It is easy to get the impression that the swords and bows are sort of disposable one time items. At least the soldiers seem to loose their swords and bows frequently. I think all soldiers had swords and bows when this raid began, but after the raid had finished, half of the troops had lost their swords and bows.
If soldiers die during combat, and you have auto-replace villagers switched on, new soldiers are recruited and so will have to go and find new weapons etc. Might be what’s happening?
Same thing happens after a barracks is upgraded or moved, the soldiers are disbanded and are re-recruited so you see a bunch looking for weapons.
Yes, that might be it @yoda13 . I have moved the barracks around a bit and if the barracks loose all soldiers when moved, that could be the reason. I have five barracks with six soldiers in each. The raiders are now up towards 190 in strength when they attack. The soldiers don’t have body armour yet du to iron shortage so maybe 30 soldiers would be killed by a large mob of raiders? (There are towers and barracks close to the walls as well so a large number of raider gets killed/wounded by arrows from those as well.
But if the units was disbanded when moving the barracks, they whould pick up the weapons soon again would they not? In my case they havn’t.
