One of the joys of this hobby is the things that you will learn to do. There are a multitude of things that you will need to make or purchase to get on the field as a Spartan Warrior. You will need to learn how to fight, and actually fight well -- with a variety of weapons, in a variety of situations. You will need the help of your Phylearch and your fellow Spartans to acquire the new skills. They are more than happy to help an enthusiastic newcomer!
See the links below for ideas on how to make things that you will need.
