A fact about heavy-armor bouts is they tend to last
more rounds, thus increasing the overall probability
of breaking/dropping a weapon (as well as
double/triple damage). I didn't include all of the
stats in the web page, but there were a lot of
interesting match-ups. 

I may turn the whole thing into an Applet, if I can
get over a few technical hurdles while keeping it simple.
