Large races fight test

NOTE:

In this test I removed the natural skills that minotaurs to compare them better to the other races, since they don't have any natural skills.

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.

I didn't repeat tests that already did, for example, I didn't do the Troll vs Minotaur test since I already did the Minotaur vs Troll test. Also, When I was preparing to do the the Yeti vs Sasquatch test, I took a look at the raws of both of them and I realized that, physically, they're pretty much the same, same size, same body parts, same attributes, same attacks, etc. So I decided to not do that test since it's pointless.

RESULTS

Trolls lost in all sets

Well, this doesn't leave much room for doubt, minotaurs seem to be better, I think the reason for this must be the superior attributes of the minotaurs, trolls might be slightly bigger, but they have normal attributes, while the minotaurs have above average in many attributes important for combat, such as strength, toughness, agility, endurance, they also have an extremely high spatial sense (2250). One thing I did notice is that in sets where both combatants had high skills, the minotaur didn't do as well as the ones where they both didn't have any skill, I think skill acts as a kind of equalizer, when both combatants have high skills, the advantage attributes give is lessened. But even then, minotaurs are clearly the better fighters.

Like the previous test, the minotaurs seem to be the better fighters, and again, I think for the same reasons as the previous test, superior attributes, and, also like the previous test, I skills also act here as an equalizer, so much in fact that the yetis actually managed to win set 6, even though it was a really close victory and the minotaurs might win if that test is repeated, but still, you can clearly see that with higher skills the advantage that superior attributes give are lessened. I've noticed this affects the sets where there are no weapons more than the sets where there are weapons though, this is also true in the previous test.

Same observations as the last test, the sasquatch were very close to winning in set 3 and 6. Nothing to note otherwise, makes sense since Yetis and Sasquatch are pretty much the same.

Yeti victory in set 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 10, 11, 16, 18. 10 in total

Ok, seems like in this test yetis did better in fights without weapons, winning them all, makes sense, they're bigger than trolls so they hit harder, in weapon tests, yetis won several of them, but they were close victories, trolls also won several of them, and they did especially well in fights where both combatants had very high skill, with the exception of set 18, but that was a really close win for the yetis and it's very likely that, if repeated, the trolls might win instead. I guess this is because weapons act as an equalizer here, even, a small creature can hurt a large one badly if it has a weapon, this makes the difference in size not that important, I think high skills also takes a part in this. Overall, yetis seem to be better in unarmed fighting, in fights with weapons trolls and yetis seems more or less equal, except when they both have high skills, in that case trolls perform better than yetis.

Though, if I think about it, why do the trolls do better in fights with weapons? Their attributes are the same, and yetis are bigger than trolls so they should hit harder and do more damage, is it pure coincidence and trolls don't actually perform better? Is it that yetis prioritize other attacks such as biting or punching instead of using their weapons? I have no idea.

The results of the first six sets are similar to the previous one, but the sasquatch also managed to win more sets where weapons are used, they even won in set 12, where both fighters have high weapon skill, though it was a close victory. I think this just means that in sets with weapons trolls and sasquatch have more or less equal chance to win, it can go either way, with the exception of sets with weapons and very high skill, where trolls seem to do better, even though this time they didn't win set 12, so this might not actually be true, as I said in the in the observations of the previous test, I'm not sure if trolls don't actually perform better in those sets and it's just coincidence or if it's something else. Overall it seems that Sasquatch are the better fighters since it's very likely that they will win fights without weapons most of the time.

FINAL RESULTS

So, looking at the results, minotaurs seem to be best fighters, while I?m not sure about yetis/sasquatch and trolls, I'd say that yetis/sasquatch are better than trolls generally speaking, but trolls seem to have an equal chance of winning in fights with weapons, and seem to even perform better if both fighters have very high skills, but I'm not sure if this is just coincidence or not.

This makes me think that a set just once is not enough, it should be repeated atleast twice or thrice, to make sure the results are not just coincidence. It would be a good idea to repeat this test and the others, even though it's gonna take a while.
