 The cost of a military building includes and element to pay for troops.  All Military buildings have light footmen.  Buildings with +3 defence (or more) may have upgraded troops as well.  \\ See [[pathfinder:off-the-shelf:military:start|This Page]] for full descriptions of troops, their equipment and officers.
-  * **Light Foot** - All military building come with units of Light Infantry.  A unit consists of 10 troops and is made up of Warriors  of levels 2-4 with an average attack bonus of 4. In broad terms it doesn't matter if they are  Skirmishers, Guards, X -Bowmen or the like, nor what weapons and armour they have - they all count for one Defensive Point.  If you want to flavour your troops, you can give them any light armour or any simple weapons.  My 'standard' light foot will probably be Spear-men or Crossbow-men in studded leather.  Light-Foot are probably those soldiers who serve for 5/6/7/ years and then go off to do something else. \\   [[pathfinder:off-the-shelf:military:light_foot|Light Foot]]

-   * **Marines** - //marines are always an upgrade//.  marines are light foot who are used to fighting on boats and ships. It costs 1 BP  to upgrade a Military Building to  host marines.  This purchases two fishing boats (used as patrol boats)  and allows you to defend you water borders more effectively.  It adds +2 Local Defence points that count in the defence of a city or stronghold,  but do not add to your overall army for the Mass Combat rules nor count towards your noble status. \\ [[pathfinder:off-the-shelf:military:light_foot#marines |Marines]]

When you  give them your own flavour you can give them Medium Armour and any Simple or Martial  weapon.   My standard veterans are wear Scalemail, and carry halberds.  It costs 1 BP to upgrade a Military Building to  host veteran troops, due to the cost of the armour and higher pay, but the building gains +1 Defence. \\ [[pathfinder:off-the-shelf:military:light_foot#veterans|Veterans]]

 Not all troops will be in the same building - a Lt-Commander in charge of a Keep, may well be in command of the barracks (and its Lt) in a neighbouring town.  That Lt might well oversee watch-towers in two nearby villages.  That is how your military structure builds up :)
