samurais are definitly the most badass ever.

thanks
i love it too
they look like darth vader from star wars
cool

...

Rus' battle armor 13-15 century.

>ancient
Samurais are at most old-medieval m9

...

Samurai fucking sucks
They are like retard of all warriors
If we can even call them warriors because they are literally tatar tier.
Why tatar? Because samurais were HORSE ARCHERS and not real warriors they never even used their katanas in battles because it was shit.
If they start meele combat they fought with spears and naginatas and not with sword.
A fucking roman legionist would kick salant asians little ass of samurai with a fucking GLADIUS.

you need to go further in time?

Samurais looks nice 2bh, but you know, armor that was made of pressed paper and leather can't defend you in non-arrow (real) battle.

You can't fight weapons coated with Dart frog poison.

...

Like this ;-)

We wuz saxons and shieet

My antecesor

Some sources say our system of government was influenced by that of the Iroquois Confederacy, which dwelt in the lands south of the Great Lakes. We got along pretty well with them until we got triggered by their refusal to help us in the Revolution (they wanted to just stay out of it and not get involved).

...

WE

Most of the Iroquois were always allied with the British. Initially they tried neutrality during the American war of Independence, but weren't long in siding with the Brits again.

You said ancient then posted a samurai, but I guess you mean any old warrior type.

Caroleans were probably the most efficent soldiers in Europe during their hayday. Too bad there were so few of them. Karl XI is grossly underrated, especially compared to his father and his son with 20-20 hindsight.

Heyday*

I am Greek

hold up, hold up
*bakes a pastry*
so what you are saying implies
*fucks a pig and sells the video to a german*
that we
*gets drunk and gives oil rich waters to n*rwegians*
are descendants of seafaring warriors?

...

...

looks muslim

...

It was basically influenced by muslims cuz their armor was top tier back in 13 cent

...

Only the one on the left is typically Anglo-Saxon, the one on the right has a helmet more typical of the Vendel period in Sweden.

>instead of this colourful stuff with cool ass patterns we get leather-clad medieval bikers on TV
Thanks, Vikings.

the other way around dumbo, darth vader was modeled after the samurais

;^(

...

That kind of helmet is the coolest shit. The lack of a clear neck and facial features beyond the eyes makes the soldier come off as much more inhuman.

bravo england

Fact: warriors who wore garish displays weren't real warriors and rarely, if ever, had to fight for their lives

Seeming inhuman isn't really a good thing for a soldier though (in general), your enemy is much more likely to hesitate even for a second if they feel like they're killing a human being/someone they can empathize with

MUH

yeah no
soldiers will be made to see enemy as inhumane anyway, so much so it will stick to next generation

you should know given your history with the blyadlands

Not our fault - most of the soldiers had no experience, nor any training, nor any knowledge of that area. The Japanese on the other hand knew the entire Malay peninsula inside out. Also, the Japanese had an intelligence network by which they gained first-hand knowledge of the Allied positions. Many Japanese spies slipped into Singapore as civilians, from where they reported back on all the Allied fortifications. Couldn't do much about that

>tldr: we din do nuffins :DDDD

What is that big paintbrush mace pike thing anyways? Looks intimidating though.

My ancestors :)

Now those were some battle-tested warriors.

May not have had the greatest scientific or literary achievements, but they knew how to kill, pillage, and rape.

...

It wasn't our fault we handled it horribly?

...

...

>dude stop fucking smiling like that
>I said sto- see now their not charging us anymore
>i hope you enjoy ruining this melee John francias englander

Depends on what you consider ancient.

Then we became auxiliaries for the Romans. Cavalry, usually.

>wear no armor and use a dinner plate as your shield

Then the empire fell,and the Franks conquered all of Gaul.

>t.future gringo maido

does this count

2,000-1,000 yeas old? Or 500 years old?
Ancient would be chainmail armoured thegns, we used swords, long knives, throwing axes, spears
1,000 years then the conical helmet becomes popular, then the greathelm after thegns become knights (fuck you william)

Specifically popular with anglo-saxons were two handed axes which they managed to cut horses in half with according to the normans.

800 years old you have mail/plate combos

700-500 years old would be full plate armoured knights in pic related with mail in the gaps

after 1500 you get just plate armour for knights with infantry such as landschknelt being less armoured for speed-usually wearing only a mail bishop's mantle or a few pieces of plate.

After 1600 you get reductions in armour-3/4 and 1/2 plate, then just breastplates,tassets, helmets and left gauntlet although "jack chains"-which were basically a series of steel rectangles , were used.
Pike and gun formations are used, cavalry have pistols and basket hilted swords

In the 1700s armour is typically only a gorget (low reaching neck armour) for officers or a curiass for heavy cavalrymen, most others were not armoured.
Due to comparative lack of evidence we do not know if tassets or arm jacks were used in any capacity, as early on officers could wear what they wanted . Muskets and swords used.

1800s- Flintlock muskets used, and sabres.
gorgets are smaller, get phased out from 1822 onwards so see use in napoleonic wars, curiasses and helmets for most heavy cavalrymen
but mostly phased out in the 1880s when breechloading guns are developed

most infantry are unarmoured apart from a large plate on their crossbelts, phased out after the crimean war in the 1850s, and varying headware; after shako hats there were pith helmets in the tropics, Germans introduced the pickelhaube, british briefly had similar steel ones etc.
