After years of research, Rome developed a new type of armor called "Plate Armor". This armor is strong against swords,axes, and spears. But due to its long time to forge Rome cant product it too much.
@DomoSunz I declare war on you. This war is for Sardinian Italy. I don't really want to fight you, but I do need a new Kingdom. My horde of 476,000 soldiers moves into Sardinian Italy. Since there's no military force based there it should be an easy conquest. Mercy will be shown to the people of Sardinia and if they wish to leave Sardinian Scythian Italy we will supply boats for them to return to Sardinia proper.
Rome can only product 500 suits of plate armor a year, but also its heaver than chainmail armor, but to me its worth it.
Are you sure you don't want to migrate to Poland, heh heh. And Domo hasn't posted a while, Sardinia might go, uh.. NPC.
