Repel is broken.

[Sombre]

Kind of an ironic thread from the poison arrow man. Hahah.

This has been discussed before. It's something about the mindless tag that seems to remove the -2 to each subsequent repel.

You're wrong that repel makes units with high att and long weapons invulnerable to units with shorter weapons though. They can still attack if they pass a morale check, they just have a chance of taking 1 damage.

Before anyone states unequivocally that a mechanic is broken they should probably run a few tests.
