Weapons are used by military dwarves and certain other humanoids in Template:L.
Template:L, Template:L and Template:L also use weapons for their Template:L and if need be will also Template:L using them. Hunters seem to be limited to Template:L while miners and woodcutters use Template:L and Template:L respectively.
If you find your dwarves wearing more than one weapon - or any unwanted Template:L, for that matter - one way to get rid of them is to dump the weapon from their v-i screen. This does not work always, they may re-equip. Another option is to remove any weapons and shields listed on their military equip screen. This too does not work always. At least "left-handedness" seems to not pose a problem.
Using weapons is much more effective than unarmed combat- an untrained swordsdwarf with an Template:L weapon can defeat a grand master Template:L, provided he wears no armor.
There are many different types of weapons:
| Type | Size | Attack Type1 | Foreign3 |
|---|---|---|---|
| 2H Sword | 900 | Edge | Yes |
| Battle Axe | 800 | Edge | No |
| Blowgun | 150 | Blunt2 | Yes |
| Bow | 300 | Blunt2 | Yes |
| Crossbow | 400 | Blunt2 | No |
| Flail | 500 | Blunt | Yes |
| Great Axe | 1300 | Edge | Yes |
| Halberd | 1200 | Edge | Yes |
| Large Dagger | 200 | Edge | Yes |
| Long Sword | 700 | Edge | Yes |
| Mace | 400 | Blunt | No |
| Maul | 1300 | Blunt | Yes |
| Morningstar | 500 | Edge | Yes |
| Pick | 500 | Edge | Yes |
| Pike | 800 | Edge | Yes |
| Scimitar | 300 | Edge | Yes |
| Scourge | 300 | Edge | Yes |
| Short Sword | 300 | Edge | No |
| Spear | 400 | Edge | No |
| War Hammer | 400 | Blunt | No |
| Whip | 100 | Blunt | Yes |
There are also three training weapons, a wooden sword, wooden axe, and wooden spear. Each is designed for use in Template:L.
Notes
- Most edge weapons (and others) have a secondary, albeit less common attack, such as a sword striking with the pommel (bash).
- Weapon's melee attack only. Ammunition uses edge.
- The 'Foreign' identifier means that the weapon must be imported - dwarves don't know (or care) how to make these weapons or their ammunition.
