Can someone explain this? In a long game as Byzantines vs Franks during a Skirm war, the following happened:

Both E Skirms were FU

Byzantine E Skirm had a total attack of 7+4 (archer bonus)=11 and pierce armor of 4+4=8

Frank E Skirm had a total attack of 6+4(archer bonus) =10 and pierce armor of 4+2=6 (they don't get Ring armor)

So expectedly the Byzantine ESkirm was doing a net attack damage of 5 to the Frank ESkirm (11-6=5) but in return my ESkirm was taking an attack damage of 4 per hit - how was this possible? I was expecting it to take only 2 damage (10-8=2) but it was 4 damage per hit.

Can someone explain how this was possible?
