Pac's "Civilization" edges-

Katana Vs. Gladius-The Katana is longer,heavier,has a better cutting edge,and is made by the finest swordsmiths.Maybe there's a reason why it was used for centuries.Although,the Katana can not necesarily pierce Caesar's armor,but the Gladius can.Still,the Katana is the better sword.Edge- Katana

Hasta Vs. Yari- The Yari beats out the Hasta in every way.It is longer,and it is a classic case of Steel Vs. Iron.Edge-Yari

Arcus Bow Vs. Yumi- The Arcus is lighter,and is better for long range,which will give Julius the edge for this one.Edge-Arcus

Tactics- Oda beat an army of 40,000,while he had only 2,500.He snuck up behind the Imagawa,who drunk on Sake,and destroyed their army in a suprise attack.But,Julius at Alesia could thwart the Celtic attack,and preform a siege inside a siege,with a brilliant array of tactics,forever stopping the Celtic advance into Rome.Edge- Julius Caesar

Overall Winner- This is tough.Oda has the better close and mid range weaponry,while Julius has the edge in long range and tactics.Julius will be able to pick off Oda at a long range,and then tactically defeat him.Although,it will be hard on Julius,for his men will be picked off by Oda's melee edges.But here I think it comes down to armor.Samurai armor is some of the finest in the world.Instead of the weight of shields,they have armplates.But,it will be costworthy.Although,Oda's weapons are slightly unwieldly,and if Julius comes too close,he can finish it off with his Gladius nice and easy.The winner of this matchup is Julius Caesar.

ROME FOREVER!
