::You would think that 100 dwarfs running around in plate with crossbows would quickly deplete the local wildlife, so it might work. Only problem is they might get attacked by goblin raids while all on their own. I'll give it a try once my current fort starts cranking out armour.

bad idea? or is it the norm?<br>i heard that plate mail greatly reduces the effectiveness of marksdwarves. whether that's 'cause it's heavy and such, i dont know. thus, i've been kitting out my marksdwarves in leather, but they all die pretty quickly in battle (partially my fault - i've been allowing them to chase opponents instead of staying close to their position, meaning they spend more time running than shooting, and die incredibly quick when in close combat, but anyway..). could i upgrade 'em all to plate, so they atleast have a chance? --[[User:DJ Devil|DJ Devil]]<br>edit: and shields. should i equip them? or would it transform their crossbow into a hammer? | bad idea? or is it the norm?<br>i heard that plate mail greatly reduces the effectiveness of marksdwarves. whether that's 'cause it's heavy and such, i dont know. thus, i've been kitting out my marksdwarves in leather, but they all die pretty quickly in battle (partially my fault - i've been allowing them to chase opponents instead of staying close to their position, meaning they spend more time running than shooting, and die incredibly quick when in close combat, but anyway..). could i upgrade 'em all to plate, so they atleast have a chance? --[[User:DJ Devil|DJ Devil]]<br>edit: and shields. should i equip them? or would it transform their crossbow into a hammer? | ||
