Sword

Swords are the most effective melee weapon of the ancient world. Their material determines their resistances and effectiveness. They consist of a wooden handle and a sharp blade made of metal.

The use of swords without shields is limited as raiders will generally use ranged weapons and using melee weapons as a defender tends to negate the advantages of walls and towers.
