Undead RVD's "FIve Star" Edges:

Short Range: The Mameluke sword is both longer and faster. Go to go with the saber with both reach AND speed.


 * EDGE: Mamalukes

Mid Range: The Marmeluke lance is much more durability but the Kopia has a greater reach. I would say they are even but once they are off the houses, the Kopia will suck. It is too long and heavy to use on foot. The Mamaluke lance is much more practical on foot.


 * EDGE: Mameluke

Long Range: The Crossbow is nice and powerful but on horseback, it is USELESS. The horse will be too shaky to aim properly and reloading will be impossible. The recurve bow, on the other hand, is much more accurate on horseback and can be reloaded quickly and easily on horseback. Simplicity and usefulness wins the day.


 * EDGE: Mameluke

Overall: I think I will go with the Mamelukes. Their weapons are faster and practical both on horseback and on foot. The Hussars' lance is useless on foot and the crossbow is useless on foot. I'm going with the much more versatile warriors.
 * VOTE: Mamelukes
