What is an Armoire

Postby elTegra » Wed Mar 08, 2006 2:14 am

The furniture item "Armorie" is not a place that you can store weapons and/or sheilds, (an Armory), so what is it?

It stores resources fine (I wont say how much), but to me the name implies its ability to store weapons. Is it possible for someone to tell me the difference between an Armorie, and an Armory.

If there is no differnce and it is indeed supposed to be this way, is it possible to change the name of this furniture item so other people do not have this expectation?

On a side bar;
Ultimately I'd love a place where I can store weapons (and/or tools) have access to them if I need them, but they wont deteriorate (or very lest slows the process). Saves the putting things in repair for 0 hours.

www.dictionary.com

ar·moire Audio pronunciation of "armoire" ( P ) Pronunciation Key (ärm-wär, ärmwär)
n.

A large, often ornate cabinet or wardrobe.



It does mention that they used to be used to store weapons, but at least until I read that I always figured it was just a fancy word for a wardrobe. Anyway there's nothing in the game that stores objects. (at least I don't think so...)

Yes, that's the meaning I always attributed to an amoire... they're just beautiful, some of them... And I can see why they're called amoire's because they used to house weapons...

There is an armoire nicely featured in the Soup Nazi episode of Seinfeld. :lol:

An Armorie is a Fancy Dresser like said here already. It is used to store clothing to my knowledge.

No soup for you!!!!



Sad thing is, I said that at school, and only 3 people in my class laughed: the teacher, Will, and Paul. Out of 26 students. :?
