Has anyone run numbers/tests on broad sword and shield vs bastard sword and shield?
Broad sword doesn’t have one handed penalty, bastard has 10 xyz(10%? 10 skill points?) penalty.

Bastard has higher damage values.

Anyone ran testing scenarios on them?

If opponent doesn’t have ranged weapons... bastard has higher potential. But if Shield skill is high enough, tiring out/fatiguing opposition might be viable with shield. Any numbers?

Any breakdowns on two handed bastard parrying/counter attacking vs broad sword and shield blocking and counterattacking?

And then. Any numbers on battle sword vs bastard sword with shield vs broad sword with shield.

Also, not under this subject, but similar interest: Battle axe vs Woodman’s axe vs hand axe and shield.

None?
Guess I’ll have to do some testing then.
