Arms and Armoury Workshops
There
are a number of workshops you need to build before you can equip the various types
of soldiers. Each of them costs wood and gold to build and needs a resource to
create its output. You will need multiple workshops of certain kinds as some
of them can produce two different types of equipment.
In other cases, you'll want multiples of them to speed up production.
Fletcher |
 |
The fletcher makes bows, not arrows as you might expect, though one assumes he makes
some of those as well. The fletcher himself looks like an old soldier with a grizzled
beard and a distinct limp. He will take wood from the stock pile and carefully
shape it into either longbows or crossbows.
Bows are needed for archers, crossbows for crossbowmen.
Wood: 20
Gold: 100
Workers: 1
Produces:
Bows - 2 wood/bow
Crossbows - 3 wood/bow |
Poleturner |
 |
You'll need more than just bows to keep the enemy off your walls and outside your castle.
Another one to help you with this issue is the humble poleturner. When supplied
with enough wood he will make you spears and pikes.
Spears are needed for spearmen, pikes for pikemen.
Wood: 10
Gold: 100
Workers: 1
Produces:
Spears - 1 wood/spear
Pikes - 2 wood/pik |
Tanner |
 |
The tanner will visit your dairy farms and slaughter the odd cow to make leather armour
for your troops. He is a fairly fast worker.
Note that killing these cows will have a negative effect on your food production.
Leather armour is needed for crossbowmen and macemen.
Wood: 10
Gold: 100
Workers: 1
Produces:
Leather armour - 3 armours/co |
Blacksmith |
 |
The blacksmith is needed for the more expensive iron weapons. You will need a steady
supply of iron before he will be able to create heavy maces and sharp swords.
Maces are needed for macemen, swords for swordsmen and knights
Wood: 20
Gold: 200
Workers: 1
Produces:
Mace - 1 iron/mace
Sword - 1 iron/swor |
Armourer |
 |
The armourer will pound iron to shape it into metal armour. This is the best protection
your troops can get and sells for rather an impressive amount of money.
Metal armour is needed for pikemen, swordsmen and knights.
Wood: 20
Gold: 200
Workers: 1
Produces:
Metal Armour - 1 iron/armou |
