Macbeth vs. Hannibal: The claymore is longer and stronger than the falcata sword and more versitile. The warhammer, on the other hand, is not as fast as the spear is. What makes this battle is the armor. Macbeth's armor is far more advanced than Hannibal's is. Edge: Shakespear.

Othello vs. Spartacus: The sica sword is a much shorter and less advanced version of the saber. The daggers are daggers. I see no difference in them. Othello has more overal armor than Spartacus as well due to Spartacus's gladiatoral origins. Edge: Shakespear.

Tybalt vs. Vercingetorix: The rapier is one of the best swords ever made. It is not to be underestimated because it cannot slash. It is incrediably fast, can block well, and its hilt can get other swords caught in it. The iron longsword is not as fast or as long as the rapier is. Plus, the rapier tecnique is more refined than the tecniques of the time. Vercingetorix actually wins out with armor due the him having actual body armor; however, the rapier is designed to get into the armor kinks. Edge: Shakespear.

Hamlet vs. Alaric I: Throwing axes are not very accurate and when used in melee combat do not have as much range as polearms do. Hamlet also gets the edge due to having chest armor as opposed to only a shield and helmet. Edge: Shakespear.

Duke of Albany vs. Atilla the Hun: The falchion is basically a two-handed scimitar. It does not have the versitility of the sword of mars; however, it is longer than it. The Duke also has better armor and a better bow. Edge: Shakespear.

Weapon Overview: Shakespear has the best close ranged weapons and armor. The medium ranged weapons are debatable; however, he has the best long ranged weapons as well. Edge: Shakespear.

Psychological Warefare: The Enemies of Rome are more barbaric and will do things that will freak out Shakespear's Warriors. Edge: Enemies of Rome.

Stratagy: This one is closer than you would think it is. The enemies of Rome contain some great stratagists; however, Macbeth, Othello, and several others used tactics in the military. Rome barely wins this. Edge: Enemies of Rome.

Combat Experiance: The enemies of rome barely get this one as well due to Hamlet's lack of experiance. Edge: Enemies of Rome.

Endurance: Rome's enemies can sustain more physical damage to their bodies; however, Shakespear's warriors have superior armor and can deliver blows that are difficult to survive. The Enemies of Rome win this, but it does not factor much. Edge: Enemies of Rome.

Intelligence: All of these warriors are intelligent and good at finding out weaknesses. Edge: Draw.

Creativity: Shakespear's warriors tend to be more creative in their approaches than Rome's enemies due to other stratagies than attack the enemy. In addition, they have survived a lot using intellect and creativity (such as the Duke of Albany). Edge: Shakespear's Warriors.

Weapon Use/ Brutality: Shakespear's warriors use weapons that require more skill and Rome's Enemies tend to be more brutal.

My vote goes to Shakespear's Warriors.
