Noob question: In game description, must it say Effective Against Armour to be considered AP or can a unit have AP even if description does not state Effective Against Armour?

EDIT: And if it must state so, then is that statement for the Primary weapon's AP attribute? (i.e. if secondary is AP but not primary weapon, then would it not state Effective Against Armour even though the secondary has AP?) Sorry if questions are unclear.

It is not necessarily displayed. But you can find it out either by looking at the EDU or simply by looking at the soldier. Every axe, mace, club, falx, two-handed sword, kopis/falcata or underhand cavalry lance in EB is AP. Dito for soliferra, pila, elephant tusks and slingstones.

Thanks a bunch. I figured the realistic assumptions would work most of the time.
