Man at arms are professional soldiers. Watchmen should NOT be on their skill level. We don't need more garrison powercreep
I think we want to bring back some of the roles that have been powercrept too much, instead of bringing other roles to match them (Think of how offensive Desert Rider stats are)
About The Pull Request
Slight buffs to watchman stats so that he's not just a bogman with chainmail. Fun fact, the watchman was actually weaker by default than the bogman. This PR also provides watchmen with access to a revised armory similar to that which the bogmen get.
Why It's Good For The Game
Hardly anybody plays watchman even despite the fact it has less responsibilities than man at arms, knight, and bogguard. Key issues I've noticed from my own experience (I don't really play watchman) and others is the fact they lack access to their own armory and have little reason to play as them in terms of stats and ability over similar roles like bogmen, MAA, knights, mercs, or even adventurers. Even if they have a sheriff to unlock the armory it contains nothing but a few bows, a crossbow and a grindstone.
