Veteran
I've got a full set of 12 companions armed with crude+ versions of the top tier non-special armour (veteran helm, mail coat, splinted greaves, hardened gloves) and equipped with 140 size shields and normal swords/rich swords.
Unfortunately we still lose to unrights when we defend villages and I've noticed even though they're pretty much naked they hit like a truck with those hand axes and have decent HP. They rush in and attack at point blank range and their attacks never whif. Swords on the other hand do have a minimum range, and they have a useless stab attack that almost always whifs and does barely any damage that is essentially a wasted attack for my companions.
Would I be better off switching them all over to hand axes? With their horses and the massive armour advantage they have they really should be wiping the floor with them, even without help from the farmers
