Does your faction wish to have some items that I can make. Hire me. I will even walk to the village of your choice and craft for you.
Masterwork simple swords will make your 1 handed fighters the talk of the town over the falchion weilders!

I work for crpg gold
Kettle Helmet                  33    60.37%   34
Lordly Mail Gauntlets    27    58.00%   39
Masterwork Simple Sword    27    58.00%   32
Masterwork Crossbow    17    52.87%   198
Lordly Heavy Kuyak    9    46.56%   172
Rus Cavalry Boots                   9    46.56%   9

I can verify the reliability of BaleOhay.  He has been Kwynn's town blacksmith for many years and has mastered his trade.

sad no one wants to hire me. thought for sure the masterwork simple swords would sell very well. its basically having a italian sword for the price of a falchion when it is masterworked.

Its a nice rig fo sho, trouble is strat is dieing a death and people now believe justified or not that it will reset come January.

[BaleOhay]

I have a feeling you are right. Well the offer is still out there in case someone feels like going out in style.

Spoken like a true Nord! [insert Skyrim reference]

[To Kill A Dead Horse]

Dam, I wish i knew about this before i spent 6k strat gold getting my troops heavily armed.
That is of course if there was an option to pay with strat gold.

But how much cRPG gold are you charging for the Heavy Kuyaks?

[Muki]

Need to another order hope to see it soon

[BaleOhay]

headed over Muki. Got the thine arms and armor again. Updated the price list

Nice offer, but keep in mind that mw italian swords can cost 44 gold each (it's more than twice the cost for +3 reach, +3 swing damage, +2 thrust damage mind you). (only people who have maxed out italian swords can do it for such price, i bet i am the only person who have near this skill in italian swords in the entire cRPG).

[BaleOhay]

Agreed MW italian is a better weapon.

Where mine shines is Even with my non maxed out skill you can get 2.5 MW simple swords for every 1 MW italian with maxed skill. +3 length +3 cut and +2 Pierce while nice do not help that much when you can not afford enough of them for an entire army.

1000 MW simples will cost you 17,000 strat gold. That is not an easy price for most clans to come up with for just one type of 1 hander.
for that same 17,000 strat gold you can have 386 MW Italian swords. As my skill improves towards the max reduction the decision to buy form me becomes easier.

[Lech]

Especially given that buying mine is quite hard as i have also other nearly maxed out masterwork items and i need permission to sell my items at all (but i accept both cRPG gold and strategus gold).

But your point stand, it's not good if you can't afford equipment for entire army

MW simple swords are some of the BEST weapons for a neutral smith to be able to craft, same with MW faulchard and MW Shortened Military Scythe.
