A Rationmaker is a work building under the "crafting" sub-category, where non-perishable rations can be made from either meat, bread, eggs, fruit or vegetables. The player can choose any of these five foods to be made into rations, though only one choice can be made at a time per building. There are two components for a rationmaker, the required work bench which allows 3 workers per placed bench, and the optional auxiliary station, which adds efficiency to the building by speeding up production.

The focus of making rations are to send them to campaiging armies sent out to far away lands. They can be sent out with the help of an army supply depot. Rationmakers are one of the few buildings in the "crafting" sub-category that is unlocked from the start, the others being just the tailor and carpenter.
