Sword & Shield Simulator News

New locations

Dear players, we decided to reveal to you that in the game ⚔️ will be a little more locations than you expected and we initially planned 😎

Medieval life took place not only in the kingdom town🏰 and its surroundings, but also in remote villages🏞️. So in this devlog we will show you, a a mill🪚, a sawmill and farmhouse🐖🐄,. That is, places that the player will be able/must visit and perform additional missions. What kind of...? You will find out by playing the game.


[h3]Farmhouse[/h3] toto a farm and livestock farm🐮🐷.
The player will be able to reach it by traversing the remote corners of the kingdom🏰
The farmhouse was almost the entire world of a peasant and his family, consisting of a hut, outbuildings for animals and for storing crops harvested🤠 from the field.
The main crops grown there were rye, barley, millet, wheat and oats🌾. Pigs🐖, sheep🐑, cows🐄, goats🐐, geese and chickens 🐔 were raised there. Animal🐾 meat was expensive and went to the tables of the richest. Animal skin was used to make shoes and belts, as well as being used as parts of armor



[h3]The sawmill[/h3] with Forge played a very important role, in the manufacture of weapons. It made all wooden parts and was located in the forest🌳.
It is interesting to note that the sawmill was revolutionized in 1594, when Dutch 🇳🇱 farmer Cornelis Corneliszoon 🤠 came up with the idea to construct a type of crankshaft. It was a simple arm and piston driven by a windmill. The device made upward and downward movements, the man was left only to move the cut trunk.



[h3]Water mill [/h3]a structure with a device for milling grain 🌾 into flour and groats, moved by a water wheel or water turbine💧, located on rivers🐟.
In the Middle Ages, water mills were the most powerful machines available, when the world knew only two sources of mechanical energy other than muscle power💪: water and wind. The most important, however, was water.
It was a reason that in the Middle Ages, they were sauced in processes that would have required enormous and expensive💰 manual labor. One water mill replaced the labor of about a hundred people🤠

[h3]The Battlefiled location[/h3] - Video below :)
It is a place located not far from the kingdom🏰. A forest road 🏞️leads to it, and you may encounter wild animals 🦇🐺🦌there. However, don't let that fool you, it is not a pleasant place. This place is chilling, it is a place of fighting ⚔️ and death☠️.



However, a daredevil like you can take advantage of it. Armor, carts, sword🗡️, helmets, etc. are very valuable loot, so if you want to acquire them you must hurry🏃‍♂️. Other looters could show up at any moment, or worse... knights ⚔️ returning for armor or living comrades.



You have to get there in the first place, and the road is bumpy🛤️. Take your cart drive to find, things to refurbish🗡️ and resell💰. But remember that your cart is not the pinnacle of technology of the current era. It is subject to damage and overloading⚖️, and has a limited speed⭕️ with exceptions for boost🔥, but about that another time.



Once you're on the battlefield, you'll need to acquire valuable finds as quickly as possible🏃‍♂️, you'll have to pull them out, from the bodies🩸 of slain knights, search in the grass or mud and other interesting places. And then put on your cart. Remember, your time is limited...⭕️😎

Curiosity:
many sources from the past state that up to 500,000 soldiers participated in some battles, although current researchers claim that these numbers are greatly inflated. Even 10,000 knights was a large number. And the maximum could have been about 150 thousand knights in the largest battles.
The logistics of battles with such huge numbers of soldiers would have been practically impossible, an army of 100 thousand crossing the road to the battlefield would have formed a procession as long as 50km

[h2]What do we associate the Midieval time with?[/h2]
We associate the Midieval time not so well - it was a time of the Inquisition🗡️, witch hunts🧙‍♀️, stakes and war⚔️.
The wars back then were bloody🩸 and brutal☠️, and you'll be able to see for yourself on battlefield ⚔️location in the game.
However, this devlog regarding different topic and this era was not always so bleak. People living in it, lived closely👨‍👨‍👧‍👧👨‍👨‍👧‍👧 with each other, especially the bourgeoisie and lower classes. It was easier and cheaper ⬇️ that way, and that's also how it was on the streets. The cities were dcrowded and bustling


[h2]In our urban 🏰location you will be able to find stalls, stalls stores like the ones below[/h2]

Some even very reminiscent in their function of those of our time, we are presenting as work and progress and ready

Vegetable and fruit stall ⚖️🍏🥕🧅🍅

Welcome to the third devlog of


We want to show you an important tools which is a wheeled cart used by our hero to transport prey from the battlefield. The first cart will be small and difficult to drive, thanks to the gold earned, it will be possible to upgrade and customization. As the game progresses, the number of upgrades and customizations will increase. The cart will be used to transport such things as armor, swords, anything of value that will fit on it, as well as the necessary materials for the forge.

However, the development of the forge and the business as a whole will require a change of the wheel cart, in subsequent stages of the game the player will be able to acquire a new, larger wheel cart so that he can also acquire larger pieces of equipment for the army, such as launchers, siege machines and much more

CURISITY: Archaeological findings indicate that as early as the Stone Age, people created and used various inventions to facilitate the transport and carriage of heavy objects. In about 6000 BC, it was common practice to roll a transported object on wooden shafts in a spear.
