The Ranged Armory is a structure in Black and White 2. After completing the tutorial lands, it is available in the Tribute Shop for 40,000 Tribute.
The Ranged Armory allows the player to create key parts to any good army, those being: Platoons of archers.
Placing this building, causes the player's alignment to shift slightly, more toward evil.
A Platoon can be created by dragging the red flag off of the top of the building, and placing it within a settlement's Influence.
However, if the player does not have enough men to form a Platoon, the flag cannot be selected, and if hovered over, produces a tooltip which reads "Not Enough Men".
Note, you can manually collect male or female villagers, and drop them on the platoon recruitment tent, to enlist them into the platoon.
Villagers can also enter the Ranged Armory and walk around on the ramparts. The purpose of this is unknown.
The game initially limits you to a maximum of 5 unique archer platoons [per Ranged Armory?], though the limit of male villagers per platoon is only determined by the population of males who are not disciples; retrospective to platoon formation, your main concern is the strain on your food supply, as it supports your armies.
Note that you can merge two separate archer platoons, by selecting the banner of one, and dropping it on top of another platoon's flag.
Building requirements:
The Ranged Armory has an Impressiveness of 100.
