i think you have to remember that in talking about adding new units yer now in the realm of 'expansion pack' and we can no longer just 'balance the game' against what we currently have. we also have to balance with what's coming. and also bearing in mind the paper, rock, scissors nature of the game, you'll have more to consider with the coming expansion pack.

it would seem to me that someone wielding 2 swords would be more susceptible to missle fire, be it guns or arrows, but i dont really know the historical reality of this.
