Do warriors musket* impact foot/swords, count as shot armed troops against armoured opponents.

Yes got the army but was not sure since they had swords would they still get the plus against armour.

[daveallen]

It's not a + against armour.

A better armoured opponent doesn't get a + (for better armour) in melee against Shot.

I think we both knew what you meant, just being a little pedantic...

So musket* swordsmen against unsteady armoured pike are a POA up. Counting as shot AND swordsmen?

Don't have the rules in front of me, and haven't played in a while so memory definitely may be faulty here, but I believe that you are correct. Pike would not bet better armor plus because facing shot, and sword woudl get a plus against unsteady pike.

Except if the pike are four deep, of course. Then they would be =.
