Gallic Rome (Empire Divided) Campaign Tier 1

Fabricae

During the Principate period of Roman history, arms manufacture was left to the army and civilian craftsmen. Later, as the Roman Empire expanded and grew, conflicts emerged in all four corners of its territory. Subsequently, the army faced great difficulties in procuring equipment when stationed far away from the core Latin provinces. Many Legionary outposts and urban centres were then turned into 'fabricae', or state arms factories. These establishments were also tailored to the needs of the local regiments. Western provinces had 'sagittaria' and 'arcuaria' fabricae, which specialised in bows and arrows. Eastern factories produced equipment for the local 'clibanarii' and 'catafractarii', the heavily-armoured cavalry units. After all, Rome owed its military success to the organisation and discipline of its soldiers, values that were then applied to arms manufacture.
