Woodcutter+hunter simultaneously active on the same dwarf will make him confused about what tool/weapon he is supposed to carry around. I suggest either stick to woodcutter and axedwarf or to hunter and marksdwarf.--[[User:Another|Another]] 12:51, 6 October 2010 (UTC)

That's good to know.  I'm all about cooking, but I find myself pretty reliant on lumber, too.  Thanks for the heads-up.  --[[Special:Contributions/38.108.125.119|38.108.125.119]] 13:43, 6 October 2010 (UTC)

-:: Actually, woodcutter+axedwarf is just as broken in 0.31, since being a woodcutter overrides the dwarf's assigned military uniform (with one that consists of nothing but a battle axe) whenever he goes off duty; hunter+marksdwarf is likely also broken in the same way. --[[User:Quietust|Quietust]] 14:45, 6 October 2010 (UTC)

-::: So, if I am understanding correctly, uniform confusion is likely causing problems combining these civilian (hunter/woodcutter) skills with corresponding weapon skills, and it's best for now to just keep the roles separate.  --[[Special:Contributions/38.108.125.119|38.108.125.119]] 15:47, 6 October 2010 (UTC)
-:::: Combining the roles of woodcutter and axedwarf may still be a good idea as the highest of "woodcutting" and "axe" skills will be used for combat. At least in theory.--[[User:Another|Another]] 19:26, 6 October 2010 (UTC)
-::::: Pretty sure that's not true - using an axe in combat '''only''' uses the "Axeman" skill, since that's what's indicated in the battle axe's [SKILL] token. The only weapon that uses the same skill for civilian and combat use is the pick, since it has [SKILL:MINING]. --[[User:Quietust|Quietust]] 19:54, 6 October 2010 (UTC)
-::: I was unsure about "civilian weapons" overriding military ones but it does explain my observations. I think that this info would be great to add to appropriate article like this one http://df.magmawiki.com/index.php/DF2010:Squads#Equipping_Soldiers--[[User:Another|Another]] 19:26, 6 October 2010 (UTC)
