| :: Cost:
| |
| | |
| Axe

| :: Cost:
| |
| | |
| Mace
| |

| |
| :: Cost:
| |
| | |
| ===Polearms===
| |
| | |
| Spear

| |
| :: Cost:

| |
| :: Cost:
| |
| | |
| Pike
| |
| : Perhaps the simplest and most effective way to arm an army. Pike formations are equally able to ward off cavalry and opposing infantry with a forest of pikes. Against disciplined enemy infantry armed with pikes, engagements tend to become a contest of endurance in the "push of pike".

| :: Cost:
| |
| | |
| ===Ranged===

| :: Cost:
| |

| Crossbow

| |
| :: Cost: | |
| | |
| Arbalest
| |
| : The more powerful metal cousin of the basic crossbow, an arbalest is one of the deadliest ranged weapons around.
| |
| :: Cost:
| |
| | |
| Arquebus
| |
| : Simple and easy to construct, the Arquebus was the first firearm used by the Alfar Imperial Legions.
| |
| :: Cost:
| |
| | |
| Leadcaster
| |
| : More expensive and much more complex than a simple Arquebus, the magitech Leadcaster is the pinnacle of recent firearm development.
| |
| :: Cost: | |
| | |
| Hand Leadcaster
| |
| : A compact version of the shoulder fired standard leadcaster. While it lacks the range and power of the full sized gun, its smaller size makes it perfect for use by mounted troops.

| |
| | |
| ===Medium===
| |

| : Armor consisting of small plates that have been laced together in overlapping rows.
| |
| :: Cost:

| |
| :: Cost:
| |
| | |
| ===Heavy===
| |
| | |
| Partial Plate
| |
| : While not providing the comprehensive protection of full plate armor, partial plate still offers better mobility and superior visibility over a suit of full plate, in addition to being cheaper to produce.
| |
| :: Cost: | |
| | |
| Full Plate
| |
| : The favored armor of nobility and knightly cavalry. Expensive, but is more than worth the price for the protection it offers.
| |
| :: Cost:
| |
| | |
| Superheavy Plate
| |
| : Impossibly thick armor used by monstrous creatures or the super humanly strong.
| |
| :: Cost: | |
| | |

| |
| :: Cost:
| |
| | |
| Light Shield
| |

| |
| : Good defensive boosts against all forms of attack.
| |
| :: Cost:
| |
| | |

| : Useless in close combat but provide exceptional ranged protection.

| |
| :: Cost:
| |
| | |
| Courser
| |
| : A capable warhorse used by mounted men at arms and poorer knights. While not as expensive or prized as a Destrier, they are well suited for use by cavalrymen.
| |
| :: Cost: | |
| | |
