[[File:Woodenclub-normal.png|60px|link=Club|left|text-top]] To defend against hostile creatures, craft stone age weapons by knapping or carving a club from a log. Different weapons have different ranges. [[Spear]]s are the strongest long range weapon in the stone age, but break quickly. Create a stone spearhead by knapping, and combine with a stick (shaft) in the crafting grid to finish the spear. Wooden clubs are durable but have less damage and less range. Knives, axes, or just plain sticks can all be used as weapons, but these have shorter ranges than the spear. In an emergency, small stones can be thrown at mobs. See also main Article on [[Combat]]
