Please explain how they came to the conclusion that the Waffen SS from the 40's would beat the Vietcong IN Vietnam when american forces couldnt beat them with a military force that is 20 years more advanced than it was in the time when it beat the nazis in WW2? Its obvious in this match up that whoever has home field advantage would destroy the other force but they dont ever take that into account. Vietcong wouldnt last A day in the open ground battlefield setting of europe vs the military force that nearly spear headed the taking over of the world. And the Waffen SS would get beat faster than america did facing the Vietcong with their gloves off, dirty guerrilla warfare tactics in A jungle where the Waffen SS wouldnt have tanks or the ability to use their classic open ground warfare tactics.
Then, with a samurei vs a viking, why dont they take into account that the average samurai was probably about 5'5'' 120 pounds while a viking was way wayyy bigger and stronger. dont get me wrong, samurais were bad men but Youve got to take into account the physicality of these individuals.
Then they say a pirate who has no armor, no training, and probably has scurvy would beat a Knight whos been trained from day one to pretty much be a terminator, is decked out head toe in full body armor, has a vast assortment of weapons including projectiles such as crossbow which is a hell of alot more accurate than a pirates smooth bore musket would be. Not to mention a knight has a gigantic highly trained friesian war horse bred to kill anyone and everyone in site around them? I dont think so...
