    Default 2 quick RTW questions:

    First: what effect does Warcry actually have?

    Second: what is the bonus granted by "armor piercing" weapons (ie axes, javelins)? Is it the same formula as it was for MTW? It seems to me it's something else.

    I've tried searching the forums, and I haven't come up with an answer, but I'm certain someone's figured these out by now.

    Cheers

    First: Warcry is believed to add +4 to the attack and add to the charge bonus.

    Second: These units have an attack bonus when fighting heavily armoured opponents.

    Right, I knew that. But what's the bonus?

    Thanks for the other answer though.

    I don't know what the bonus is, but it's likely to add to attack, and possibly charge.

    If you have 2 units that have the warcry ability, and one is in combat, will it get a bonus if the other one does a warcry? Or does that bonus apply only to that particular unit?

    Anyone know how long the warcry effect lasts?

    I think the attack bonuses apply to the single unit. But there could be a morale bonus for surrounding units.

    Warcry lasts about 40 seconds, I think (don't quote me).

    Weapons with armor piercing on them halve the victim's armor rating, it is explaibned at the top of the export_descr_unit file iirc.
