haha no no, I was not talking about cavalry charging, I was talking about spearmen concerning the ready thing, because spearmen were no better in combat with cavalry than swordmen (maybe even worse if the cavalry use their sword and not their spear once stuck in) unless the spearmen (as explained in STW game manual ) are in formation and pointing their spear (yari for samurais) toward the cavalry

I can understand why charging cavalry have the AP attribute and that why I did not remove it from them but I did remove it for their sword. Also, slingers' knifes had the AP attribute, was that an error ?

So if anyone has answers to my question, it would be greatly appreciated

Certain swords are more effective against armor because of their shape...like the falx

What slingers have AP knives? I looked and haven't found any...

I recall a post by a developer stating that a spearman can "revert" the charge bonus upon the cavalryman when they are "ready" (standing still, with the weapons pointed at the enemy) and facing the cavalrymen.
