		+	Currently this chart just shows the raw count (including uniques, such as quest nemeses, which really shouldn't be there); would anyone with more scripting skills than I be able to make a chart weighted by monster frequency? That would give a reasonably accurate impression of the relative frequency of the various sizes - it still wouldn't account for things such as barracks or graveyards, but it'd be more informative than the current chart I'd think. -[[User:Ion frigate\|Ion frigate]] 06:30, 18 December 2011 (UTC)

 Is there a possibility of weapons breaking? I know that if you force the lock of a chest or box with edged weapons, they can break. But recently, when I killed a dwarf I got the message 'The dwarf's broad short sword shatters from the force of your blow!' How is this possible? (If it makes a difference, that was the killing blow.) --[[User:206.75.108.8|206.75.108.8]] 01:49, 9 October 2007 (UTC)
