User blog comment:SkullinBones1/Season 1 Finale. Viking vs Samurai Rematch/@comment-27358240-20200111025947

I'm sorry to do this, but I'm seeing a lot of inaccuracies here. First off, the Yumi having a pitiful draw weight of 50 lbs. This is complete and utter BS. An old war Yumi has been found to have had a draw weight of over 90 kg. Many calculations put war yumis used by the samurai class at draw weight well above the 50 kg range. They were heavily armored horse archers, how do you expect them to kill their equally heavily armored opponent with 25 kg of draw weight? The ranges are equally inaccurate, 10-20 feet for armor penetration? Where the blaze did you get those numbers?

The Ō-yoroi had guards for the face, lower leg and forearms, respectively the mempō or at least the hatsumuri, the sune-ate and the kote. Next, 35 kg for the Ō-yoroi is way too much. This page does a good job at gauging the weight of the armor. ~25 kg is much closer.

The Viking's armor is too light. Most estimates for mail alone puts it at around 13 kg. Add to that the 3 kg of gambeson and 3 kg of helmet and you got somewhere around 19-20 kg.

The Samurai very much fought enemies similar to the Vikings. The Korean and Chinese auxiliaries of the Mongols used infantry tactics similar to the Vikings.

There's a lot else which I would point out, but since I'm on my phone I'll leave it here for now. I'll be awaiting a response.
