I could, and probably will, later-ish. But if someone has already done it that would rock, I don't expect anyone to do it just to answer me but if you already have the info it would save time.

Yeah I'm lazy but that's why I have dorfs to mine for me xD

Does that hold true for all weapons in a category or just 'most'

If it differs are the differences worth worrying about or not? 

I've tended to notice swords are more consistent in what they do, not good not bad but you tend to get the same performance every time, spears are what are throwing me off, they seem to have a tendency to get lucky at the most inappropriate times (damn you berserk dorfs!).


Anyway thanks for the info may need to try out the arena a bit *sigh* this could eat up a few days

Is there a comprehensive list of weapon (and armor) types and materials that compares the effectiveness as weapon type and/or armor penetration/ naked effectivness in a simple format?

I remember a thread about it but I can't seem to find it again, search is being decidedly unhelpful today.

Best idea I could come up with for that is a couple of floodgates on either side of your 'bath' channel. connected it up to a cavern or off map and just flush it every so often. only downside is getting the level low enough that your dorfs can wade through it again. Or you could just dfcleanmap it 

Been trying to find a way to connect a river to an underground reservoir and drowning chambers. I have noticed that fish will keep getting through grates, bars and fortifications. Is there anyway of keeping fish contained in 1 area of my system.

Forgot to build traps over entrance to fort, fire imp runs inside unnoticed.
manages to somehow end up in the booze storage area.

I then realize booze explodes
