DF Dwarf Mode Discussion / Candy sutures as armor?
« on: October 24, 2017, 11:25:40 am »
Does anyone know if sutures sewn into a dwarf's wounds actually factor into combat checks? The idea of systematically injuring and sewing up a chosen, very (un)lucky dwarf with candy strands until their body is covered in a protective layer of the stuff is highly amusing. But the actual process of basically slowly flaying a dwarf bit by bit to replace weak flesh with strong Candy Fibers is difficult, time-consuming, and uses a very finite resource.
So for example, if a stray arrow was shot at Urist's sewn-up leg in the right spot, would it be protected at all? Or would the weakness of the flesh surrounding the strand fail in spite of it?
