# Tools

For your [squads](/game-mechanics/squads.md) to execute tasks, they require tools. However, these tools wear out over time, necessitating constant replacement using materials like stone and wood. Running out of tools means your squads can't perform [basic actions](/game-mechanics/squads/commands.md) like chopping trees, leading to a standstill in production. Keeping a steady supply of tools is vital to maintain continuous productivity and progress.
