A Smithy is an unlockable work building under the "crafting" sub-category, where metal and coal are made into tools, battlegear and weapons, with the help of coal to fuel the furnaces. The importance of this building stems from the fact that citizens having tools can greatly speed up some jobs, adding a massive boost in efficiency to a settlement if enough citizens have them. And citizens having armour and weapons will receive a significant boost in both defense and attack damage when equipped - not to mention those resources are absolutely necessary when sending out divisions.

By default the building will only be able to make tools; being able to make weapons and armor must be unlocked with knowledge points. There are two components to this building: the required work bench that allows 3 employees per bench placed, and the optional auxiliary station that adds efficiency to the building by speeding up production. This building requires 600 knowledge to be unlocked, and an additional 1200 points each to allow both weapons and armor to be crafted there.

Smithies can be upgraded with knowledge points to speed up production.

In-game description

"Workshop that forges tools or weapons from coal and metal."

Trivia

• The Smithy used to be split up into two separate buildings, being the "Tool Smithy" and "Weapon Smithy".
