Re: Unit Spreadsheet
Jotun has level 3 priests, so they can cast sermon of courage. But what Arryn says is true - protection does not scale like other stats, which means the change in strength is huge.

So. A hirdman does an average of 15 damage per hit, and takes around 2.5 damage per hit. And 90% of the time he beats 4 of the heaviest independant infantry, assuming nobody routs. It takes 6 HI to usually beat the Hirdman, which is 60 gold, 120 resources, and 6 supply versus 40 gold, 34 resources, and 3 supply.
Morale is a terrible problem with Jotun militia - they always rout when they could actually win. But the jotun elites, backed by Godes, do quite well.

P.S. Note that the Hirdman is bugged - he's supposed to wear Chain, like the other heavy Jotun units.
