What happens to severed limbs of iron men?

I'm pretty sure that they behave in the same way as the remains of vermin, just disintegrating without giving you anything. [[User:Bouchart|Bouchart]] 19:00, 4 March 2008 (EST)

Tony Stark can be found dwelling on maps with [[chasm]]s or [[cave|cave complexes]]. Like [[undead]], he will ignore missing limbs, never bleed to death, and, consequently, will generally ignore pain (if he in fact feel any). [[Weapons]] and [[ammo]] don't get stuck in his body, which can be helpful when fighting him with [[spear]]s or [[crossbow]]s. When an Tony perishes, it leaves behind a [[item_value|masterpiece]] [[iron]] [[statue]] (worth 3000☼).

Has he lost his mind?
 +
Can he see or is he blind?
 +
Can he walk at all,
 +
Or if he moves will he fall?
  
had 2 woodcutters, complete rookies, chop 1 and a couple batmen to death in seconds --[[User:Digger|Digger]] 19:05, 4 March 2008 (EST)
+
Is he alive or dead?
 +
Has he thoughts within his head?
 +
We'll just pass him there,
 +
Why should we even care?
  
:A single lucky shot can take down almost anything.  That doesn't mean it's easy to beat normally.  --[[User:FunnyMan|FunnyMan]] 19:26, 19 March 2008 (EDT)

He was turned to steel,
 +
In the great magnetic field!
 +
When he travelled time
 +
For the future of mankind!
  
::I'm going to back up digger on this issue: I had a masterwork iron statue turn up when I forgot that I had left my woodcutter drafted to scare off a kobold thief. 1 of 2 iron men down I thought (correctly). Then I  activated my assorted hunters (somehow - maybe because of my tropical biome - I had managed to have quite a few hunters turn up as migrants) and they got SLAUGHTERED even though they were supposed to be shooting from the other side of a chasm (iron man went running around the chasm to attack them... and they charged to the battle even though they are crossbow dwarves???).
+
Nobody wants him...
::When I equipped half a dozen draftees with obsidian swords and leather armour they fared much better and turned the iron man into a statue with no dwarven casualties. Nobody had any military skill prior to the assault.
+
He just stares at the world.
::So based on the observations of 2 I am removing the advice regarding using crossbows to kill them.[[User:GarrieIrons|GarrieIrons]] 23:21, 23 September 2008 (EDT)
+
Planning his vengeance,
:::I'll disagree with you there - you just need a semi-decent crossbowdwarf squad and a safe place to shoot from. --[[User:GreyMario|GreyMaria]] 01:08, 24 September 2008 (EDT)
+
That he will soon unfold...
  
== Halloween stuff ==
+
Now the time is here,
There was a frightening storm outside, and every dwarfkin had gathered around the cosy fire in the main dining hall while their parents were tending to necessary tasks. Light from the fireplace danced and twinkled on the masterpiece iron statue that decorated the hall. All of a sudden ...
+
For Iron Man to spread fear!
--[[User:Aykavil|Aykavil]] 10:11, 8 July 2008 (EDT)
+
Vengeance from the grave,
 +
Kills the people he once saved!
  
::Umm, what? Was there any particular purpose to this? ~ [[User:Midna|Midna]] 03:29, 5 December 2008 (EST)
+
Nobody wants him...
 +
They just turn their heads
 +
Nobody helps him,
 +
Now he has his revenge!
  
:::Iron men are sneaky? --[[User:Jackrabbit|Jackrabbit]] 06:40, 11 December 2008 (EST)
+
Heavy boots of lead,
 +
Fills his victims full of dread!
 +
Running as fast as they can,
 +
Iron Man lives again!

Killing a lowly iron man gives you a statue worth 3000 dwarfbucks. Killing a mighty [[bronze colossus]] gives you a statue worth only 1500, half the value. Something doesn't seem quite right. --[[User:Quietust|Quietust]] 16:46, 24 November 2009 (UTC)

::My point exactly - I would've expected an iron man to give a much lower quality iron statue than masterwork, or for a bronze colossus to drop an [[artifact]] (if the game code were to allow it, anyways). --[[User:Quietust|Quietust]] 13:49, 18 December 2009 (UTC)
