Idunno, the Spartan shields in the movie were able to stop explosive fragments. 😖hifty:

It would not matter if they could stop the fragments with their shields or not 🙂

A part of the 300's defense were their skills in hand-to-hand combat and there would not be much of that against a bunch of cowboys, since it is quite tricky to fight a bullet of with a sword 😛

im pretty sure they stop at samuri, kitanas can easily cleave through 300s weapons shields... and costumes

They will get to the cowboys and stop there 🙂

The movie Samurai's appeared good but not near as good as the movie Spartan's appeared to be 😄

Of course for some reason I go from the point that the Spartan's got their little mountain passage to fight from 😛

Cowboys it is.

Damn straight 🪩

stoned

i see them stoping at no 4. 600 Legionnaires

roman legionnaires fight in a simillar manner as the spartants. they two use the same phalanx formation (spelling?)

they are also well trained soldiers. during the roman's reign as the supreme power, their armies were considered as the best. their soldiers were freared for their fighting skills and strategies.

if they were to fight in an open field, the spartants are going down...
if they stay in their mountain paths, the romans arent stupid as to just go dashing in..

Yeah, but this is the Spartans from the movie, who were badaaaaaaaasssssss..Plus, what other choice do the Romans have but to go str8 into the mouth of the Hot Gates? 😬
They dont know the terrain or the goat path that outflanks them.

Yeah, my bad I shouldve went into detail about all the weaponry for each, I just didnt feel like it lol. The Romans have their long spears, those hugeass shields, swords, they got archers and 10 chariots per 300 Legionnaires. No catapults or balistas.

awwww 🙁 ah well, and i'm guessing that the samurais get their standard katanas and, speers, bows and horses. hmmm...with this in mind, the spartans stop at the cowboys 😆

That only happens in the cartoons. It is much harder to cut through bronze than you think.

Have to agree.

There was a 3 page debate on Samurai versus Spartans in the History forum and it eventually concluded that while the Samurai MAY be more skilled then a Spartan in certain forms of sword-play, their inferior armour and useless sword style would give them the defeat.
