong forum for bug reports.

Both these bug reports are already filed.

Also your topic is wrong.

[smjjames]

Actually, the melting in the rain is kind of random so I hear, some worlds have it, some don't. It'll be fixed in .04 .

Try adventure mode. It lets you experience the new awesome cavern system and the awesome new combat mechanics without needing to hassle with the military.

[LeoLeonardoIII]

Just don't go for a swim.

And stay out of the rain! Travel away when clouds are in the sky.
Particularly in hot areas.

You just need to walk between the rain drops

Military has mostly worked for me, just stick with simple weapons ..dont use crossbows/bows, and axes.  My iron plated axe warriors do fine and follow orders...except their leader. 

[Jiri Petru]

+1 to the OP.

This release is amazing, but the whole military, from the interface to the actual combat mechanics is a huge change for the worse (that ironically took the larger part of the year-and-a-half development time). I wish we could have the new version with the old combat and military. But yeah... wishful thinking.

Sorry, mistaken QUOTE for EDIT again.
