Deathblade's "Vandalised Saxon" edges

Both of these warriors appeared at the end of the Roman Empire. So let's begin.

Long Range: Saxon. The sling has reported itself to be the worst weapon in warfare. The Saxon spear on the other hand is capable of doing more damage to flesh and is armour piercing. Sure, you have range with the sling but, the spear is capable of killing out right.

Mid Range: Vandal. The Dane Axe can cut though the Framea spear, easily. Sure, you can thow the Framea, but you only have one shot with the Framea. With the Dane Axe, you can use it repeatedly and despite it taking strength out of you, at least you can use it again after your initial strike.

Close Range: Dead Even. They are both longswords, both the same length and not much else to talk about really. The Migration era sword is heavier than the long sword, but that's just about it.

Special: Vandal. Sure, the flail is a two edged weapon ready to kill you as well as your enemy; but in the right hands it's a devastating weapon. The Seax is just too short and is not as good as the flail in striking power or range.

X-Factors: Vandal. The Vandal has more experience, endurance and is more brutal than the Saxon.

Winner: Vandal. They have more X-Factors, and better weapons than the Saxon.
