With the arrival of western traders, their matchlock arquebuses have come to our Flavor Rank. These weapons are a big improvement upon the gunpowder weapons previously known here, and they promise to revolutionize warfare should they become widespread. Acquiring enough of them is not as straightforward as it might seem, however. The arquebuses are in great demand among those that have seen their power, but the prospect of what they could do in the hands of our enemies, or even an unruly peasant community, is also quite disturbing.
As we start to produce and instruct our soldiers in the use of these arms, we will need to decide who will have access to them and how many we will make.
