In the early stages of your fort your dwarves will equip themselves, but once enough migrants (13, making your population 20+ dwarves) have arrived your fortress will require an '''[[Arsenal_dwarf|Arsenal Dwarf]]''' (designated in the nobles screen) to manage your armory. The Arsenal Dwarf serves the role of quartermaster; without him your dwarves will be unable to change their equipment. Once you have a dwarf selected, make sure to give him an office - like a [[manager]], an Arsenal Dwarf will need to sign off on equipment changes before they can be made. | In the early stages of your fort your dwarves will equip themselves, but once enough migrants (13, making your population 20+ dwarves) have arrived your fortress will require an '''[[Arsenal_dwarf|Arsenal Dwarf]]''' (designated in the nobles screen) to manage your armory.

A new expedition leader should eventually arrive, although this may take several years. | *If your Expedition Leader/Mayor is killed it can cause all unassigned nobles to vanish from the nobles screen.
