This | + | '''Danger room''' was a term used to describe a place your dwarves go to be continually poked by [[Trap#Upright Spear/Spike|upright spikes]]. This serves two purposes: first, it [[Train|trains]] your dwarves in [[Combat_skill#Equipment_skills|Armor User skill]], [[Combat_skill#Equipment_skills|Shield User]], [[Combat skill|Dodger]] and to some extent also [[Combat_skill#Weapon_skills|weapons skills]] (if they manage to block attacks with them). Second, it helps keep your [[doctor]]s' skills from rusting, and your [[coffin]] makers busy. |

However, recent modifications to the combat system have made danger rooms quite dangerous and barracks training significantly more effective, so small-group [[sparring]] is currently the recommended training regimen. | |
