A question on mounted defense

[Wodan]

It's also a 'hammer'. I generally like antiquated words, but not when there is more than one antequated meaning for the antquated word.

I like "hammer" better than 'penalty' for when I say 'malus', so that's the only one that I'll perpetuate.

Actually, ever since the last winter Olympics, I've been fond of saying "She has the Hammer, to use a Curling term."

Technicaly (in real world), armor CAN hide in buildings and armors can fortify (dig). But I understand that they need disadvantage in game (otherwise infantry would not be used if mounted was available (and enough time was available)).
