Bay 12 Games Forum

So I'm a complete newbie to making these sorts of things, but I decided to try my hand in making a specific kind of syndrome. The syndrome I am trying to make would boost attributes for one attack and then damage whatever you attacked with. ex: attack with arm, arm gets damaged. How would I make that work? Is there something I can put in the syndrome that would specifically target the limb you use for an attack or would that be something else entirely?

edit: also on a *cough* unrelated note how much force does it take to break the average dwarf bone?
