Lumber

Lumber is harvested by lumberjacks and is processed in a lumber mill.

In RTS games

Lumber is one of the main resources in the Warcraft RTS games. It is harvested by worker units from trees. In Outland and underground maps, lumber can be harvested from large mushrooms.

Background

This section concerns content exclusive to Warcraft II: Tides of Darkness.

Harvested from the abundant forests that inhabit all but a few regions in the realm, the uses for lumber are nearly infinite. Once a tree has been felled and returned to the community, it is processed and made ready for use as lumber. Craftsman then use this material to build many different structures and ships, as well as certain weapons and machines of war. Lumber may also be used in the research and construction of strange new devices — or by those adept in the arcane arts to aid with their magical studies. ^{(W2Man #?)}
