User blog comment:Leolab/User Siege Tourney, Round 1 of 91: Leolab vs Utter Noob/@comment-4844014-20130304210052

Weapons

 * Long Range - Leo has this one. The recurve bow is a very light, simple design, it can be easily repaired and it's packing a serious stopping power for armour peircing arrows, putting most plates to shame, and if the arrow dosen't kill them, the poison will.
 * Pole Arm -  Leo again.  I think this win for Leo is primarily because of the usage of the Pilum and Utter's intelligence x-factor. Without a proper education, and not much description of tri*aning, it's likely Utter would miss judge the distance to through the pillum and if it's thrown, it's gone. Atleast Leo has a better chance on keeping his.
 * Main Hand -  Leo, AGAIN. The design of the Talwar is going to do Leo a massive favour here. It's got a longer blade and has a much better aerodyanmic design by being curved meaning that swinging and slicing it's perfect for Leo vs. the small bladed Gladius.
 * Off Hand - Take a guess? Starts with a L. The Scutum is a heavy design for open warfare where the box tactic is used like portable cover. This heavy design for a girl isn't going to go well here since it's hardly touched on for her physical ability and her lack of intelligence won't go well here either. Leo's got the brains, better physical capability naturally and a smaller, lighter weapon.

X-factors

 *  Utter (Celina) 
 * Mental Health: 65-70  - Celina's spent her whole life swearing revenge and as a child, witnessed the destruction and slaughtering of her village. She won't exactly be in the best shape to fight as she prioritises gaining revenge above all else and that will make her a mentally unfit.
 * Intellegence: 60  - Intelligence is a big issue for Celina, she was a girl in these Roman times and as a result, was very likely not educated in basics like reading or writing. Aswell as this, she hasn't had much experience from sounds of it and overall, her aimless desire is for revenge, likely making any of her choices more about her goal than her troops and this will pay a big consequence of her.
 * Loyalty: 55-60  - Loyalty is another problem for Celina. Aside from the fact that there is little informations to be understood about troop loyalty for her, her lack in intelligence and determination for Revenge will inflict her tactics and commands, making them poor and costly, likely causing her troops to doubt her leading capabilities and some will probably flee the battle for fear that their leader will get them killed.
 * Leo (Lloyd)


 * Mental Health: 85-90  - Lloyd's mental health seems to one that is very good, this is primarily because he appears to have never had a record of negative mental problems or issues, and with his few defeats, he will not develop boundaries hindering him in battle.
 * Intellegence: 85-90  - Lloyd seems to have grown up a military raised life where his mind and understanding of the aspects of war have pulled through for him many times, as demonstrated by his 'far and few' defeats.
 * Loyalty: 75-80  - Loyalty is a section where Lloyd's reputation will be put to the test. As he is a drifiting general for hire, he is likely famed and well known, but dependant on his reputation, his warriors may fight along side him for a long period of time, and some will likely be arrogant due to the fact he is their leader. While only a select few will dispurse, this will not be many and his reputation and skill should pull through for him.
 * Overall


 * I am saying Leo on the X-factors. Celina's Mental Health is pretty nasty because of her childhood trauma as she watched her village and family slaughtered and her revenge urges won't help her mentally, mean while Leo's mental health is pretty clean with his experience and endurance. Leo has also likely recieved educaton and has grown up on the a military background which Utter is lacking and it's unlikely Utter even knows how to read and write because she was a girl in Roman times. The icing on the cake for this one is the loyalty of the troops. Leo's reputation is a famed one and his experience will likely bring him victory here with his confident troops, meanwhile I predict desertions into Utter's forces as she is aimed at revenge and her lack in intelligence will likely deter her troops. Overall Leo's got the X-factors here.

Will be finished.
