0001214: empty silk bag breaks bones
Another bit of combat craziness. I captured a goblin thief in a cage, dumped his weapon and dropped him into a pit with a war mandrill. Not only could the mandrill not hurt the goblin through his silk cloak (which has been reported before I believe) but the thief proceeded to beat the mandrill to death with his empty silk sack - he was crushing limbs with it.
I suspect this has something to do with the unusually high weight of empty sacks. His empty silk sack weighs 10 units while even an iron warhammer only weighs 3.
No tags attached.

yeah, I searched for both bag and sack and that post didn't come up, sorry.

It's still kind of it's own bug though, something flexible like a sack would be difficult to beat someone to death with, even if it did weight 10 pounds (kilograms? stones? urists? whatever).
