In the Dark Age, a Villager with Loom is quite self-sufficient, beating a Scout Cavalry and tying with Militia, but it still loses to Eagle Scouts (10 HP remaining after combat). With Loom, however, a single Villager can even kill two wild animals if they do not attack at the same time and do not strike first. Without Loom, a single Villager (except Magyar Villagers) will lose to any wild animal if it strikes first.
