Poll: the real deadliest warrior

[spectrenihlus]

This was me

Seriously if you don't cry you don't have a soul

 

[goldenjester]

Cthulu, interstellar Space God Priest FTW.

Damn, ninja'd. Fine. I'll raise you one Dagon and a Shoggoth.

 

[Nouw]

Spoiler: These people. And I hope these guys are real

Seriously though, Spartans are useless. I'd choose a Spetsnaz team any day

 

[Turbo_Destructor]

The obvious Spartans whether that be 300 styly( or the gay halo ones.)
Robots
Zombies

The Spartans in 300 were pretty gay, not to mention that Spartans were generally the biggest assholes of the ancient world.

 

[Sonicron]

The primarchs from W40k, specifically Leman Russ.
Why? Because nothing says "I'm fucked" like finding yourself at the wrong end of the blade of a giant genetically engineered and enhanced immortal nazi space viking in power armor.

 

[Indecipherable]

a sniper rifle where their patience and dedication makes them incredibly deadly.

Although this is certainly true, I think the role of snipers is way WAY overstated and overglorified. A decent artillery team is infinitely more dangerous than a sniper.

 

[Liham]

A regiment of eminem's that are also zombies.
or maybe the buddy christ.
Huh thats it! a zombie buddy christ eminem!

OT: Jack Churchill wins everything.

well what about that Finish sniper in the Winter War? simon somthing or other. any way he killed over 700 Russians, with an unscoped bolt action rifle, in extreme conditions. The Russians sent in infantry, artillery, tanks, even bombed an entire town out of existence to try and kill this one man. And he survived it all.

so ya a duel between these two would be epic.

Simo Häyhä is the guy you're looking for.

Not for moral. Nothing scares infantry units like a bullet from nowhere wounding their commanding officer. They'll be peeing their pants for the next hours untill the next bullet hits someone.. And then they start crapping their pants.

Raptor Jesus ftw

Soviet artillery earned a terrifying reputation, they were the first army to effectively use massed explosive tipped rockets, they could just deliver so much ordinance in one area, so quickly and with so little warning... The Weremacht back then was a LETHAL force but they simple had nothing that could hold the Soviets back.

Interestingly take a look at Soviet's involvement in the Manchuria Campaign... steamrollered through thousands of miles of Japanese occupied territory, in only a few days.

(PS: I believe in liberal democracy, I have no time for Stalinist communism or Nazism, I just admire their fighting ability)

That's why they'd win. Trolls FTW!

 

[Xpwn3ntial]

One squad of each,

USAF Pararescue
USMC Force Recon
USA Army Rangers
USN Seals

Now that is a competition.

Add Spetnaz, SAS, or north korean SWAT.

Yes, north korean SWAT can compete with armys. Those guys are INSANE.

What about Wehrmacht or Imperial soldiers?

 

[Wrists]

Spartans

They were called Hoplites. Spartans were just one of the Greek peoples. This would be like calling Navy Seals Americans instead of Navy Seals.

Pedantic man to the rescue!

Actually, hoplites were the infantry backbone of all the Greek city states, not just the Spartans, what would be more accurate would be to refer to the Homoioi, which were the ten thousand or so soldiers at the top of the Spartan social heap.

OT: In large numbers, the Romans, individually, I can't really think of an answer, since I suppose any random person could be beaten by any other random guy.

 

[Trivun]

Hmmmmmm...

I'd pick a team composed of the following:

- Lucy (Elfen Lied)
- Alucard (Hellsing)
- Yami Bakura (Yu-Gi-Oh)
- Alice (Twilight)
- Alice (American McGee)
- Van Helsing (Universal film)
- Master Chief (Halo)
- Ezio (Assassin's Creed 2)

Covers all the bases, and as a squad they're pretty much indestructable. Not to mention some of my favourite characters around.

And if I have to pick a real-life squad, then I'd say the Mongolian horse archers were pretty damn deadly. Either them, or English medieval longbowmen. They were pretty much the entire reason we won at Agincourt, and in battle the English armies of the time were damn near indestructable, thanks to the longbowmen's capabilities at cutting down the enemy before they were close enough to attack...
