| − | '''Giants''' are massive [[ | + | '''Giants''' are massive [[Fanciful]] [[creature]]s resembling oversized [[human]]s, and the largest of all [[semi-megabeast]]s. They inhabit [[Lair#Burrow|burrows]] and will attack fortresses once a certain amount of [[wealth]] is accumulated. Female giants are known as ''giantesses''. |
When assaulting a fort, giants will [[Building destroyer|destroy building]]s and pummel any [[dwarf]] civilian unlucky enough to get in their path into mush. However, they are less of a threat than the likes of an [[ettin]] or a [[minotaur]], due to lacking their immunity to stunning, and proficiency with [[weapon]]s, respectively. Giants are intelligent creatures but do not naturally possess [[skills]], and also only learn them at half the rate of a civilized creature, meaning their only real weapon is their brute strength. That being said, giants are still the largest of their semi-megabeast kin and should be dispatched accordingly. | When assaulting a fort, giants will [[Building destroyer|destroy building]]s and pummel any [[dwarf]] civilian unlucky enough to get in their path into mush.
