Overpowered peasants and the Spear attribute.

[CeltiberoMordred]

From the EDU file:

Spears have 0.6 lethality.

Swords have 1 lethality.

So think about two units, both with same stats but one armed with sword and another with a spear. Spear without "spear atribute" of course.

The sword will perform 66% better than the spear. Vs every enemy.

I don't know how much is the "spear" atribute penalization, but it looks to me redundant. Or maybe what is redundant is different lethalities for each weapon (which make "attack" stats meaningless).

Sorry , was so tired I didn't notice your post until after I had posted . You say some of what I did .

To elaborate on the same point , in RTW , spears had 0.87 as this stat {again though , in RTW 1 was the highest value , now apparantly higher values are applicable , and it *might* function a little different too , though judgeing on spear verses sword performance , I think the mechanic is still the same .

Come the unpacker , I'm going to fetch me my modding hat :D
