Wanted to try this myself someday.
I think that any moving water between 1-6 will move objects, Constructing a door linked to a 0-3 or 4 depth pressure plate will cause water to come in pulses and thus move the junk.

i always thought that was really realistic, cause in my mind, i imagine ALL close range fighting to involve hand-to-hand combat in some subtle way, and so wrestling gets some minor experience.
Well that could have been the case. If they actually practiced archery at all wich they don't.

Does not work, the item they hold is Owned and thus cannot be designated for dumping or forbidden.
And considering they can wear shields and a weapon they still insist on wrestling

They've got things in their hands right? like clothes or so.
I made a thread bout crossbows with the same problem but it seem the only way to get rid of the stuff in their hands is by using companion - though i've not tried it yet.

Though. it's possible that they will wrestle anyways. just remembered that my fresh recruits ignored their crossbows too.

They still own that goblin attack whith those trousers.
Death by trousers must be rather humiliating.

Hah, It was 5 wide, 2z high and atleast 30 tiles long before taking a turn to east for another 10 tiles before the end where i intended them to fall to their death.
I had a really large reservoir above and 6 hatches. I simply used too much water at once.

Actually, that was not my intention. I wanted them to get flushed out of the tunnel wich ended 10z above ground...
Damned teleporting water.

My High pressure trap was so pressureized that they did not even get pushed, the tunnel was instantainiously filled.

Trapped Spiral corridor next to the main entrance, main entrance gets inaccecible by bridge.
Spiral ramp circling a tower filled with Xbow dwarves.

It's a bug, not simply forgetfullness.
I've tried with 15 dwarves, built and rebuilt Archery targets and i did say that someone had shot at them in my first post, although not that clearly.

Yes i have. and the guy i looked at refused to drop his *phantom trousers* from his left hand and has now a shield and trousers there.

the things that i can tell them to change from the military menu works, but not the rest.

*Sigh*
Does not look good. think im going to go back some versions.
I've started fearing that they will not use other weapons at all.

-edit-
Geh, going backwards did not work and now my NEW recruits are hogging the barracks... with crossbows.
I'm disliking military dwarfs more and more.

They're legendary werestlers & Hammerers. Thought it was time to train some archers too.
They had Shields before but i told them to dump them earlier, I dont think gloves matter but one of the ones i checked was carrying trousers. made a mass dump so lets see if they sharpen up.

-edit-
Due to the item being owned it does not seem i can dump it.
-edit2-
Providing cabinets did not help and due to them being legendary i cannot undraft them to see if that helps.
Now i know where the clothes that always litters the barraks went.
Can Dwarf companion edit items of dwarves?
