Does this mean you will re-adjust the level for carpenter to make a shield? as it is can’t make it until level 4 which can take awhile.

Yay, I guess. If they still use the same spawning mechanic though, you could lose several workers while waiting for your footmen to figure out that you are under attack when the goblins spawn in your fields, or in your pasture, etc.
Very cool stuff. I am totally one of those players that rarely makes more than 1 footman when i play, it should be interesting to see how much this changes my play style.
Revenge of the Goblins
'nuff said… 
Just as long as we are not attacked by Killer Tomatoes.

They’ll beat you, bash you, squish you, mash you
Chew you up for brunch
and save the rest for dinner or lunch?
*whistle * or you change easily the required lvl in the json-file whistle
I changed the random starting stats for my hearthlings and figured it wouldn’t add to or create another bug but that’s about as much as I know about lua or the json files.
Umm off-topic, but I don’t know where to ask… Is the stream still on tonight? @Geoffers747 / @SteveAdamo I’m debating staying up late for this one
yes sir! 6 PM PST…

just open stonehearth\jobs\carpenter\recipes\wooden_shield_recipe.json with the editor and set “level_requirement” : from 4 to 1 -> fini
about the lua-files dont mess with them they are very important and every little change can get lots of bugs 
Just be glad they are archived and you can watch them later!
