Omnicube1's Cubeliest Edges

Close Range: Khopesh has longer reach and hacking power compared to the Dagger, Edge: Mamluk

Mid Range: Since these warriors are mounted the lance will be a far superior weapon since, combined with the speed of a horse, it has great stabbing power and range. The scimitar can get nowhere close enough to at least cut some flesh or even the Mamluk's clothes, Edge: Mamluk

Long Range: The sling is very inaccurate. Throwing axes are more precise and can be used has short range weapons, Edge: Hetman

Special Weapons: Of course metal shields are defensive compared to a leather one plus the shields of the cossacks were small and lightweight so it would be more mobile also. The Yataghan has greater length compared to the dagger, Edge: Hetman

The Deadliest Warrior: Mamluk Slave Cavalry, the Hetman would be victors in this battle easily if their mid-range weapon was not a scimitar. Their main downfall is the Mamluk's utilization of the lance.
