This article is about an older version of DF.

Archery targets are used to create Archery Ranges, which are used to train Template:L. They can be built from Template:L, which requires Template:L; Template:L or Template:L, which requires Template:L; or Template:L, which requires Template:L. They can also be built from Template:L made from the above materials.

To make an Archery Range,

build one or more Archery targets in a room/area
query a constructed archery target and make a room
Set the size with +/-, if multiple targets are used they should all fit into the zone.^[Verify]
Set the shooting direction with wasd
Assign the range to the desired Template:L. Squads can then be set to sleep or train there, as well as store their individual or squad equipment, much like a Template:L.

The Template:L can then be used by Template:L dwarves to train ranged Template:L Template:L. Since Template:L are being used up by this training, it is a good idea to Template:L the dwarves to only use Template:L or Template:L bolts when training.

The size of the room (range) must be such that the marksdwarf is not standing adjacent to the target.
If you have a room underneath the targets you can channel the area on the sides of the target to save bolts (falling bolts don't break) but if you completely channel targets out recruits will stop training, as they require a straight walkable path to the target. A floor grate will NOT work. This also can be a case of futility since the dwarfs will constantly be pathing to bolts, shooting one, and pathing again. Stacks are preferred to optimize the time they are actually shooting.
Experience is granted per shot, not per target hit.
Only one dwarf can use an archery target at a time.
There are also 'archery' demonstrations.

Marksdwarves will practice whether their ammunition is designated for training or combat. ^Bug:2840
