I'll submit a gimmick fighter

Om Nom the Snakeman
Biting lvl 6     84
Dodge lvl 6  105
Leather cap  5
Copper helm 15
Iron High Boot 20
Leather Armor 12

Remaining points 9

Snakemen don't have legs so you might want to reconsider the high boots.

They wear one boot on their tail.  8)

Hmmm, I think after this we should do a tournament base off of the characters of great df stories. Or have the winner of this contest fight one.

Random handicap matches would be fun, like in Oblivion. "UristMcGladiator" fights 3 enemies. He gets as ally one boar. Hahaha.

As for my gladiator..

Name : Sharkie
Race : Werewolf
Skills : All on bite.

Hold on, there are problems with some of the builds here. Could someone double-check all participants? I've already found a few.

Mine is clean too.

You're probably talking about
...I'll dare to do this, then.
Kobold, bronze battle axe, bronze breastplate and leggings, bronze helm, bronze gauntlets, Grand master dodging, proficient armor user, competent axekobold, novice striker. If I didn't screw anything up, four points left.

,right?

my setup balances out exactly with no points to get doubled over the round.
several windows calculator calculations and a notepad one confirm!

Mine is now good.  I missed that Gremlins can't use shields.

Yup, that one, and some other builds as well. I am making a list with all the characters and the problems with them. I'll edit it here once I've found them all.

EDIT: Here goes...
Spoiler: Character validation (click to show/hide)

Tell me if there are any mistakes.

EDIT2: Updated the list.

EDIT3: The list is now obsolete, check this spreadsheet instead to see whether your build is valid or not.

I don't think picks have an associated skill that makes you better with them. It would probabley be more prudent to put those points into like fighting or something..

Mining increases the damage picks do.

Also, dualwielding is useless, so you should only get 1 pick. Remove axedwarf and get armor user/fighting/dodging.
