Jeez, someone finally managed to hurt DD. I think congratulations are in order for Strange Wolf, for actually hitting him. It looks like knockdowns are the key to beating Dancing Dagger.

If having a kobold cut you apart from the feet up is 'beating'

Will he kill the archer though?
edit:
Or a minotaur?

Yeah, I've previously noted that Pisano has the best shot (heh) against DD. I've got (imaginary) money on Pisano winning this one, but DD is a strong contender as well. The minotaur is, surprisingly, the underdog by my reckoning. NoQuarter is going up against Pisano unarmored, meaning that he's relying on his natural toughness and his shield against Pisano's shooting. Well, we'll see.

Is this 0.31.12?
this version has a few oddities.
Cave spider silk is stronger then STEEL
Bows (i am not sure about xbows) are overpowered. Copper arrows go trough 'blue metal' armour like it was butter

I have absolutely no idea what's going on in this fort any more. Migrants arrive, they die for some reason, the fort is flooded for another reason, then dwarves go mad, more dwarves die and I'm just laughing in my distress.
you cannot defeat the potato.

Spider silk Is stronger than steel for the same amount. A friend of mine is doing is doctorate to be able to synthetise spider silk proteins to do body armor and the likes.

Actually, he's wearing steel mail.

Match 29 complete! See the earlier post.


CONGRATULATIONS TO OUR FINALISTs: PISANO AND DANCING DAGGER. MAY THEIR FIGHT BE LONG AND BLOODY


Before the Championship Match, Strange Wolf and NoQuarter will fight for 3rd place.
As I stated earlier, they did not earn any points last round and do not get to make any purchases.

Damn, the arrow didn't penetrate the armor and STILL managed to break a rib with the sheer force of the impact.  You can tell because it lists the muscle as being bruised- which means it was not itself penetrated.  Must have spawned with terrible toughness.

No! NoQuarter! Why did you have to lose.. Bleh. I think I lost now. I just have to see how well I can dodge arrows.. Will think of a plan that will give me atleast a *slight* chance of win..

Oh. I checked the tables on page 1, and it didn't list any armor.

... not that the Steel Mail helped. Man, crossbows need nerfing for a tourney like this.
