In order for the hammerer to execute criminals, you must have an available [[chain]] in your [[jail]] - a [[cage]] cannot be used. If you have no available chains, the criminal's punishment will be automatically reduced to a Beating. | In order for the hammerer to execute criminals, you must have an available [[chain]] in your [[jail]] - a [[cage]] cannot be used.

+ | There are multiple theories as to why the hammerer has become a huge role in dwarven politics. Experts claim that he serves no real purpose, as [[Main:Armok|Armok]] usually finds a way to punish any delinquent no matter if no hammerer exists- magma, Justice Spiders, or bridge mistakes usually lead to a criminal's <s>un</s>timely demise. Hammerers do, however, present a sort of a calming factor on a typical fortress, and give any unhappy dwarf a simple, just, and brutal(ly effective) way to let off steam. | ||
