::This bug is different - not civilian clothing, but civilian jobs.  They'll work in workshops, haul goods, sit idle with "No Job", etc, and never attempt "Individual Combat Training".  They do appear to equip assigned gear, though. -- 5:50, 10 June, 2010

:::Yes I can verify this bug.  I have version .10 and it is still present-- None of the 4 dwarfs in 1 of my 2 squads will take on 'active' military roles such as macedwarf, marksdwarf, etc...  unless they are performing a move or attack order.  When a kill order was cancelled (because it was completed) they even dumped their weapons and armor right where they were!  At the same time the other squad works fine other than they are all endlessly waiting for a training excercise to begin.  I was able to work around this by disbanding the squad, firing the militia captain & recreating them.  17:00EST 19 July, 2010

::::This sounds like it may be a misunderstanding of the military system, because this is actually the default mode for soldiers.  If their current task is "no scheduled order", they'll do civilian life + combat drills (without the soldier icon, and possibly without uniforms), but they'll respond to move/attack orders normally.  The "inactive" schedule (the '''default''' schedule) has "no scheduled order" throughout. — [[User:Wisq|Wisq]] ([[User talk:Wisq|talk]]) 05:45, 24 January 2011 (UTC)
 
  
 
*When [[Reclaim]]ing a lost fortress, soldiers will not use any armour or weapons assigned to them, insisting on training and fighting unarmoured and barehanded. This behaviour seems related to the [[arsenal dwarf]] position - when the fortress population becomes high enough and a dwarf is assigned to the position, soldiers will finally use the equipment they have been assigned. It seems that, on reclaiming, the game acts as if you need to have an arsenal dwarf right from the start, despite there not being any way to assign one.
