But the problem with equipment is that once it's gone, it's gone; it has long been moved to other places through various channels, and quite a bit has ended up in the Mountains.
This means the Barbarian warriors have replaced their gear with that originally belonging to Bastia's soldiers; at a glance, they appear better equipped, who truly are the Count's soldiers?
And what about the Serf soldiers?
Holding onto scraps that should have been thrown in the trash years ago, the spearheads of their spears have rusted nearly into scrap iron, and the shafts have long since been infested by bugs.
As for the remaining Crossbows that can be found, hardly any are usable; they break upon pulling, and arrows, being even more consumable, are in dire shortage.
Fortunately, the count has maintained a fairly active military to guard against the Barbarian Tribes for years; this part of the equipment wasn't overly tampered with and retains most of its combat strength.
