Title: New Skills
Post by: Buggy on October 29, 2007, 06:12:00 pm

So, should I start with a Skilled Liar in my fort?   :D

I am going to throw a few points into some of these social skills and see what happens.  Does anybody have any idea on what to do with them?

I think they have to do with tasks the nobles had. I'm not sure what they all do though.

Obviously negotiator is for brokering. I'm betting some of them are for calming tantruming dwarves, and comforting unhappy ones.

Appraisal helps you judge the value of trade goods, and apparently helps you count your stockpiles. Just make sure that your dwarf with high appraisal is set as the expiditon broker.

It might be the leader's job to keep everyone else in line. I'm at school so I can't test it, but check out the noble screen. You start with 3, and they're workers too!   :eek:
