Summary0011007: Military visitors arrive armed with random artifacts instead of weapons
DescriptionMilitary visitors arrive on-site carrying random artifacts instead of weapons. For example, one "marksdwarf" had a quiver full of bolts and an artifact tea wood bracelet instead of a crossbow. A hammerdwarf arrived with a shield in one hand and an artifact slate mug in the other. A different hammerdwarf was using "An Introduction To Locks" as a bludgeon since he'd neglected to bring an actual weapon.
Steps To ReproduceThe steady stream of suicidal visitors from 0009184 allows checking many visitor inventories in short order.

Same applies to ex-poets/writers in sieges that bring their works with them, which you can see the owner name tagline & content of by inspecting the L for artifacts screen, however with those they have usual uniform requirements as per being soldiers that its stashed on their person rather than drawn as a weapon.

Perhaps military visitors are not as rigid regarding uniforms they can take hence when asked to bring a potential artifact don't really check its military worthy.

Edit: Just to additionally make known, that all of the described items can be crudely used as clubs as-are by application of the misc.object weapon skill, if this is where the confusion has arisen in the unit.
