Fort siege scenario

Close:

The Byzantine’s attack with the SPATHA

The highlanders fight for their freedom with….

The Short axe

Personal edge: The Spatha is more reliable due to it being and slash. Plus, when stabbing, can puncture the chainmail.

For mid-range, both sides lashed out with killer weapons…

The byzantines, kept enemies at bay with the….

Menaulion!

The highlanders lopped off heads with their…

Claymore!

Personal edge: The menaulion can keep the highlander away, but due to the overall head lopping

Power of the claymore, gives it the edge.

For siege weapons these warriors destroyed their enemies.

The byzantines built the world’s first firethrower…. Greek fire!

The highlanders attacked their English opponents with….

The catapult!

Personal edge: The firethrower is accurate, can be aimed, and can lower morale whence seeing the charred carcasses of your pals.

Armor:

Highlander: Chainmail (riveted) and Targe shield

Byzantine: Kilvanion, Kite shield and Kettle helmet.

Personal edge: The steel helmet will hold up well compared to no helmet. The combination of scale armor and lamellar, Klivanion beats the Highlander’s chainmail. The targe has a spike and can be used as an offensive weapon while the wooden kite shield, cannot.

Overall edge: Byzantine.
