Reinforced Bow
The Reinforced Bow does 8 damage an arrow, more than the Iron Sword. You make it at any anvil from a Bronze Ingot, 10 Sticks and 4 Flax Thread, with Smithing mastery 5, after Bronze Weapons (35 red, 10 green). You fire it from a distance, 10 stamina an arrow against 20 for a sword swing, but it cannot replace the sword you need to start a battle (see Combat).
It is also a building material: every Archer Tower I and Archer Tower II takes one.

Notes
- No trader sells bows, so every one is made.
- For a zombie squad its quality is only 1, the same as the Simple Bow.
- Studying it costs 3 Science and gives 30 green and 5 blue.
