How many of each do you need? What type of wood do you want the spear shafts make out of? How long do you want the spears, and do you want a stone or metal point? Do you want londsword, broadswaords or short swords? Steel, bronze, or Mithril for the swords? For the Axes? Do you want Regular bows, longbows, or crossbows? How tensile do you want the bowstrings? How do you want the arrows fletched? Answer these questions and we will be more than happy to produce them for you.

My suggestions on this if you dont have an opinion, would be as following.
80% of your swords as steel broad swords and the other 20% Mithril long swords.

8 foot spears seem sufficient, borbably oak or walnut staves and a steel tip.

If you mean for the axes two be two handed battle axes then Id suggest Mithril, though it is quite a bit more costly, but for smaller axes save yourself some money buy going with steel.

I'd get 70% Longbows with medium taughness, 20% LB w/ high taughtness, and 10% crossbows because they are expensive and hard to repair if damaged. Also, a crossbow uses a little different arrows than the other bows. All the other arrows are interchangable. You may want to go all longbows in which case I would suggest 75%/25%

I see your going for the traditional orc look. I think that evil zombie scum armed with uzi's is a lot more 21st century :sniper:

What i dont get about zombies is that in most films, yes a couple of shotgun blasts will blow them to shreds, but if their already dead, how come they dont get back up again? :confused:

Usually because they're so damaged they can't get back up again. Shotgun blasts tend to do that at close range.

Lol, unless i sell him them, in that case he can, but not to the required standards! What about shields Seph? And also transport, some ponies perhaps? They could be of use.

Also some heavy siege machinery is cool to have in your military, good to take out enemy forts etc. Hope you do well in this type of RP!
