In the game's words
How to use it
The Club Warrior is an inexpensive Lakota hand infantry unit with decent hitpoints and damage, but no range. This infantry unit does all its damage in melee combat. Club Warriors are best fielded against cavalry or buildings. They are inexpensive to train, cost no Coin, and may be trained in the Commerce Age. You can upgrade Club Warriors to Elite and Champion.
History
The Lakota constructed their war clubs out of a variety of substances: stone, wood, bone, antlers, horn, and sometimes incorporated steel blades. The one consistent feature was an efficacy in combat. One blow from one of these deadly weapons could cripple or kill a grizzly bear, let alone a human opponent.

How this is worked out
Each hit: damage × every multiplier that matches the target's types × (1 − the target's resist to that damage). Two ranged units trade shots; against a melee-only unit the better of ranged and melee is used. Damage per second = hit ÷ seconds between attacks.
Armies bought with the same resources fight by Lanchester's square law: strength = (resources ÷ unit cost)² × damage per second × hit points. The edge is the square root of the strength ratio. All matchups.
