User blog comment:Richard Starkey/Blackpowder Conquerors User tourney Round 1: Thornclaw Braveheart Vs. Lasmoore/@comment-422690-20110913014912

Close range: Warhammer wins. Despite the shorter reach, it has better penetrating power. Plus, it can be used as a one-handed Edge: TB

Mid range: Draw. Zweihander vs Zweihander ... Edge: Even.

Long range: Arquebus wins. The Volley Musket is a spray - and - pray, while the Arquebus is more accurate. Plus, volley muskets have a tendency to injure the user. Edge: Las

Special: I've stopped caring now. On to the fun part:

Torture: TB wins. Tearing someone in two, no matter how painful, will not get them to tell you what they want. It's more of a painful execution method than torture. Even if castration only works once, it's a better method.

Winner: TB, for better weapons and armor.
