I notice that the Military screen lets me equip squad members with both a melee and ranged weapon.

Does this work? Will the dwarf take and use both? If not, what is the consequence?

Speaking of reclaiming...

If I have been dumping all my extra stone into a dump zone, and I say I want to reclaim it, do my dwarves just come and get a piece of stone when they need it? Or will they try and come and get it all back into a stone pile, in one massive retrieval activity?

Can I selectively reclaim things from the dump? I tried but could not work it out, if I could.

Hi all!
I was wondering if there's an easier way to view a list of all my dwarves in-game (NOT using external ultilities) without having to press V and moving my cursor from dwarf to dwarf. I recall there being a main 'unit' screen back in the old version? (I last played 1.5yrs ago) There doesn't seem to be a comparable one in this new version..

There is still the u key from the main menu that lists all your dwarves, pets, wild animals, and anything other creature in your area.

I have a couple of hopefully simple questions.

I have trapped some goblins and trolls, and they have been carried to my Animals pile. How to I kill them and "liberate" their equipment?
I also have some wild animals (mainly lizards) that have been caught and caged there. Can I butcher them for meat and skins? If so, how?

Thanks.
