− | Blowguns are very difficult to acquire in | + | A '''blowdart''' is a pointed projectile designed to be fired from a [[blowgun]]. They consist of a wooden, bone, or metal spine, generally with some sort of plug to build pressure (Unlike real life, blowdarts are made from only one material). Blowguns are very difficult to acquire in fortress mode since dwarves cannot normally manufacture them, and none of the standard [[trade|trading]] races produce them. If your dwarves do manage to procure a blowgun (as the result of a [[strange mood]], or looted from indigenous [[animal people]]) they will find blowdarts even more difficult to obtain. Blowdarts can also be [[thrower|thrown]] or used in melee, though there are much better weapons. |
As if blowdarts weren't handicapped enough, their reduced size, penetration, and speed make them strictly inferior to other projectiles, and the lack of any way to apply [[syndrome|poison]] makes them even more underwhelming. | As if blowdarts weren't handicapped enough, their reduced size, penetration, and speed make them strictly inferior to other projectiles, and the lack of any way to apply [[syndrome|poison]] makes them even more underwhelming. | ||
