Who should be the Milita Commander?
« on: October 31, 2010, 03:49:22 am »
Should my Militia Commander be someone who wouldn't do fighting or should he/she be a soldier, who would train in the Danger Room, defend burrows, etc.? Would the military get disbanded immediately should the Commander die?

he's always the militia captain of your topmost squad, so pick someone who'd actually lead the battle but shouldnt face serious resistance. I personally make my animal trainer a markdwarf and set him as the captain. There's always a swarm of trained stray animals around him, he's not gonna die easily.
