User blog comment:Leolab/User Siege Tourney, Round 20 of 75: Cfp3157 (Shengway) v Swg66 (Cadwalader)/@comment-422690-20130710183553

Attacker

Overrun Castle: Not likely. Shengway has a nice arsenal for an open field, but not for a siege.

Force Surrender: Not likely. Cadwalader's men have a high loyalty score, and on top of that he can't really do all that much to hurt them.

Single Combat: Likely loss. See below.

Defender

Annihilate Attackers: Possible. Those archers are going to do a lot of damage, as are those cannons.

Force Surrender: Likely. Shengway's men have a low loyalty score to begin with, and on top of that the early loss of that war elephant is going to be a huge blow to their morale. Combine that with the repeated burnings of their belfries, and you've got a force that wants to end the battle.

Survive: Likely. Shengway doesn't have the right arsenal for a siege, so Cadwalader can just sit tight for four months.

Single Combat: Likely win. See below.

Tie

Succeed and die: Not likely. Cadwalader's not likely to die, and Shengway's not likely to succeed.

Both die: Not likely. Cadwalader's not going anywhere.

Single Combat

Long Range: Well... they're the same weapon, but Cadwalader has more options that Shengway. Very narrow edge to Cadwalader.

Polearm: Poleaxe wins. It's got an axe, hammer, and spear tip all in one. Edge: Cadwalader.

Main/Off-hand: Cadwalader wins this one. Kenway's Steel Aspis is a formidable defense, but his gladius gives him a very short striking distance. Cadwalader's weapons leave him light on his feet, allowing him to dodge around and strike with his longer reach, nullifying the Aspis's defense.

Overall: Cadwalader wins single combat. He has a hybrid speed and power style, which very nicely counters Shengway's power only style.

Overall:

Attacker: 0

Defender: 4

Tie: 0

Cadwalader wins.
