| Sep 13, 2010 at 13:48 | comment | added | DJClayworth | Since there is obviously some kind of competition in getting the strangest title on a Dwarf Fortress question, can I say that my vote would unquestionably go to anyone writing a question including the phrase "I send my wrestlers out to punch unicorns to death". | |

Also, while you are right that you can't move animals, you can move goblins/humans as long as they aren't thieves. I use this for executing the ones in my cage traps. | |

| Sep 12, 2010 at 21:18 | comment | added | Raven Dreamer | @Arda Xi, yes. Is your problem that you kill something outside the fort? In that case, you might need to o - r - "dwarves gather refuse from outside" so that they will leave your cozy fort and go grab the corpse. | |
| Sep 12, 2010 at 21:14 | comment | added | user56 | @Raven - For me, it's never been possible to harvest corpses. Are you using 31.12? | |
| Sep 12, 2010 at 20:34 | comment | added | Raven Dreamer | @Arda Xi, I'm sorry, but you're wrong. The wiki may be a great source, but it is also occasionally outdated or outrightly false. I am currently playing a fort where I send my wrestlers out to punch unicorns to death. The dwarves then bring the corpse to a refuse pile, whereupon my butcher grabs the carcass, and the next thing you know it's Unicorn Brain Biscuits for everyone! | |
