It is well established that the military forces in action during Regia’s period of interest were not simple peasants armed with pitch forks and shovels. They were well equipped, well trained professional soldiers. As such, at the majority of Regia events, it would not be appropriate for someone to take to the battlefield intending to use agricultural equipment as weapons.<br>
However there are, on rare occasions, circumstances where armed peasants would be appropriate, such as a raid on a village where the people have to rely on whatever they can lay their hands on to defend themselves.<br>
For the most part agricultural implements should follow the same guidelines as their most similar Regia weapon in this document. For example, a woodsman's axe should fall into the same guidelines as combat axes and bill hooks and sickles should follow the same guidelines as seaxes and knives.<br>
If you are planning on making a weaponised agricultural implement it us highly recommended that you contact the MaA and the AO before investing time and money.<br>
