Actually, the word "puissant" does exist in english, but it's very old and not used much anymore. It means "powerful, mighty, having authority".

See wiktionary entry here

But back on topic!

Somebody did a detailed analysis of Velites vs. Javelinmen vs. Skirmishers about a year ago, maybe longer. Hmmm.
