+There are three types of damage: `Hack, Pierce and Crush`.[[BR]]
+(1) `Hack` damage is usually inflicted in close combat by infantry or cavalry units.[[BR]]
+(2) `Pierce` damage is dealt by ranged units, either infantry archers or skirmishers or even special siege units such as bolt shooters.[[BR]]
+(3) `Crush` damage is caused by siege units such as catapults or rams.[[BR]]
+
+The combat system works by matching the attack type with the resistance type.
+In the image below, the `Gallic Mercenary Cavalry` has `6.5 Hack` attack and the `Athenian Hoplite` has a `5 Hack` resitance level. The value in brackets is the effective resitance percentage and calculated like this: 1-0.9^resitance level^ (1-0.9^5^ = 41%). Attack damage and resistance levels can be modified through technology upgrades and auras.
