Edges

Short Range: The Norman broad Sword is superior in this particular match. The Slicing motion of the Tulwar Saber is less effective against mail armor than the straight Norman sword, which delivers more blunt force energy into the target. Addtionally the strain blade makes it a superior thrusting weapon and against light Indian or Aaian mail, this is a huge advantage. Edge:Huskarl

Mid Range the Axe gets the edge for a number of reasons. For starters the Axe is far superior against the armor of the Mughal than the spear will be against the armor of Huskarl. Saxon mail stops spears thrusts as well as cutting and slicing, the spear will have a difficult time getting any hits in. the Axe doesn't need to actually break the Mughal armor to kill him, the blunt force power will do enough damage to get the kill. Add the fact that Axe is nealy 2 feet longer, the reach of the Saxon will overwhelm the spear. Edge:Huskarl

Long Range. The bow has superior range, but is not properly suited to 1 on 1 combat. The bow is a far better weapon to the throwing spear in an army vs army situation, but in 1 on 1, it s actually inferior to a spear. The spear only needs one hand to use, so the Huskarl can defend himself with his shield while using, and the size of the Saxon sheild means that the Mughal won't be able to hit him, additionally the spear can be used in close combat if need be, the bow can not. Then ass the fact that Indian Mail is vulnerable to thrusting weapon and Saxon armor can stop arrows, the edge goes to the spear.Edge:Huskarl

Armor:The Hukarl mail armor is superior to the light Indian style mail of the Mughal. Mail made in India was generally light weight and not well suited for stooping the stabbing weapons. The Saxon also brings weapons like the axe and his sword which deliver blunt force damage, something which mail doesn't stop. The Mughal does have some plates, but they don't offer enough coverage to compensate for the short comings of his mail Edge:Hukarl

Winner:Hukarl THe Hukarl wins this match because, his armor an weapons and much better suited for kill the the Mughal, than the other way around. While all the Saxons weapons will work well against the Mughal, The Mughal lacks weapons that will work extreml;y well against the Saxon armor, and lacks armor that will effectively stop the Hukarl weapons.
