Cfp3157's "Jesus, what's with Arabs always fighting?" edges:

Close Range: In my mind, scimitars are scimitars. But then we'll take armor into consideration. I'm backing the Persian sword because it'll have an eaasier time going through the Hashashin's chainmail then the Scimitar going through the bronze scales. Edge: Immortal

Mid Range: The Spear wins. It's got superior length and the wicker shield will prevent the knives from hitting the Immortal in anywhere imprtant. Edge: Immortal

Long Range: You guys do know that a Persian bow IS a type of composite bow, right? Anyway, I'm backing the Hashashin because they are PROBABLY more trained in archery than the Immortals, who use a more "en masse" wave of arrows. Edge: Hashashin

Special: The Sagaris has a superior reach. Edge: Immortal

WINNER: Persian Immortal

The Immortal wins this hands-down. He's got all the advantages in the close-quarters fighting. His spear, sword, and axe are going to keep his opponents at a distance and are going to tear through the Hashashin's armor, while the Hashashin will not be able to through the bronze scales the Immortal is wearing.
