Rome vs Japan

[Tiberius Geracius]

Also keep in mind that most Samurai didnt wear metal armor. Only the richest of the Samurai could afford it. Another thing the Kitana (longest of the 3 swords they carried) is in truth not the best weapon to use against an armored unit. They were made out of Iron (what little the country had), but was made with the idea that it was going to go up against either cloth wearing infantry or leather wearing Samurai. I blame movies and some Anime for distorting the truth about the Samurai. Narukami I am impressed with your knowledge of Japans history. I my self have been drawn towards it, but with all of my other college classes I have little time for personal reaserch. I had to also remind my friend that the Legion fell about 1000 years before the time of the Samurai. So one on one favors the Samurai, but group on group strongly favors the Romans.
