A kopis is more like an axe that can also be used to stab somebody. The in-curving design increases the surface area of the blade, allowing for a better draw cut, and the weighting towards the end gives the thing a bigger wallop. So the weapon does hit hard, but it can't move aside defenses like a falx can, and it certainly can't get past armor. Frankly, the archers weren't even trained properly in the weapons' use, if we are to take Herodotus for his word on the issue.
I'd consider AP for the Rhomphaias, but for the Lugians and Kluddargos I'm going to increase lethality.
