User blog comment:Deathblade 100/Rome's deadliest rivals: Spartacus vs Arminius/@comment-4392864-20160521183429

Rome had many enemies. German resistance leader Arminius, and rebellious gladiator Spartacus are among them. Both are rebels of one nature or another.

Long Range: Framea versus Pilum. The pilum is something of a ranged weapon. However, the Framea can be used in a melee fight. I think the Framea will do the job better. Edge: Arminius

Mid Range: Double handed Axe versus Trident and Net Combo. Axes are good, but the trident and net combo gives the fighter options. Edge: Spartacus

Close Range: Spatha versus Gladius. I think the Spatha has this, for their longer reach. Edge: Arminius

Special: Fire Hardened Club versus Sica. The Sica is basically a sword, and swords usually win. Edge: Spartacus

Armor: Shield versus Manica. One is a big piece of wood that can protect the whole body. The other just protects the arm. I'd go with body protection. Edge: Arminius

Deadliest Warrior: Both of these guys pissed off the Romans. That being said, Arminius understood his foe, whereas, Spartacus, essentially, operated as a large scale brigand. Winner: Arminius
