Eiyu Senki makes no damn sense

Knuckle damage is strong against every weapon type except Sword. Because when someone is running at you with an axe, the best course of action is to punch them.

Axes are strong against Swords. But in Fire Emblem, Swords are strong against Axes. What’s the truth?

Anything with a short blade and less reach than a throwing knife does Knuckle damage. This includes a spiked parasol, which really seems more like it should do Spear damage. Also, throwing knives can do Knuckle damage instead of Throwing damage, but only with a special throw that has less range than a regular throw.

If you don’t want to do Cannon damage, you can pick up a cannonball and throw it for Throwing damage.

I will admit that last one is awesome.

I've been told that axes are strong against every melee weapon in real life, but that obviously wouldn't balance in a video game. (And also I'm not actually confident it's true.)
