Woodcutter as seen in Stronghold Crusader HD Manual
The Woodcutter is a civilian unit who runs Wood Camp/Woodcutter's Hut/Saw Pit.
Description[]
Woodcutters will gather up woods, one of important resources in the game, by cutting down trees not far from the their respective Wood Camp/Woodcutter's Hut/Saw Pit. Once enough woods are gathered in Wood Camp/Woodcutter's Hut/Saw Pit, they will bring gathered woods to the Stockpile thus allow you to expand your castle.
Woodcutters, unlike most civilian units, are actually capable of fighting. While not controllable they will attack any enemy in their close proximity. They are about as strong as a spearman (in 1 vs 1 they will actually win) and pose a small thread against careless archers. Due to their low number they usually do not matter however they can and will hinder slave attacks.
