40d Talk:Werewolf

I've noticed a LOT of variability in how dangerous these things are. Sometimes my woodcutters will demolish them in one hit, other times I'll get torn to pieces instead. They universally butcher dogs from what I can tell. Anybody else have any experience with them? --Gotthard 13:04, 18 December 2007 (EST)

First Werewolf was taken down by 3 unskilled dwarves. Killed a dog with one attack, and wounded a dwarf (Eye gone, Brain yellow) before giving in. The second werewolf, well, I had two skilled wrestlers to attack him. However, one of them was constantly going home (Rest, Fill Waterskin, ...), so effectively I attacked it with one wrestler, which was unsuccessful, because the bitch regenerated too fast. At some point, it got the advantage and took him down.--Qwertyu 20:40 17 March 2008 (UTC+1)

Kobold bulb around neck or risk becoming werewolf

Is this true?--Richards 01:53, 22 April 2008 (EDT)

Personally, I think it is just vandalism. At least I cannot confirm this, however, I had no kobold bulbs to check if my victim tried to put them on. Qwertyu 04:05, 22 April 2008 (EDT)

I haven't experienced dwarves turning to werewolves. I got an immigrant wave and there was a werewolf nearby, it killed a few and the rest didn't turn to werewolves although I didn't have any kobold bulbs. Also I think it is impossible to hang vegetables around the neck. At least it isn't possible in adventure mode so I don't think it is in fort mode. So I think it is a joke. Almost funny, but confusing. --LASD 14:12, 22 April 2008 (EDT)

This can easily be verified in the code. And there's no such thing in the Werewolf game object. Its a fake. – unsigned comment by Booken

Infected meat?

I just started a new fort and before I knew what was what all my dogs were struck down by a werewolf. It ran off after my mule and I quickly hauled the dog corpeses inside. But my dwarves refuse to butcher them, claiming they need unrotten butcherable corpse. --Juckto 00:35, 19 May 2008 (EDT)
