"bonus hit-points attribute I see in the files" was attributing this to CA, my error I was unclear in my statement. If my grammatical formatting is problematic I will use Morse Code in any future posts.
Spear wall, Phalanx etc very effective in my battles. 30 minute plus battles are the norm. Increasing armour bonus vs arrows in the table would render arrows less effective but have no effect on shields as the shield table lacks a versus arrows column, that would have been the simple fix making Testudos act as Pliny described them. Unfortunately arrows in this version seem to be coded as their much deadlier Bodkins or Needle Bodkins from the 1300's.
