For two weeks, the city of Bastion stopped being a settlement and became a weapons factory. The Code of the Spiral was in full effect: The Machine Must Turn.
The Troglodytes were outfitted with heavy Star-Iron mauls and pickaxes. They didn't need sharp edges, they just needed pure, concussive mass to crack golden breastplates and shatter ribs through the armor.
The Grey-Fins, under Captain Razor-Fin, received new spear-tips. The dark metal was serrated and coated in the hardened, toxic sap of the swamp trees. Razor-Fin tested his new spear by thrusting it through a solid block of granite. It pierced the stone with a satisfying CRACK.
The Kobolds were too small to wield heavy Star-Iron melee weapons effectively. Instead, Moss-Eye and the tinkers designed armor-piercing bolts for their heavy crossbows, and reinforced their traps with Star-Iron tripwires that a Paladin's blade couldn't cut.
