Title: Human Swordsman visits my fort... no sword,,, just a book.
Post by: NTJedi on October 17, 2022, 01:22:30 am

Any way to force a sword into the hand of this visiting Human swordsman ?
     * Forceequip  from dfhack  says it does not work on weapons.


Any suggestions??

Something should exist by the game itself to equip visitors with weapons, hopefully it's added by the developers someday.

But does he have a quill? It's mightier than a sword.

Any type of warrior should not prioritize carrying a book as compared to carrying a weapon.   Hopefully this has been marked as a bug.
