Well, I enjoy grabbing enemies at ears, nose, fingers etc and pinching them, even with "only" skilled striker most bits sail off in an arc.
Anyone need red paint?

Just sitting here imagining a really buff, muscled nordic guy sitting on the couch after a long day, grabbing someone's toe, and cracking the nail off like a Beer can.

"Aaaaaah, sit on an elf and crack open a cold one".

I'll just change combat prefs to close combat, go cripple a wolf and wrestle to legendary then store my wep in my pack, change prefs to strike, run around bludgeoning to legendary, store the shield, run around kicking punchin n bitin to legendary then giggle at my massive stats.

I feel its around more for stat training and a backup for when you become the armless n legless menace.

(Can't go wrong with gouging eyes out or wrestling weapons away.)

I like Starting off unarmed Ripping the weapons from peoples hands using them until no longer convenient and then throwing them at the nearest enemy.

Get a pick axe or spear, or anything that gets lodged in peeps most of the time. Upon lodging it in someone, just drop it. It stays stuck in them.

Coolest thing I did in awhile with wrestling was get a pike-man and spearman on either side of me. With nothing in my hands I grabbed both weapons. Killed the pike man instantly with a kick, then lodged his weapon firmly in the Spearman's chest. ((auto gain possession if your holding it and they let go.)) I then Tossed the spear man, and he luckily moved a tile. Threw his spear into him, and left him there for the rest of the battle. When the  battle was over I yanked out the spear and he bled out.

Now I carry a steel pick around and lodge it into people's heads. Oddly enough half the time it gets stuck in but does not kill them ((low mining maybe?)) I leave it lodged in their skull and finish them in the same manner.

Only problem? One notable bandit actually managed to flee while I wasn't paying attention, stealing my pick within the large randomized section of his skull. I have been unable to locate or report them dead thus far.

i half use it most the time, a shield and sword stuck on one arm (buckler and longsword) with the other hand empty so i can grab people with my empty hand, usually get decaps and bisections that way.

[Garath]

i use it, but mostly so i can defend against it

[Alestom]

If I am playing as a minotaur, giant or BC Its all I use, Because If I am a minotaur I picture a huge buff guy just throwing people left and right and punching the next one so hard he bleeds out of every oriface in his head

[Gizogin]

Play as a corrupt, and even a lead warhammer pales in comparison to your fists.  If fists could collect kills in the same way that weapons can, then mine would have kill lists many pages long.  Oh, and I greatly enjoy FALCON KICK-ing people in the head.

Even in vanilla, it's hard to beat seeing that "You punch the crossbowman in the left upper arm with your right fist, shattering the bone!" announcement.  I don't, however, go for wrestling.  It's far too complicated for my HULK SMASH-y tastes.

[Xotano]

-snip-It's far too complicated for my HULK SMASH-y tastes.

i disagree with this, you could always just grab someone by the shirt and start punching them

[nerdyboy321123]

I macro'ed one thing that works on all non-soldier humans (they're mostly what I kill anyways) that grabs their throat, puts them in a chokehold, strangles them, and then hits them in the head with my axe. Literally, in my experience, 100% effectiveness

[Wirevix]

I only adventure as modded creatures, and generally their weapons are built in (fangs, claws, huge club-tails, scythe-wings...), so it technically counts as unarmed combat.

And once breath weapons are an adventurer-performable interaction... oohh yes.

Yeah, thats a good Approach as well. Disarming can be very effective, when Your Enemy is Reliant on their Weapon

[UltraValican]

This was from fort mode, but I had a farmer deliver a knock out punch to a badgerman's snotbox...

[Logrin]

Here's a good one.

Grab someone by the pants, then throw them by the head...or outright kill them.

Now, having done that and received the message...take a moment to visualize what just happened.
