So i've done about an hour or so overview on halberdiers and I really don't see the point of it beside that extra 1 or 2 iron flesh and the shielding (but a commando is going to shield anyway) over a marauder.
I've looked at all the armours available and really, all you get is +4 body armour by going halberdier which is suppost to be the unit with better and heavier armours (like a commando, but using polearms), however this is not much, leaving you at a maximum of 64 Body Armour (Master halb armour (58) + Ornate Hourglass Gauntlets (6)) compared to a regular pikeman/MP/Marauder at 60 Body Armour.
My proposal is to give Halberdiers access to Studded Gauntlets as it also looks brilliant with almost every armour combination with halberdier, it would also boost the maximum armour value up from 64 to 72, which is equivalant to trans (Without Gloves give or take 1 point) which seems fair IMO.
What do you guys think?
