User blog comment:The Deadliest Warrior/Joan of Arc vs. Boadicea/@comment-181289-20100930015126

Boadicea, for several reason, a long bow has a higher rate of fire. The throwing axe gives you options of either throwing it or keeping it in hand to hand. The Lancea I think would have the advantage over a pike it terms of damage done tot he opponent. The War hammer is a more devestating weapon but swords are more veratile. A Chariot give you the option of fireing from a mobile platform, a Frech cross bow can't be shot from horse back.
