Weapon Shop/Armourer

Britannia's armouries are a key factor in the security and prosperity of the land. Providing both armaments for the valiant and employment for armourers and blacksmiths, these shops offer high quality amour and weaponry of nay types. Most armouries will consider buying used equipment, as they recognize the likelihood that one will then need new. The prices they will pay vary, but expect not nearly full value, as they must make a profit on resale.

The types of goods sold also vary among armouries; shoppers may have to visit many armouries to find the wares they seek. Almost every city has an armoury.

History
Armouries were found in every game of the series, since their trade, weapons, were always needed. Of course, the selection of weapons and armour had increased with each game with the complexity. In some installments, weapons and armour were sold in seperate shps.

''Britannia's armouries are a key factor in the security and prosperity of the land. Providing both armaments for the valiantand employment for armourers and blacksmiths, these shops offer high quality amour and weaponry of nay types. Most armourers will gladly repurchase used equipment, though usually at prices far lower than originally paid for them.''

-from "Compendium", Ultima VI

''Here one may purchase armour and shields made for the protection of a fighting man in combat. Most armourers will also sell weapons, thus completely preparing any would-be fighter. Armour is generally sold piecemeal, but certain armourers have been known to sell entire suits at a cheaper price than the total cost of each individual piece.''
