Is Bonus Vs Large added to Melee Attack?
I'm looking at Chosen (Halberds), the Bonus vs Large icon reads "This unit inflicts additional damage and has an additional chance of hitting units of cavalry-size and larger." And his Damage says it does "Bonus vs Large: 26."

Does that mean he gets 26 added to his Melee Attack for Large units, or is it a different calculation to Melee Attack like 10% bonus or base +10?

Thanks in advance!

It's a straight up + to MA and DMG I believe.

iirc, you can hover over the icon in the unit card and it should tell you what it does. +melee attack and +damage against large foes

BvI or BvL adds that bonus to both melee attack and weapon strength (with the strength bonus retainig the same ratio of base/AP dmg)

+ X against Large or + X against infantry is a straight up + X MA vs that target type as well as +X damage per hit against that target type.

for the +X damage part, the % AP will be the same as the base % AP of the unit, so if a unit has 75% of its damage as AP by default, for a +28 vs Large it'll be (+ 28 MA, + 21 AP damage and +7 base damage ) vs Large.

Oh okay, I wasn't sure since it only said 'additional chance of hitting' but didn't know it was full amount. These guys crush, like almost 79 Melee attack vs Large, just yikes.
