STOP! HAMMER TIME!

Huzzah! The Hammerer is back. Now I will get to see him at work for first time!

I hope the justice rewrite means we can spare useful dwarves the scourge of hammering without eschewing the position entirely.

And the potential for family heirlooms (noble-related or not) makes me smile.

Speaking of family heirlooms, will adventurers ever be able to start with them?

You wouldn't rush Goya or Faulkner or Tarantino. Think about Toady as equal to those artists. And then deal with it.

In Dwarf Talk, Toady has spoken about your Adventure's children being able to use your old equipment. So in that way, yes.

Toady has spoken about taking over someone that exist in the world, with a preestablished history, but he hasn't spoken about it. But probably.

Wait, adventurers will be able to have families? Awesome!
How long will that feature last before it gets removed due to people beating their spouses to death with their kids' bodyparts?

Why would it get removed?

For the same reason mermaid farming and the "incident" thread were both removed I'd imagine.

The ability to do it in the game was not removed, simply the discussion of it.

Of course. They're not worth some ungodly high price any more, though.

Well, I believe they're also sentient, so not without modding. It's against the dwarves morals.

Likewise, a character probably wouldn't be able to beat his wife to death with his childrens bodyparts without being shun by his community, at least in the final product.

I'm thrilled by the implications of this new justice system. Tantrum? That's a hammerin'. Taking too many breaks? That's a hammerin'. Inappropriate mandate? Oh, you better believe that's a hammerin'.

Or maybe even intervention of angry goods.

Damned Goods, always getting angry. Can't they stay finished?
