Summary0010300: Strangling too unrealistically fast and too effective
DescriptionIt seems that in combat, grabbing enemy's throat with arms and then choke holding and strangling them is almost always extremely effective. Strangling someone until they are unconscious is always instantaneous and strangling them to death afterward while they're unconscious takes a matter of seconds.

The AI also rarely tries to prevent you from choking them out despite having a choke hold on them regardless of their wrestling skill. You can quite reliably win against a grandmaster wrestler with someone of no skill if you keep spamming choke hold on him as the AI makes no effort to break the grip.
Steps To ReproduceCan be easily reproduced in object testing arena. Create a dwarf with no skill and then a dwarf with grandmaster wrestling, take control of the no skill dwarf and repeatedly try to choke hold the grandmaster. He won't make any effort to wrestle back and will just pass out from being strangled.
