In the armory you can buy and sell attack weapons, defense armors, ninja gear and shinobi tools. A warrior, mercenary or covert unit can have only one weapon or tool and raises its strength by multiplying with the strength shown in the weapons/tools table.
Buy Weapons and Tools
- To buy a weapon or tool, overwrite the value 0 with 1 in the input field in the outer right 'Buy' column and press the bar 'Buy Selected Weapons and Tools' in the footer of the table.
- You can buy several weapons or tools in one step by inserting a value bigger than 1 or filling in fields for different weapons or tools at once, before pressing 'Buy Selected Weapons and Tools.'
You get more weapons and tools to choose from, when upgrading fortification, siege technology or covert skill in the command center.
Example for strength increasing with weapon:
A single attack warrior without weapon has strength 8. If he has a Wakizashi as weapon, he has strength 8 * 20 = 160.

Sell Weapons and Tools
- To sell weapons or tools overwrite the value 0 with 1 in the input field in the middle of the 'Sell Weapons & Tools' table and then press the 'Scrap for nn Iron Ingots' bar.
- You can sell several weapons or tools of a type in one step, by inserting a value bigger than 1 before pressing the 'Scrap for nn Iron Ingots' bar.
- Sold weapons will not give money immediately, it will only produce 'Iron Ingots' (see Resources).
Resources
- You can sell 'Iron Ingots' to raise your bank account money, by filling out the small 'Resources' table on the left.
- To sell Iron Ingots overwrite the value 0 with a full number of items you want to sell and press the 'Sell for 115 Gold' bar.
- Note that, as in a real economy, you sell weapons for less than their buying cost. The loss in value varies for different tools. For attack weapons and defense armors, 75% of the original cost is retained, so there is a 25% loss. With ninja and shinobi tools, 50% of the original cost is retained, so there is a 50% loss.
