[Describe panel here]

From now on, we are taking a statistical approach to combat.

First, don't go for kills. Go for stabs. Successful stabs are much more valuable to victory than lethal strikes

See siegwurst over here? Everyone thinks he's our most valuable warrior because he killed three frenchman in each of the last ten battles

Now look at birk over here. He averages 20.1 stabs per battle

He alone accounts for an additional 3.8 wins per campaign season. Siegwurst brings in 1.6.

But remember when siegwurst slew two cossacks with his dance of the whirling blades?"

No more reading the sagas, okay? No spin moves of any kind! They're very impressive, but the expected additional wins per spin move is negative. Negative!

In this army, we care about one thing and that is stab percentage.

This is gonna have serious negative effects on morale.

Which correlates with exactly nothing now get stabby!
