 '''Training weapons''' are [[Edge|edgeless]] [[Wood|wooden]] [[Weapon|weapons]] created at a [[carpenter's workshop]]. There are three kinds available; axes, spears, and swords.

 Training weapons are virtually useless in [[combat]], so make sure that your soldiers have exchanged them for real weapons before sending them into battle, even if it means using a weapon they are totally unfamiliar with. Their utter uselessness can prove useful for [[live training]], however.
