I think we need a tongue body part, we alredy have teeth and ribs. Why not a tongue? Injuries to the tongue cause heavy bleeding and the dwarf will have trouble eating and talking untill his tongue heals up (Tongue should heal rather quickly)

A ripped out tongue Causes extreme pain and very heavy bleeding as well as makes the affected dwarf almost unable to eat and talk.

We don't have tongues? This seems like an oversight. We have nerve tissue but not tongues.

I think the entire body system needs a bit of a rework, especially in terms of severs.  Hmmm... severing the tongue could have Fun consequences... 

[Felblood]

We don't have tongues?!

This is a serious matter.

[Footkerchief]

Yeah, I'm all for it.  I'm not sure why they aren't in already -- we already have a mouth, teeth, lips, cheeks, etc.

[Rowanas]

I swear tongues used to exist...

[Pilsu]

We don't have them because they'd get lopped off in combat. Shame really, boiled cow tongue is delicious.

Not necessarily.  There are BP tags that can prevent that.

[Rowanas]

Is it not possible to have tongues tagged as inside but not totally inside? So you can wrestle with it, but not chop it off with an axe blow.

[Karnewarrior]

maybe [EMBEDDED]?

Ideally, this would be done with the new body part relationships -- you can tell the game that the lips and cheeks surround the tongue, etc.  And yeah, you could also make it EMBEDDED to prevent it from being severed (although tongues getting severed is not without precedent, it happens to some guy in the Iliad who gets a spear through the nape of the neck).

Unfortunately, those BP relationships are already being used for teeth, and they don't seem to be working for some reason.

So is that why you can pinch teeth and they get ripped out?

[Footkerchief]

The BP relationships are for normal strikes -- I'm not sure they'd affect targeted wrestling moves at all, since those are very weird.

[Toybasher]

Maybe in wresling you could grab the tongue and tear it out

[Warlord255]

If anything, I'd be more interested in seeing tongues get cut out/torn out and rendering creatures mute.
