    Default Concerning AP attack

    In some unit infocards there is written "Can piece most of armors" or as I remember official unit preview "Can pierce some armor" or "Pierces all armor"

    Is there something about AP attack that one AP attack effects one type of armor but doesn't effect other types of armor? Or it applies to any armor?

    AP reduces the value of armor by 50 percent. An example: ff your shiny knight has 8 armor, AP will reduce that to 4 armor.
    Officer to a soldier who refuses to fight: There three types of soldiers who don't have to fight. They are called KIA, MIA and POW and you are not one of them.

    Yes I know that it halves the armor value. But the question was a bit diffrent. Do diffrent projectile types pierce diffrent armors or AP attack applies to any armor without exceptions?

    AP applies to all armor ratings, whether its lamellar, robes, or gothic plate.

    One more question:

    I'm let to know that some units has AP attack, but it's not mentioned in their infocards. Which ones?

    For example Dvor Cavalry uses axes in melee, do they have AP at close range? Is there any guide of AP attacks ?

    Use the search button for Faust. It is a guide made by Brandybarrel with all the units and their stats. It will give you also stats of secondary weapons.

    Yup, they have, but the unit cards only describe the primary arms IIRC... Their bows ain't AP, so they didn't bother writing stuff about their axes in the inforcards anyway...

    Thanks for directing me to FAUST. I've found some really useful info. But anyway, there is one symbol which is not explained anywhere. "APa" AP stands for armor piercing.. but what that "a" means? it's on units such as Janissary hvy inf and similiar.

    Thanks in advance.

    The a stands for AC4 meaning they have a anti cavalry bonus of 4. In the EDU they have an attribute spear_bonus_4 (EDU = export descr units). Normal spear units have an anti cav bonus of 8.
