No migrant is useless.
Every migrant comes to the fort with the *Legendary goblin bait* skill.

I'd have to say that I'm with the people who just turn EVERY SINGLE IMMIGRANT into a mason.

I honestly don't see any immigrants as useless. If i get someone with professions i don't need, then i assign them to professions i do need. So they might take longer to get to a good proficiency with those jobs, big deal.

Even worse are adequate Potash Makers.

They aren't even good at being useless; imagine giving them an important job.

Two words : Dwarven Children

Worst DAY EVER , man seriously I don't want child snatchers from the first f***ing wave
And all they do all day long is to talk and throw parties
Him snatched = 2 other dwarfs posibly dead... you know tantrums and stuff

Atleast when he grows up he will be a good broker
