Sinew is used to make bows mostly. You get it by killing [[animals]].

Animal

2005-08-02T19:45:01Z

Kyleca:

There are many different animals in the Cantr world. These are the only non-player characters in the game - all other characters you encounter are played by other players like you.

Animals in Cantr are always living in groups or packs, but a pack can be only one animal large. Animals can reproduce, travel from one place to another, and attack characters. In return, you can attack animals and when you kill them, you'll get some [[Animal_Products|products]] such as bones ([[Large Bones|big]] and/or [[Small Bones|small]]), [[meat]], [[sinew]], [[hide]], [[fur]] or [[feathers]]. (What you get depends on the type of animal.) Usually the animal parts end up in your inventory but if there's not enough room, they fall on the [[Ground|ground]].

There are plans to 'individualise' animals, so that they do not live in packs anymore, which will allow for new features like animals entering (and being locked up in) buildings or vehicles, animals being domesticated, etc. But this is all future planning which might take some time.

Weapons and protection

2005-07-20T01:02:03Z

Kyleca:

The first thing you should know about weapons and protection is that Cantr II is not a "Hack and Slash" game. You can only attack an individual once per day. However, in any society, there are instances when violence is necessary.

== Basic Weapons ==

Weapons that require no tools or machinery to make are ideal for newspawns.

In combat situation, basic weapons are usually (but not always) blocked by shields. However, even a basic weapon will increase the damage you do to animals and to people, if you bypass their shields.

'''List of Basic Weapons'''
*[[Bone_Club|Bone Club]]
*[[Bone_Knife|Bone Knife]]
*[[Primitive_Bow|Primitive Bow]]

==Bladed Weapons==

Most bladed weapons have two parts. To build the blade, you require an small sharpening block in the room, as well as a flatter, set hammer, peen hammer, and sledgehammer in your inventory while working on the project. The other part of the weapon varies widely; check each weapon for more information.

To attach the blade to the hilt or shaft, just start a project to build that weapon, and then add the required parts to the project. You'll need a peen hammer to attach the blade, and an anvil in the room.

'''List of Bladed Weapons'''
*[[Claymore]]
*[[Longsword]]
*[[Rapier]]
*[[Sabre]]
*[[Scimitar]]
*[[Short_Sword|Short Sword]]

==Bows==

Bows require various parts in construction. You'll need to start a project for the bow you want, and add all of the required objects. Most are made of wood, and require tools like a knife, or a carving knife.

To create almost any bow you'll need a bowstring. This can be made out of practically any [[clothing]] material, or sinew in the case of the primitive bow. You'll need a twiner to create string, and then a [[Machines#String_Jig|string jig]] to create a bowstring.

To assemble any bow except the primitive one, you'll need a [[Machines#Bow_Stringer|bow stringer]] in the room.

*[[Longbow]]
*[[Compound_Bow|Compound Bow]]
*[[Composite_Recurve_Bow|Composite Recurve Bow]]

== Other Ranged Weapons ==
*[[Atlatl]]
*[[Apache_Throwing_Star|Apache Throwing Star]]
*[[Blow_dart_pipe|Blow dart pipe]]
*[[Boomerang]]
*[[Crossbow]]

==Shields==

[[bone shield|Bone shields]] are a wise thing to build for a character without much access to anything. They can be created without the use of anything other than bones and a little hide. You'll need some small bones as well as some large bones, and a knife to construct it. Luckily, bone will do.

A [[buckler]] is an economic choice for decent protection against [[Animals|animals]]. They require a small amount of [[wood]] and [[hide]], and a [[hammer]] to construct.

A [[Wooden_Shield|wooden shield]] is ideal for young characters, as it does not take much refining to get. All you need to do is get 500 grams of wood, which can be gathered as a raw resource, unlike [[iron]]. While not quite as good as an iron shield, this will protect against almost all animal and [[newspawn]]-gone-crazy attacks.

If you manage to kill a desert tortoise, their shells make excellent shields. Better than wood but not quite as good as iron. Of course, if you have a weapon that can kill a desert tortoise, you probably don't need a tortoiseshell shield.

A [[Chitin_Shield|chitin shield]] is a rare item that is made from the shell of a [[Scarab|scarab]].

An [[Iron|iron]] shield is the best protection cantr has to offer. Only the biggest beasts of animals, and the strongest weapons can get through it. Certainly an essential for combat. Requires a hammer to make.

[[Targe|Targes]] are the most unique shield, as it has both offensive and defensive capabilities.

== Tools ==

Certain tools, generally for their own specialized uses in manufacturing, can double as a weapon implement. These are usually poor in their effectiveness.

*[[Axe]]
*[[Bone_Knife|Bone Knife]]

*[[Pickaxe]]
*[[Screwdriver]]
*[[Shovel]]

Primitive bow

Kyleca:

A simple weapon, the primitive bow just takes wood and sinew to make.

Sinew

Kyleca:

Sinew is used to make bows mostly. You get it by killing animals.
