The major change the site will be seeing as we reopen is going to be a total reworking of the troop markets, people can no longer buy troops (Which is stupid anyways ;D) Instead they will recruit people and buy their equipment themselves.
Every week when you collect your pay you also collect more troops - this is worked out by your Leadership + Political ability - the more well know as an important figure and good leader the more people will want to follow you. To start with these will all be milita - it is up to you to equip them exactally how you want to make up your army.
If your men die you keep the equipment regardless, but need to recruit more men to your army to use them. You can buy additional malita - at a high price, or go out and attempt to recruit the people (The better the post and reasons the more may join)
You can customize your army however you want, be creative - and any weapons that you want but arn't there could be added if we think they'd be used. Troops can carry 3 weapons at a time (2 handed weapons count as 2) as well as shield, they only have 2 hands so can only use 2 weapons at a time - shields can however be used instead as one weapon and as well as 2 handed weapons. Shields also give the wearer armor for more protection. Each weapon comes with training - the more expensive the weapon the better the training will be.
Right now every start getting creative with your army!
100 Mounted dual swordsmen with crossbows
100 Phalanx Spear/Shield men
100 Sword and Mace men on Titans
As some examples
