Light Pike
The Light Pike does 4 damage a thrust. Pikes are for your zombie squads only; you cannot fight with one yourself. A zombie fights when it holds a pike or a bow and wears armor, and the Impaler zombie talent adds 2 to its pike damage (see Combat). You make it at any anvil from 4 Sticks, 2 Bronze Details and a Bronze Ingot, with Smithing mastery 5, after Bronze Weapons (35 red, 10 green).
The town Smithy sells one a week from its first tier, for 1 silver.

Notes
- A zombie with it and Bronze Armor adds 2 to a squad’s power: the pike’s quality 1 and the armor’s 1.
- Studying it costs 3 Science and gives 30 green and 5 blue.
