So in my game all the stuff goblins carry is auto-forbidden.

Are you sure you didn't change some "Forbid" settings? Or use the stocks screen too generously?

Hmmm.... thinking about it, I may have unforbidden the equipment of my friendly goblins right after reclaim, though I don't recall doing it. I've certainly never unforbidden items of invaders, and yet my dwarves tried to use their (unforbidden) stuff. Perhaps it was an one-time glitch, I don't know. Will report once I get invaders again.

This may have something to do with the forbid settings in options, but that would be a bug anyway. The options should affect whether items get forbidden AFTER killing an invader, not before.

On a related note: dwarves can be assigned equipment that belongs to traders... ie. that lies in the trade depot but is not yet yours. They can't pick it up though, which results in unarmed soldiers.

Theres according setting in 'dwarf orders' section. You should check that it is set to 'forbid'.

You mean the "forbid options" with the note that "all forbidding occurs at the time of dead?" But I'm not talking about equipment that drops from corpses. I'm talking about equipment that's carried by someone well alive.

The bug is that they're trying to wear clothing that's already worn by someone else who isn't going to drop it. Nothing to do with it being forbidden or not. See the previous report, 0000501.

If you have a save where a soldier is assigned equipment that a living goblin is currently wearing, you should probably upload it to http://dffd.wimbli.com/ [^]

I don't have such a save with active ambushers but I have one where a soldier is assigned a crossbow that's carried by a caged goblin. Does it count? :)

Yup. I half suspect that this is the kind of problem Toady won't need a save for, but it definitely won't hurt.

Well then, here it is. The marksdwarf named Shem has been assigned a (copper bow). Viewing the stocks screen, the only (copper bow) there is is being held by a goblin archer trapped in cage.

This should be fixed for 0.31.06. Generally the auto-forbid on incoming inventories would handle it, but I've put in a separate check now.
