So what do you think?
Double flail [a flail with 2 ball & chains]
Triple flail [a flail with 3 ball & chains]

I think Toady isn't the one you should be asking for these.
Would you like me to help you out in modding them into the game for yourself? It would be a lot faster then waiting for the next update, and this way if you get inspired for any new weapons, you could figure them out by yourself.

[sorry i don't know if this could be classed as a double post]but i agree with the first poster.The only problem is i don't know a thing about modding.

[Max White]

Well, truth be told you don't need to know a thing. Nobody does when they start, but if you don't believe you are up for it, a possible alternative would be to download a mod called genesis. It was made by a guy called Deon, and features most of the weapons you are asking for, as well as many others, and a lot of other really fun features.

Where do i download it WHERE!!!!

Say hi to Deon, he is a friendly guy, and we modders are vain people who love nothing more then feedback.

[The butcher]

Yeah..is there a thing where i can learn Df modding?

[The butcher]

WAIT i have downloaded this before but it is all messed up on my D.F i think i need df 31.03 tiles.
all the graphics look corrupted on my d.f [dwarf fortress]you know it will go on another df screen and it will still have things from the previous screen.
{Edit]I downloaded an early version that wasn't compatible with the new dwarf fortress...no wonder why it messed up

[Max White]

Why yes there is in fact.
Its called the modding forum. Everybody there would be more then happy to help you. Check in at the modders workshop or any other guide and ask about what exactly you want to do.

Be it add a weapon, a monster, a workshop or even an entire race, we will get you there. I specialize is monsters and entitys right now, but for other aspects Deon or Intelligent shades of blue can be very helpful people.

As for messup up grahpics, thats only if you try to use the tileset and arn't sure of how to make it work. I play without it on normal ascii graphics, so its not something you need to worry about unless you want it.

[The butcher]

Alright how do i use that mod with dwarf fortress?[im using 31.03

Before someone gets too modding happy, re:flails - um what?

There's no such thing as a double-flail or triple-flail.  A flail may have multiple heads - although i think there is but a single example of a two-headed flail and none with more - but its still the same weapon type.  There's no reason to distinguish them based on heads. (If anything, additional heads likely decrease effectiveness because of tangling and head-head collisions).

Edit: The sole 2-headed flail example is from the 19th century, and was likely purely ceremonial - designating authority.

Remember, in weapons, awesomeness sometimes precedes practicality.
