Function[edit]

So the weapon and armor racks WILL be used to store weapons/armor if we do NOT have the appropriate stockpile? I thought they were broken in this new version. I'll have to try this, I like the idea of my racks being used, instead of just being decorative. --DDouble 14:30, 16 December 2007 (EST)

Unless this changed very recently, it is not true. --Eagle of Fire 14:45, 16 December 2007 (EST)
Do you mean it is true they can be used or it is true they are borken? Jikor
From what I have seen, their functions are:
  1. "declare" a barracks
  2. decorative (satisfy nobles)
They don't get used to store weapons but they look good. Think of the shiny swords you buy from the gift shop, not the gun rack you buy from the National Rifle Association Official Shop (TM).GarrieIrons 18:49, 31 January 2008 (EST)

Weapon racks and armor stands are confirmed to be used to store weapons and armor respectively again. But only in the same way a dwarf stores his coins and amulets in a chest. --Umiman 10:07, 19 July 2008 (EDT)

If a dwarf acquires an unusable weapon (such as a bow, maul, pike, or dagger), he will store it in his weapon rack. --Quietust 22:23, 7 December 2009 (UTC)
