The '''Army''' consists of the player's Combatants (Militiamen, Soldiers and Knights), who are organised into Companies. These Companies can be sent out on military [[Quests|Missions]], and if successful they will return with loot in the form of [[Influence]] and/or various kinds of [[Resources]]. Companies and individual Combatants can be managed in the Army Book, accessed through the Army button on the [[UI Overview|User Interface]]. | The '''Army''' consists of the player's Combatants (Militiamen, Soldiers and Knights), who are organised into Companies.

There are four types of Company; Castle Company, Spear Company, Bow Company and Sword Company. | |||
=== Castle Company === | |||
The Castle Company is the Company created in the Castle sub-building. Because only one Castle can be constructed in a town, the player can only ever have one Castle Company. This type of Company is unique in that its Combatants can use any type of weapon. As a result, it can function as any Company type for the purpose of military [[Quests#Military Missions|Missions]]. | |||
=== Spear Company === | |||
Spear Companies are created in the Spear Encampment sub-building; one Company per Encampment. Combatants in a Spear Company can use [[Resources#Spear|Spears]], [[Resources#Polearm|Polearms]] or [[Resources#Pike|Pikes]]. | |||
=== Bow Company === | |||
Bow Companies are created in the Bow Encampment sub-building; one Company per Encampment. Combatants in a Bow Company can use [[Resources#Shortbow|Shortbows]], [[Resources#Recurve Bow|Recurve Bows]] or [[Resources#Longbow|Longbows]]. | |||
=== Sword Company === | |||
Sword Companies are created in the Sword Encampment sub-building; one Company per Encampment. Combatants in a Sword Company can use [[Resources#Iron Sword|Iron Swords]], [[Resources#Steel Sword|Steel Swords]] or [[Resources#Longsword|Longswords]]. | |||
== Company Level == | |||
For some Military Missions, only Companies that have reached a certain level can be assigned. A Company reaches level 2 when one of its Combatants is promoted to the [[Villagers#Combatants|Soldier]] rank, and level 3 when one is promoted to the [[Villagers#Combatants|Knight]] rank. Combatants can only be [[Villagers#Promotions|promoted]] when their [[Needs]] are filled and they have reached a certain level of [[Combatants#Might|Might]]. | |||

Companies and individual Combatants can be managed in the Army Book, accessed through the Army button on the [[UI Overview|User Interface]]. The Army book consists of four pages. | |||
=== Mission List === | |||
On this page are listed the Missions available to the player (left) and the Companies available to be assigned to the selected mission (right). | |||
