Sorry if I didn't make that clear. Maybe I shouldn't have designed it that way, but it made some of the database code a little easier. I'll put that on the to-do list to change for future tournaments.

quote:I made a grandmaster ant woman with 4 shields and let her fight against a tigerman with proficient swords and fighting and armed with a two handed sword. I did the same, they both passed out from exhaustion, but eventually the tiger man bled to death from a lucky bite so it's somewhat viable maybe?

Hmmm... Looks like Toady added a crit effect to bolts hitting unconscious targets. I put a human in full adamantine armor and let 20 crossbowmen shoot hit with iron bolts. They did absolutely nothing until a couple of them hit him in the lips and he fainted from pain. Suddenly, the bolts started breaking bones through the breastplate and the first one to hit the head brained him.

Since it looks like people are already testing out potential builds, here is a link to the modded version of DF2014 that will be used for the tournament, which incorporates the Voxmod changes. http://arenachallenge.com/dwarffort/df_40_06_arena.zip

Gorbash the Minotaur will not be testing anything. He will charge into the arena with whatever points he randomly assigns to skills and equipment that sortof looks good at the time and be happy with it. Then he'll hope he gets to eat some gremlins raw.

Arena Mode for DF2014 sets fighter morale to be off by default, and we'll be keeping it that way. While it might be hilarious the first time everyone runs away in terror at the first gruesome injury, that poo poo would get old pretty quick.
