[Shootandrun]

So, i embarked on an evil forest. I don't have any undead, ogre, bear, or any dangerous thing except some werewolves. And of course, when i saw a werewolf killing two civilians in two hits, my brain said me «Hey, lets take that thing and use it for war!»

So now i got some questions. As you can see, the wiki article (http://df.magmawiki.com/index.php/Werewolf) dont really give informations. So here are the questions:

1) Can I tame a werewolf without a dungeon master?
2) Will these cute animals fight with each other if i let them in the same room?
3) If the answer is a no, would three werewolves be able to survive against, for example, a average goblin squad?

Sorry if I do english mistakes, I'm not a native english speaker.

Looking at the raws, I don't see a [PET] nor a [PET_EXOTIC] tags, which might mean they can't be tamed at all.
They have petvalues, so I'm not sure.

[Urist Imiknorris]

1. They can't be tamed.
2. No.
3. If you stripped the goblins of their weapons and armor, probably.

You can, however, add the [PET] tag to them and tame them and use them for war. But you will need a lot of them, they aren't all that great.

[Shootandrun]

Damnit. Well then, I will find them a good use. Like, I don't know, war prisoners managers. Thanks for the answers guys!

I wonder why it has a petvalue of 1000 if it can't be tamed.

[Shootandrun]

Good question. I may want to tame one of them just to see if they really have a pet value of 1000. Alright dwarves, time for the !!SCIENCE!!

Alright. I have a little, little problem with taming werewolf. Not a modding problem.

My animal trainer wants, to train a werewolf, to get him out of his cage. Of course, when he does that, I get a crazy werewolf killing people in the fortress. Can I tame an animal while keeping it in his cage?

Perhaps lock the trainer & caged werewolf in the same room?

You may lose the trainer but it would be Fun.

[Shootandrun]

There is no point of doing that. For me, !!Fun!! is about killing a lot of people in a incredibly not efficient way. Why would I want to loose a werewolf, a useful dwarf and get one of my rooms on lockdown for nothing?

[Bordellimies]

I guess the only way you can tame them safely is to mod the files again. Make it to be a tad more friendly, and after that convert it back to normal.

How the hell does that work? Taming creatures only requires the tamer to feed it.

Wasn't the problem now that the werewolf ate the tamer?

[nordak]

Werewolves will be hard to tame, most will be savage(they eat/kill sapients/dwarves).

Did that werewolf already eat a dorf?
