About an hour ago I got a migrant wave of threshers, millers, fisherdwarfs, and other assorted jobs that have no use in BlottedRazor. Around the same time I noticed my miners running away from crundles, so I sent ( or so I though) the migrants to their deaths... I was WRONG, SOO WRONG.

For around an hour I laughed as 9 wrestlers and a Sworddwarf punched Crundles, cave alligators, giant olms, and plumphelmet men to death.

...Of course there were a "few" deaths, but at least I killed off all the crundles, and my sworddwarf got to kill a crocodile out of it.

(The best part was a toad with a 55 page combat log... with a single wrestler. Everything on the toad was bruised... EVERYTHING)

I like the title of the squad
and yeah, I've never had any trouble with cavern creatures...
except there was that one time I had to open up my fortress to the caverns, and basically got bumrushed by the 7 or 8 forbidden beasties that were lurking down there
but yeah, that was a pretty mature fortress (20+ years) so I had the military to deal with that
Pretty lol though, when I see a bunch of F's and E's and G's swarming towards a gap thats only 1 tile wide
kinda scary, too

Its a ritual in my fortress anyone of no use is put into a squad and sent into the caverns anyone who kills a ogre gets freedom in return

[slothen]

yeah, anyone who survives a few rounds of combat wrestling a giant olm gets skilled very quickly in wrestling.  I've not really experimented with wrestlers in df2010 yet though.

Let me guess: those who are freed are turned into haulers.

I only squad people who have combat skills, and if i absolutely need to. A good miner also doubles as a good (If not somewhat risky to send out) soldier, as you know.

putting miners in squads without first disabling the mining labor causes a few bugs.

[Man of Paper]

I throw 75% of my useless dorfs in the caverns for a week. If they survive, they're enlisted. They have no other future.

The other 25% are haulers.
