:That can happen if you haven't modified the training schedule for your dwarves so that less than ten of them are required for the training to happen. As of 0.31.25, if your squad is fewer than ten members, you must change the required number of members in the training schedule for them to do any group training at all.

What is the typical max range of crossbows/bows? Based on previous observations, I had thought it was 20-25, maybe 30 tiles maximum, however I just watched a middling-good crossbowdorf (prof marksd/expt arch) spear a buzzard out of the sky at a range of 55 (diagonal) tiles...!

:55 diagonal tiles would be 55 tiles north, 55 tiles west, and 55 tiles up (for instance). It's likely that range does not take diagonality into account (that would be consistent with other range checks like sighting distance). So the effective range that the marksdwarf shot at would be the greatest of x, y, or z distance, and not any sum of those distances. (Don't know exactly your situation, but 55 tiles doesn't sound likely to me-- a single, central marksdwarf could then cover the entirety of a 2x2 embark.)[[User:Vasiln|Vasiln]] 02:33, 19 September 2011 (UTC) | :55 diagonal tiles would be 55 tiles north, 55 tiles west, and 55 tiles up (for instance).
