User blog comment:Gabool the Wild/The Idoicy of the Boxing Hare/@comment-1630956-20100616145818

Gabool, therin lies the problem in your thinking. The times boxing hares appeared, it wasn't the middle ages. Most of the time, even in the gigantic hordes, the vermin are poorly armed, and most have little or no armor. It's not like they're decked out in platemail or chainmail. Their weapons seemed mostly poor as well. As for fighting axes and warhammers, as soon as your enemy swings, they are left open from you to dart in and deal any blow you want. If you are able to dodge the first strike, you have your foe completely undefended.
