User blog comment:El Alamein/Sargon of Akkad vs. Ashurbanipal/@comment-95.208.150.249-20140427110324

In terms of bowwork I have to give it to the Assyrians, because they were the best archers of their time.

Technology - The Assyrians had iron weapons and  armor . So I give them the edge.

And they had also chariots like the sumerians . So in terms of  Technology , I dont know how the sumerians could win there.

The only way, Sargon can win the battle is by leadership , because Ashurbanipal was more feared than respected even by his soldiers.
