If you’re making a professional military squad, you may as well not change this setting as they’ll train all the time. The next thing to do is to set a chedule. Do this by selecting and then scrolling down to “Active/Training” hitting and then scrolling right and selecting the squad. That’s the squad created, but you then need to activate it. The leader of the squad doesn’t matter too much. When you’ve done that use the right arrow key to navigate to the rightmost list and select the leader of the squad, and the other members. Once you’ve done that, select the armour set you created. To create a squad you need to go to the iltary screen > reate squad. The other thing to ensure is that you’re not drafting in soldiers from essential work.Īnother solution, when a fort gets bigger, is to draft in Farmers that only activate for winter (when there are fewer crops to plant) or other militia guards that only activate for a couple of months to train when less needs to be done around the fortress. Ideally you want to draft in a migrant that has a skill in the weapons you are using, but is not essential, as with other skills, they learn on the job. So now you have the weapons, now you just need the troops. This is also because they can train their skills while you produce proper equipment.

The first thing to make is training weapons, as they are easy to make, can be very low quality, and don’t injure Dwarfs training with them, and then a shield. However, these tend to complicate matters and is really only used if you want to have exact uniforms. You can also further customise what the equipment is by options such as aterial which defines what the armour/weapon needs to be from, and olour which sets the colour of the clothes. In this vain, remember to choose a crossbow instead of a bow, as you cannot make bows or arrows. Unless you really want to have your soldiers use vanity items, it’s best to not select them. These can either only be traded in or found on the bodies of invaders. One thing you might notice is that there are some pieces of equipment that you cannot create. Next, hit egs and do the same for Legs, elms, loves, oots, hield, eapons. Do this by pressing down and selected “Brestplate”. However I prefer to define what they wear so all my troops are wearing the same thing. The top option “armour” basically means you are not picky about what they wear, as long as it’s armour. Next use the right arrow key to the rightmost list and select the armour you wish to use. To create a uniform press iltary > uniforms >add uniform, then press to give it a name (optional, but makes things easier if you decide to have different uniforms). For archers, you almost must create a quiver and have a supply of bolts. The other thing to remember is to create backpacks and waterskins so troops can stay at their posts, rather then having to rush off to eat and drink. The Training Sword/Short Sword can be replaced with Training Spear/Spear or Training Axe/Battle Axe depending on preference. What I tend to go for is a Breastplate, Greaves, a Helm, Gauntlets, High Boots, a Shield, a Short Sword, and a Training Sword, which costs 10 bars of metal and 1 log of wood for each solider (For adamantine weapons/armour the cost is 28 bars). What you decide to equip your troops is up to you, but a good strategy is to ensure that armour covers each body part. A good thing about the game is that the troops will train even if they do not have all the equipment and will pick it up as it becomes available. A Legendary Swordsdwarf with a copper sword won’t be very good against a titan similarly, giving a Rookie adamantine weapons is a good way to lose the weapons.īut first, you need to outfit your troops. For this you have the trusty military.Ī good military requires two things: Good equipment and good soldiers. Invaders, Megabeasts, Very Upset Dwarfs, these are all dangers to your fortress that might need a more ‘forceful’ solution.
