I was wondering how to get an ability to give bonus damage against only a ceertain type of armor. I really dont like the ability editor because you dont have all the option imo you get with the unit editor, It would be nice if i could get a blank slate with abilities so that I can see all the options.

What I want to do it give this polearm infantry more bonus dmg against cavalry since he has a glaive which was a medieval polearm simular to a naginata in that it had a sword blade, but it was fixed on the pole like an axe and on the back of the blade was a hook used to drag the rider off his steed

I think that all bonus damage you give to a unit automatically given as the damge type the unit has. EX: A hero takes up an item that adds plus 10 damage. Its automatically Hero damage, if given to a unit it would be normal damage and if given to a ranged unit it would be piercing.

But what I want is to make an ability give more damage against a certain type of armor so that when this unit attacks a unit with this armor, he gets more damage, but only against that armor type
