  1. NOTE:
  2.  
  3. I run the one hundred fights of each set all the same time, I count the survivors after each battle is finished, this is much faster than doing it one by one, but the problem with this is that most of the time, while I wait for all the battles to finish, most of the time one or several of the survivors will succumb to their wounds after winning their fights, because of this, the numbers of survivors doesn't reach 100 sometimes.

  137. OBSERVATIONS

  139. Looking at the first three sets, it doesn't seem like any of the weapons have an advantage, this makes sense, any hit can be a lethal/disabling hit in a fight without armor, the choice of weapon doesn't really matter much. As for the other three sets, well, in set 4 and 5 the results are similar, both weapons perform equally, doesn't seem like one of them has an advantage, but then, looking at set 6, I'm not so sure, in that set the humans with the battle axes won the first two times the test it was repeated, at first I thought this meant that axes do have an advantage when used by someone with very high weapon skill, but the third time it was repeated, the humans with the short swords won, a very close victory, but a victory nonetheless. Now I'm not sure if to say that short swords and axes are equal or that axes have a certain advantage in fights where both opponents are highly skilled and wearing armor. Well, I think next I should test these weapons against larger creatures and compare their performances to see if one is better than the others.
