Not fallen for American bribes.
Republican Guard was winning until America bribed those generals.

This.

It's satanism.

Literally demonic witchcraft.

Like the bitch of armenia being the blue dye they used to color the silk (lion of khorezm) coming from china

That it gives rise to cancer but it is idiotic to obsesses over what retards do.

Because people in the humanities are not always "nerdy". They are more intellectual than the nerds. Every scientist I've met has been a complete normie.

The whole concept of a "nerd" is flawed. Whenever media portrays something as nerdy they're showing such a small, niche group of people that it doesn't bother me.

Bad shit happens when Germany gets too powerful

So the war was a necessary and guaranteed event due to Germany becoming too groß?

Didn't theRussians start to mobilize because Austria declared war at Serbia?
Which they did because Germany's blank check?

>muh white european race

isn't even real

They had no problem slaughtering each other for thousands of years until they found foreigners to fight. And even then they kept killing each other.

'Brother wars' my ass.

Apparently they were Giants in the bible and decedents of angles or something

The Israelites were Canaanites who later on tried to pretend they weren't.

>Did fear of it or response to it every spark mutiny?
If you get decimated it means you've already mutinied, and you were captured, so you're not exactly in a position to revolt again.

>>920303

Wouldn't that still be incentive for the survivors to desert?

>>920338
Well it was a very rare punishment you know, and only reserved for very bad cases.
You'd be surprised to know how harsh your fellow man can be when you really misbehave. Deserters and mutineers threaten and endanger the whole army with their action, they're a threat to fellow soldiers as much as they are to the officers. When it was really warranted, the men (outside of the culpable unit of course) didn't object.
It's pretty common to see soldiers wanting harsh discipline actually. When you look at famous mutinies in other parts of history, you'll see that even when let to their own devices soldiers tend to practice real harsh discipline, like the mutinies of Spithead and the Nore, where british sailors kept to navy discipline in most ships and lashed offenders as harshly as their aristo officers used to.

Didn't they get assraped when their enemies changed their formation a bit?

meh, they mostly took advantage of having very very experienced soldeirs who were very good fighters, but they most just took advatage of groups who'd win by zerging their opponents with no military strategy. They are far from the only warriors to ever be "born warriors" and forced from childhood to train, they were really just the only classical greek country to really employ those type of military standards to their troops, which got heavily romanticized over the years by the romans, who we later romanticized.

If we're talking about individual skill, even then they weren't as good as other countires warriors, as they mostly relied on tactical formations and working as a group to win their battles.

If we are looking at individual skill in terms of martial prowess, I'd probably argue a Viking Warrior would probably be much more deadlier on their own then a Spartan, I'd argue a Mongolian Horse Archer to be much more deadly. Hell, i'd probably say the Persian Immortals were probably better single warriors, european knights, a samurai, hell i'd probably put any type of good bowman over these people.

They were by far the scariest of the greek city states though, but that isn't really saying all that much.

Yeah but dynasty warriors is way more fun!

>>919969

It's not as histroically accurate though.

>>919991
ROTK is novel based too. No KOEI game is historically accurate, they'd bomb the asian market if they didn't pander to shuboos.

I can't tell if you're shitposting or just foreign.

Either way, it would be funnily one sided. The whole reason plate came into being is because weaponry got better, and so did forging techniques. With better crossbows being developed, a Maille coat was no longer adequate protection.

>>924314
the guy on the left is historically inaccurate.

the other are basically right, crusaders wear the kinf of armor used basically in all northern europe (the normans helm of the fourth guy and the chainmail all over the body with a cloth on), the guy on the left wears a plate armor made and used just 1-2 centuries after last crusade
