Maybe this is less flexible than meets the eye; if it's possible to assign any weapon to an individual soldier, then why not their picks or ballista bolts rather than say, blowguns which we haven't even seen yet? And 'any material' might include bone, but how do I specify that for the training uniform?

You can assign picks. Dunno about ballista bolts.

Blowguns do exist; I've been attacked by cave swallow men with them.

I know they exist, I can see that from the options even appearing, and guess from my civ screen who has them. However, not one of my dwarves have seen then, so why would it be an option for them when readily available equipment isn't?

EDIT: Odd, the picks had to be unequipped when they equipped hammers in order to be specifically equipped.

My attempts at a miner military have been quite unfruitful: no matter how much I swear, they drop their pick as soon as they want to train and/or hug Blind Cave Ogres... I've tried both assigning picks squad-wide as weapons, and also as specific weapon choices, to no avail...
