Dabbling Growers
« on: August 21, 2006, 08:50:00 am »

I noticed that a child in my fortress had a skill, "Dabbling Grower". At first I thought that he helped his mother to grow plants and learned a bit. But then I found that my Broker is also a Dabbling Grower! I'm sure this lazy bastard won't even touch the mud of the fields. I think it may be some bug with skill advancements received by the wrong dwarves, or maybe it's a feature which I don't yet understand...

Well, I've seen at least my Sheriff hauling stuff from the fields, so maybe the nobles do participate in it sometimes?

I can picture in my mind a world without war, a world without hate. And I can picture us attacking that world, because they'd never expect it.

Everyone participates in harvesting so even mayors, barons and (probably) kings have some skill in growing. :P

I've seen my Sheriff harvesting other Dwarves, though that doesn't seem to upgrade his skills...
