    Default Re: Why haven't the +4 attack lt.spear attribute not been removed?

    Unless the guy who did all the EB EDU balancing is still active on the EB2 forum, my bet is, we will never know.

    One thing to ponder: if you flatly remove 4 attack from the elite spear units (spartan for example), they become noticeably weaker than sword elites.
    Also, most sword units in EB have either the ap attribute (curved swords: luso, pedites, thorakitai hoplitai, Hypas...), or 0.225 lethality (barbarians, maures: the longswords), and are far from underpowered, so it MIGHT be that the whole EDU was balanced with this light_spear thing, or not.

    Some say that tighter formations make up for the loss of lethality, not sure about it.
