User blog comment:Jar teh marksman/Spartan VS Knight/@comment-3528601-20110901144238

Very, very, close fight, but the knight just has so much devestating weaponry compared to the spartan. the spartans only real killer will be the spear, as the xiphos is pretty bad, the javelin is worse, and the shield wont do as well against an armored opponent. And the spear will be cut down the halberd.
