| − | + | Dwarves have a limited number of crimes: | |
| − | * | + | * Violated an export ban. |
| − | * | + | * Ignored a production [[mandate]]. |

| − | * | + | * Killed a fellow dwarf or tame animal. |
| − | + | The most common crime in a well-managed fortress is "violating an export ban" - the dwarf carelessly carried a banned item to the trade depot, and a merchant left the map with it. It often happens when a noble decides to ban an export - AFTER you've traded away a relevant item. | |

| − | + | Less well-managed fortresses might see dwarves throwing [[tantrum|tantrums]]. Then you'll see the harsher crimes, as they let off steam by throwing items around, breaking furniture, toppling doors, and punching fellow dwarves who are just trying to clean up the mess. Often instead of punches, they'll use the weapons they're carrying. | |

If the crime calls for imprisonment, then the guard will try to fit the prisoner to a restraint; however, if no restraints are available, the guard will upgrade the punishment to a beating. Beatings or incarceration will give a dwarf an unhappy thought. Note that it is usually not a good idea to train this squad to physical perfection and equip them with steel blades if you want your dwarves to survive the beating. Wooden crossbows (especially those made of [[feather tree|feather wood]]) make an easily accessible and excellent choice, as this will not reduce the effectiveness of the Fortress Guard in actual combat. The Guard will fire bolts at enemies, but will use the crossbows as clubs for Justice beatings. |

Depending on how strong the imprisoned dwarf is, it may be possible for them to escape from their incarceration. It is recommended that there be food and booze stockpiles next to the chain. Decorating your jail with numerous valuable decorations is recommended to combat the negative [[thoughts]] of imprisonment. Ensure there is a bed and a table next to a chair all within a square of the chain itself. |
