Default Re: Unit matchups

Quote:
If you have units with giant strength, then weaker but longer weapons become more useful because they can do enough damage to actually be effective on repel. Which is why I prefer spear-armed giants to axe-armed ones.
IIRC this is wrong. Repel if succesfull deals 1 point of damage regardless of the strength of the guy carrying the weapon.

Edit: The main strenght of repel is that if succesfull it forces a morale check to see if the attacker actually carries through his attack or if he is intimidated by the longer weapon.
