Hire a villager

To turn a villager into a warrior, you must first train him to a specific class:

Melee: Shift + right click with a sword on the villager.
Ranged: Shift + right click with a bow on the villager.

Once trained, the villager will only join your team after receiving emeralds as payment.

Equip your villagers

Depending on the class you choose, you can give them suitable weapons and armor:

Melee villagers will use melee weapons.
Ranged villagers will prefer bows or crossbows.

Enchanted equipment is compatible to strengthen your warriors.

Management and customization of villagers

Change equipment: Use shears to remove or modify a villager’s equipment.

Mounted Villagers: Interact with a Melee Villager by holding a mount to transform him into a mounted warrior.

General: Turn a villager into a general by interacting with him with a banner. The banner reflects the biome where it was applied, giving a unique style to your army.

Removal: If you want to discharge a villager is to leave their post, give them a discharge letter.

Special items and mysterious merchants

Some items, such as mounts or discharge letters, can be obtained from mysterious merchants. These merchants are distinguished from the wandering traders by their companions: pigs, cows or sheep. Explore your world to find them and enrich your troops with unique options.
