Eowyn, she has the all inportant long range advantage. The bow, while not the best againt plate armor, if it's a long bow shooting bodkins, then it becomes an armor penatrating weapon with in a certain range. Even if it's not, she can still start hitting her oppoent before she even get's close enought to start attacking Eowyen. Eowyen also has the advantage of lighter armor which while offering less protection, means she's going to be wasting less energy during the fight, and still mail and leather offer's a great deal of protection agaisnt slashing and stabbing weapons, although the flail will still do damage. But the shield helps to off set this disadantage. A full suit of plate armor is increadably heavy and takes alot of strength to be able to function for an extended period of time with it on. Now is Eowyn fighting on foot or Horse back.
