I really wonder how you can grab something's eye with your forearm... I can understand head (putting them in a headlock), but eye? Giant cave spiders may have big eyes but that doesn't mean they stick out far enough to grab...


The funniest announcement (and one a lot of people have commented on) is 'Baby cancels Clean self: too insane'.

I have had children grab a hoary marmot's tooth with their upper leg or upper arm.  Since the children ended up in the hospital, I have to think there was something reversed about those announcements.   :D

Nah, it's just how the combat system works with Wrestling. They probably shouldn't be able to grab things with their upper legs, though. :D

I once shot a bear in the eye with a bow on the first shot, cut it up, found another one, and shot it in the eye too. The collective pile of meat weighed more than my house.

In one of the firstfights of my dwarves against a trollIhad one dwarf punch the troll into the lower arm.
One would expect that said dwarf did so by using a mitten, gauntlet or glove.
But not this dwarf...he punched the troll with a loincloth

I am wondering now, whether it was some kind of spare loincloth he always had in his hands in case his normal loincloth gets dirty,
if he took off his normal loincloth just for this fight,
or if he uses  some strange martial arts techniques, which involve punching enemies with other bodyparts than the hands
:D
