Rus' battle armor 13-15 century.
>ancient
Samurais are at most old-medieval m9
Samurai fucking sucks
They are like retard of all warriors
If we can even call them warriors because they are literally tatar tier.
Why tatar? Because samurais were HORSE ARCHERS and not real warriors they never even used their katanas in battles because it was shit.
If they start meele combat they fought with spears and naginatas and not with sword.
A fucking roman legionist would kick salant asians little ass of samurai with a fucking GLADIUS.

Samurais looks nice 2bh, but you know, armor that was made of pressed paper and leather can't defend you in non-arrow (real) battle.
You can't fight weapons coated with Dart frog poison.
Like this ;-)

Some sources say our system of government was influenced by that of the Iroquois Confederacy, which dwelt in the lands south of the Great Lakes. We got along pretty well with them until we got triggered by their refusal to help us in the Revolution (they wanted to just stay out of it and not get involved).
>>69181985
Most of the Iroquois were always allied with the British. Initially they tried neutrality during the American war of Independence, but weren't long in siding with the Brits again.
You said ancient then posted a samurai, but I guess you mean any old warrior type.
Caroleans were probably the most efficent soldiers in Europe during their hayday. Too bad there were so few of them. Karl XI is grossly underrated, especially compared to his father and his son with 20-20 hindsight.

It was basically influenced by muslims cuz their armor was top tier back in 13 cent

Only the one on the left is typically Anglo-Saxon, the one on the right has a helmet more typical of the Vendel period in Sweden.

That kind of helmet is the coolest shit. The lack of a clear neck and facial features beyond the eyes makes the soldier come off as much more inhuman.
>>69183950
bravo england
Fact: warriors who wore garish displays weren't real warriors and rarely, if ever, had to fight for their lives
>>69183989
Seeming inhuman isn't really a good thing for a soldier though (in general), your enemy is much more likely to hesitate even for a second if they feel like they're killing a human being/someone they can empathize with
>>69184059
MUH
>>69184104
yeah no
soldiers will be made to see enemy as inhumane anyway, so much so it will stick to next generation
you should know given your history with the blyadlands
>>69184034
Not our fault - most of the soldiers had no experience, nor any training, nor any knowledge of that area. The Japanese on the other hand knew the entire Malay peninsula inside out. Also, the Japanese had an intelligence network by which they gained first-hand knowledge of the Allied positions. Many Japanese spies slipped into Singapore as civilians, from where they reported back on all the Allied fortifications. Couldn't do much about that

2,000-1,000 yeas old? Or 500 years old?
Ancient would be chainmail armoured thegns, we used swords, long knives, throwing axes, spears
1,000 years then the conical helmet becomes popular, then the greathelm after thegns become knights (fuck you william)
Specifically popular with anglo-saxons were two handed axes which they managed to cut horses in half with according to the normans.
800 years old you have mail/plate combos
700-500 years old would be full plate armoured knights in pic related with mail in the gaps
after 1500 you get just plate armour for knights with infantry such as landschknelt being less armoured for speed-usually wearing only a mail bishop's mantle or a few pieces of plate.
After 1600 you get reductions in armour-3/4 and 1/2 plate, then just breastplates,tassets, helmets and left gauntlet although "jack chains"-which were basically a series of steel rectangles , were used.
Pike and gun formations are used, cavalry have pistols and basket hilted swords
In the 1700s armour is typically only a gorget (low reaching neck armour) for officers or a curiass for heavy cavalrymen, most others were not armoured.
Due to comparative lack of evidence we do not know if tassets or arm jacks were used in any capacity, as early on officers could wear what they wanted . Muskets and swords used.
1800s- Flintlock muskets used, and sabres.
gorgets are smaller, get phased out from 1822 onwards so see use in napoleonic wars, curiasses and helmets for most heavy cavalrymen
but mostly phased out in the 1880s when breechloading guns are developed
most infantry are unarmoured apart from a large plate on their crossbelts, phased out after the crimean war in the 1850s, and varying headware; after shako hats there were pith helmets in the tropics, Germans introduced the pickelhaube, british briefly had similar steel ones etc.

16th century, knights are pretty much outdated. It's pike and shot time.
>>69186481
Yes, they were often people turks had, er, stolen.
Likewise the mamluks , although they included turks which had been..stolen.
Most of the people who had been stolen were georgians , armenians etc.
>>69186552
Firearms are getting more widespread.

Of course, there were different uniforms.
I wish we had kept the black uniforms though, they were cool as fuck.
>>69187607
Then WW1 arrived, and uniforms changed very quickly.

There's 30 million plus US citizens of Mexican ancestry, that's one in ten, same as the Irish, add other Latinos and it's one in six.
Trump's own estimate, which is considered unrealistic, is he will deport 2-3 million illegals of which only half would be Mexicans, that means upwards of 3 million Mexican illegals would remain in the US.

Late periods Samurai armours could have iron plates inside the platelets and they sometimes used chainmail, it wasn't uncommon.
It's funny because before the more internationally known Sengoku and Edo periods, iron armours and helmets were pretty much the norm.
