Okay, now for the weather...

in long range, for me there is really no contest. The ball and chain sucks. It can't hit the broad side of a barn and has really no close combat value either. The crossbow may have a slow realod, but it's faster, more accurate and you've got multiple bolts compared to the one ball and chain.

For medium range, it's tough. The claymore is wicked, but it's armor penetration ability is ahuge factor, and it can't really penetrate the knight's armor, but the halberd is going to destroy the highlander.

In close, my vote is with the broadsword. It has greater reach and a lot more killing surface. While the war hammer is awesome and can penetrate the plate, I don't think that a highlander will really gett the chance to use it.

Next, we have special. The Morning star is so close to taking this one, but it is a purely offensive weapon. For the sheer killing ability and defensive ability of the targe, i'm going to give it to the targe. The dirk is just a little bonus.

Edge: Highlander

Armor. The French knight may not be as mobile, but he's going to have a lot more protection from the highlander's weapons.

Edge: French knight

Honestly, this battle is sort of a wash. while the highlanders were able to drive the english knights away on a larger sacle, in a one on one fight, the French Knights are going to take this fight.
