Quick notes
- Deliver equipment to the armory. A weapon in the production chain is not ready for recruitment until it reaches the armory.
- Recruit a role you can supply. Archers only need bows, while armored troops need several items.
- Keep peasants available. Recruitment also consumes an available peasant and gold.
- Use the right training building. Ordinary troops come from the barracks.
Useful tip
Ordinary troops come from the barracks. Engineers and laddermen use the Engineers Guild, and tunnelers use their own guild. Siege warfare therefore requires more than an armory full of swords.
