Official training is too risky to undertake now, due to all the bugs; better to hunt wild animals for training purposes. --[[User:Tatterdemalian|Tatterdemalian]] 14:15, 10 May 2010 (UTC) | ::You should also mention all the bugs in the version that is likely to be "current" for quite some time.

- Editors & Contributors - Please include diagrams or clear and well-sized http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Help:Images images if appropriate. For diagrams, use standard Dwarf Fortress symbols for your diagrams - an x is an up/down stairwell, a ╬ is a fortification, a ▲ is an up-ramp/slope, etc. etc. For screenshots, use the standard tileset, not a custom one that few may recognize.
- Please do NOT add a "theoretical" trap design, that you have not actually tested, unless you are 100% sure it will work.
- If your suggestion is lengthy and complex, consider placing it on your User: page with simpler explanation and a link here.
- Lastly, if you can keep similar or alternate suggestions grouped within like subsections/topics/categories, that would be a good thing. Future wiki users and DF players thank you.
Attribute[edit]
I don't get the new attribute system yet - this still needs touching up by someone other than me. Rest should still be good. --Retro 00:09, 12 April 2010 (UTC)
Basic military training Setup[edit]
i added some stuff that i though was missing, its my first wiki edit ever, and English is not my native tongue so i suggest someone reading it trough and possibly even typing it again
the maths work, the way i explained is a very effective and safe way to start up a military and training your dwarves while defending, but my literary skills in English are bad
40d stuff[edit]
There seems to be a bunch of old-version info in here, like not being able to assign dogs to elite warriors, and talking about training up shield user and wresting (as opposed to dodging). I haven't gotten an advanced enough military yet to test or verify anything, but surely someone has? --Zombiejustice 18:00, 12 April 2010 (UTC)
- Crap, that's my mistake then. I went through and reviewed the old article and changed a bunch of stuff, but I didn't think of the skill name changes and missed the dog bit. I'll go revise a bit. --Retro 18:13, 12 April 2010 (UTC)
- You should also mention all the bugs in the version that is likely to be "current" for quite some time. The "individual combat drill" bug can easily kill a fortress if the only dwarf with a high level of Masonry/Farming/Brewing/Mechanics ends up crippled by it. Official training is too risky to undertake now, due to all the bugs; better to hunt wild animals for training purposes. --Tatterdemalian 14:15, 10 May 2010 (UTC)
I'm pretty sure the siege part is 40d. I just trained up my siege dwarves to 3 legendary operators + 3 reserves (ranging from novice to competent) and a legendary siege engineer who can quickly build loads of masterwork parts + ammunition. In less than 3 years. The page gives a duration of about 10 years for such an industry.
