Re: (TFT) To defend or not defend vs pole charge?

[Robert Ward <rob@dolwen.com>]

Nice -- defending gives the morningstar 50% more victories. I wanted to
try morningstar against pikeaxe, to get a feel for how defending played
out when the chance of the pole-weapon hitting was much smaller (but the
effects of damage much greater). I tried to run the simulator, but got
errors in both Safari and Chrome, relating to the java version
(unsupported major.minor version 51.0, if any value).
