      * time: as given
      * priority: 3

Make the indicated item. qty defaults to as many as possible. Each of the following items requires one day each to produce:

      num   item           skill    material
      ---   ----           -----    --------
       40   hvy. crossbow  1106     wood [77] & iron [79]
       72   longbow        1106     yew [68]
       73   plate armor    1106     iron [79]
       74   longsword      1106     iron [79]
       75   pike           1106     wood [77]
       80   leather        none     ox [76]
       84   blank scroll   1500     lana bark [64]
       85   crossbow       1106     wood [77]
       94   woven basket   none     none
       95   clay pot       none     none

Knowledge of Weaponsmithing [1106], a subskill of Combat [1100], is required to make weapons and armor. Alchemy [1500] must be known to produce blank scrolls from lana bark. No skills or input materials are needed to make woven baskets or clay pots.

Examples:

To make 5 longbows from 5 yew (a kind of wood):

      make 72 5               # takes 5 days

To make 1 plate armor from 1 iron:

      make 73 1               # takes 1 day

To make 5 woven baskets:

      make 94 5               # takes 5 days

Although making pots and baskets is considered menial labor, some desperate nobles have resorted to selling them in cities to earn gold. Each city in Olympia either buys woven baskets or clay pots.
