Shaft sponsered by TH to new recruits of SAS

After a discussion over a mug o beer in the local tavern Bellos and Vicombra now suggest this for future mayors to see.

When a new recruit of the SAS is in need of a weapon to defend the Crown and town, Townhall will sponser this by selling shafts at 5 punds.

The first recruit to receive a shaft based on this program will be Vicombra.

I would like to state for the record that I Bellos offered this solution to Vicombra.

So all those if favour of this idea say Aye

Bellos voted Aye

Vicombra voted for Aye

Voted Nay

I think since shafts serve no functional purpose for level 0's/level 1's that are starting out there is no need for the town hall to be spending money funding their purchase, furthermore a shaft is only 8 pounds in the first place, not a huge investment if the newcomer would like one.

As far as the army's requirement for the shaft for promotion I feel thats the players choice and if they do purchase a shaft, it show's their dedication to the army, if they are handed it for free/even cheaper then the low 8 pound price then they are not working for their promotion.

My thoughts.

I didn't mean to kill the topic... if you two have any more thoughts on it I'm listening, I just didn't see how TH sponsored shafts would benefit anything...

It would benefit the soldiers of the town.
It would benefit the town if attacked that our soldiers is now armed.
It will benefit the carpenters in Chard that TH will buy some shafts.
It would benefit the SAS structure that we in Chard are strong,

(and it would benefit the team spirit if we battle Bath in combat lol)
