Boar
Colony game at restWild game on the Fortress map has its own colony health and hunting rules. Its carcass can be butchered for the yields listed here.
| Mode | Fortress colonies with hunting. Adventure wildlife uses separate statistics and taming rules. |
|---|---|
| Health | 80 in newly founded colonies using the current combat scale. Older hunting colonies retain 36. |
| Biomes | Plains, Forest, Glade, Taiga, Wetland. These are eligible biome pools, not a guaranteed animal at every site. |
| Herd size | 1 to 2 before the remaining local game capacity is applied. |
| Meat from one carcass | 7 Raw meat. Current colony health scaling does not multiply this yield. |
| Hide from one carcass | 1 Hide when the colony has forge support. Older colonies without that support omit hide. |
| Fighting back | A surviving hit can provoke the boar and nearby boars of its herd within 4 tiles, including diagonals. Its ordinary gore starts at 6 damage in current colonies or 5 in older hunting colonies, before armour, with an 8-action-step cadence. |
| Hunter selection | A hunter below 50 health cannot take or keep this hunt. A free hunter with a loaded ranged weapon is preferred over an unarmed worker. A free ranged hunter with more than 25 but less than 50 health can block a healthy unarmed worker from starting a new Boar hunt, despite being too hurt to take that hunt. |
| Fresh carcass | One carcass is left by the successful hunting kill. Its warm freshness budget is 2 days. Cold conditions use freshness at one third of the warm rate. |
