Page says certain items like an axe, pick, etc... cannot be shared between a civilian profession that uses them and a military profession that uses them. What exactly does this mean? Do you need 2 of said item for any dwarf who switches between the two. Ie, an axedwarf will use one axe for woodchopping, but upon being drafted will *drop* said axe and go get another one to fight with? Really? (So much for my informal militia who all carried axes or picks just in case...). Could someone please say exactly what is meant by the page's statement and clarify the page? --Squirrelloid 17:41, 18 April 2012 (UTC)
- Yes, that's what it means. --Greycat 00:38, 19 April 2012 (UTC)
SUGGESTION: 'How to attack' section[edit]
As a total beginner to DF, I've made my way half way through this guide when a goblin thief appeared, and naturally I would like to use my new military to defend against him. Of course, I can just read up on this elsewhere but I think a 'how to attack' section would be a worthy addition to this quickstart guide.
- Actually this guide is for setting up your military, not for using it. You are looking for [1]. Also see [2]--Pie Maker (talk) 21:02, 10 July 2013 (UTC)
