== Traps ==
Traps are devious devices used to damage or cause other ill effects to those who trigger them. The [[traps]] skill is used in the placement or disarming of traps and affects the success rate. When failing to set a trap the message, "Sadly you fail to set the trap properly, the trap triggers and is destroyed" appears and successfully setting a trap prompts the message "You carefully set the trap" To set a trap, [[activate]] the trap and right click the corresponding tile for the type of trap and click "Set trap." Once set, traps begin to decay causing them to do less damage and eventually disappear. They can only be activated by enemy [[kingdom]]s or , villages, and naturally hostile monsters. Allies, neutrals, and non-hostile [[monsters]] remain unaffected.
Creating traps uses several different skills, these include: [[carpentry]], [[blacksmithing]], [[ropemaking]], [[pottery]], and [[masonry]]. For more detailed information of the various trap types, see the list below.
