It IS still possible to get grievous injuries while sparring. I currently have two guards resting with injuries, one maimed and one with a broken limb. Mitigating circumstances? Near-masterwork steel battleaxes and no armor. On the other hand, none of them are Strong or anything (or Tough, for that matter). Also I just checked and I have a Wrestler with a left lung and upper spine maimed too, couldn't be from anything else but sparring with the over-equipped guards, and he was wearing iron chainmail AND was Agile, Tough. I'd make the change myself but I'm too clueless about wikis and don't want to break some law of etiquette. | It IS still possible to get grievous injuries while sparring.

Interestingly, I've had no major injuries with wrestler sparring in 3 years. A couple bruises, nothing more. Only thing I can see different is that I have a massive barracks, with 3 rooms and inner doors. When they 'spar' next to each other, there can be some minor bruising, but they gain skill when they aren't next to each other. They do have iron bucklers and full steel chainmail which helps, but my barracks doesn't even have blood on the floor 95% of the time. Perhaps larger barracks are the way to go, or was I just lucky? --Gotthard 12:03, 10 December 2007 (EST) | Interestingly, I've had no major injuries with wrestler sparring in 3 years.

| − | + | I've had many announcements of guards/soldiers suffocating to death due to sparring with a wrestler. --Esoterrik 6:27, 4/10/08 | |
| − | + | That may have been due to miners getting critical hits with their picks, I think picks still have a massive critical boost like spears do. [[User:Extar|Extar]] 23:52, 20 November 2008 (EST) | |

Another report on sparring over 10 years in a single room large barracks. I've got only two notable injuries, both nervous system, and both light grey or brown. They were only acquired by dwarves after I started training spears, and to two of four dwarves who hadn't yet received platemail. In addition to the large barracks I've also been using silver weapons for training and layering armor. They're all also legendary wrestlers before any started weapons training. --[[User:Squirrelloid|Squirrelloid]] 14:30, 13 December 2008 (EST) | Another report on sparring over 10 years in a single room large barracks.
