User blog comment:Undead RVD/Roman invasion of Rus!: Alexander Nevsky vs Julius Caesar/@comment-5078776-20130320204215

Cfp3157's "WHy is a Saint killing people?" edges:

Close Range: The Longsword is the more versatile weapon. It can slash and thrust effectively, be wielded on foot and horseback, and what it sacrafices in weight it takes in range.

EDGE: Nevsky

Mid Range: The Bear Spear takes purely because of the longer point.

EDGE: Nevsky

Long Range: The Bow has a farther range and can be aimed more precisely.

EDGE: Nevsky

Armor (Commanders):

Chest Armor: The Lamellar and Chainmail combo wins. Both types of armor are resistent to thrusting, but the Lamellar and Chainmail are made of steel rather than iron ad bronze.

Helmet: Not enough info on Roman helmet.

Shields: The Parma, because it covers more areas of the body than the other one.

Overall edge: Even

WINNER: Alexander Nevsky

Nevsky wins here, mainly because he is much better armed than Caesar, is a better strategist, has more combat experience, is better physcialy, and has the homefield advantage. Caesar simply cannot win this.
