Ettin Error
 

I was recently creating thugs and SCs and testing them, and I tried the Ettin as a chassis. They have an unusual number of slots, (including two headslots), so I figured that they'd make a pretty good one. I equipped them with powerful twohanded weapons and a nice shield and set them loose for my first two combos. Most won a minor skirmish or two, then got in a major battle. Long story short, according to the battle movie, they dominated their respective battles, but according to the report, they died horribly after causing a ridiculously low number of casualties (21 chaff)- especially considering that one was carrying the arena trident and the aegis for damage, as well as some nice defensive items.

Were you using a mod at all?

Nope. Just vanilla. Would wielding a two handed weapon witha shield do that?

Most likely not.

It's the "battle inconsistency" bug that sometimes creeps up, especially in MP games when server and client use different patch level or OS. Seemingly it sometimes happens in SP as well - would be nice if you could provide the devs with a savegame and log file.
