End-to-end authoring of a culture's visible-in-game armor + troops + recruitment. Read the authoritative guide first: docs/ai-includes/new-culture-authoring.md. This skill is the entry point + checklist; the guide has the full per-phase detail (modeled on the Dale session, ~11 commits).
.tpac armor pack to wire in, ORIf creating a net-new taom_spcultures.xml Culture object, read docs/cultures.md FIRST (the ~80 culture attributes + 16 NPC files). This flow picks up after the culture definition exists.
.tpac files exist; decide culture ID (custom vs XSLT-passthrough โ check kingdom-culture-mapping.md memory); decide tier cap; pick 3โ4 Tolkien lore citations.tools/tpac_skeleton_scan.py --all-types) โ clone tools/generate_dale_armor.py โ emit XML โ register the <culture>/ folder in LOTRLOME_Armory/SubModule.xml.troops_<culture>.xml โ register in Main/_Module/SubModule.xml.spcultures.xslt (every CultureObject template/troop attr), taom_partyTemplates.xml (9 templates), VolunteerRecruitmentService.cs (culture + optional settlement/clan pools), add tests.python tools/validate_all_troop_refs.py (underwear-bug gate), then /ship.chivlary/infrantry).LOTRLOME_items/*/ for the item prefix before authoring; first folder with that prefix wins (CLAUDE.md per-prefix table).
