Re: Drapanai too strong.....

I couldn't help but gloat when I read the OP's account of his elites being butchered by my beloved Drapanai. Too strong? Nay, mate, for here is your chance to employ those otherwise useless Toxotai to good effect.
Truly, I wouldn't recommend sending any melee infantry into combat with Drapanai *unless* they can loose a few volleys of javelins prior to engaging in hand-to-hand. At that stage, however, most infantry will suffer heavy casualties, even if they ultimately prevail. The elites and higher-tier infantry base much of their defense on armor, which is halved by the Drapanai's AP ability. The levies and lower-tier infantry don't have much defense at all, and so the Drapanai's .26 lethality will certainly result in their slaughter.
