Trying to pull things back to where we were.

One on one a samuria would win. They would have a hard time getting through the iron armor of the roman, (in the late period), and getting around the shield but their cavalry prowess and archery skill versus a regular legionarrie who would probably just have the pilum for range gives them an unarguable advantage.

Army versus army I give it to the Romans
The romans had strick discipline, better tactics and formations that could counteract the samuria's skill with ranged weapons, namely the testudo.
In a straight melee fight, again roman disciplin in ranks and also their short swords are perfect for forming a great shield wall and stabbing between the shields while the katana would be too long to allow the samuria to stand close together and they would need to spread out lowering their combat effectivness.
If the romans used their spears to create a formation resembling the phalanx of Greece as they in fact did then the samuria would have an even harder time getting close though the Romans probably couldn't get close enough for their stabbing weapon to work effectively.

Though I think the samuria armor was way cool and yes their materials were better, but the roman's armor penetration makes the question of their weapons not able to kill mute, all you need is a sharp edge, not a pretty sword.

samurai* sorry...... :P

grammar Nazi...

If we're jumping on stereotypes why don't you go fight a frenchman until the germans come in to fuck you over and then gang up on him.

Or invade a neighbouring country and claim bed rights to the newly weds?

Cormac the Demigod can't even figure out how to start a poll. This is not a good sign for the complete independance of Scotland.

Cormac teh demigod. You said it first.

I like it. Sort of a greek thing but still.

Oh, I don't want Scottish independance, I want the entire nation of Britain to raise in sociolist revolt.
