What Norse unit is better?

on the flanks: golden horde heavy cavalry
centre: Macedonian phallanx
on recon: 16th century samurai with bows and swords
and a nice couple of groups of vikings and one group of landshrekt(sp?)
 
Depend entirely on the goal of my outfit...


I'm partial to the Waffen SS Panzer gruppes. They do genocide with sophistication and class...

But if it was carnage rather than efficiencey as my goal, I'd have to go with the Celtic berserkers of my native Ireland... giant claymores they stole from the Scots and farm tools as weapons. They went into battle completely naked... that'd scare the shit out of the opposition: 2000 screaming, drunken and angry naked Irishmen with heavy weapons in tow. Jeezus...
 
Some French guy said that Napoleon was the only countryman of his that he could be proud of... guess he forgot about Charles Martell, Carolus Magnus or Charlemagne or Carl the great or whatever you wish to call him and those other Franconian kings...

Styrbjörn Starke of Svithiod would also be good general, as well as Beowulf.
Rommel would be another great one.

I don't like the Huns, and I wouldn't call what those easterners did fighting (shooting down the foe from horseback, burning villages in hope that the next village won't fight etc.). But then a united force of Westerners (Visigoths, Francs, Romans) defeated them under leadership of that great Roman general - what was his name again?

The best troops today I would say are the British SAS, American SEAL and Delta, as well as the Israeli Paratroopers.
 
The Israelis should all be fucking murdered, killing all those innocent Arab lives everyday and I hope to see every motherfucker in that country get NUKED. I'm not anti USA or anything but they need to stop being on Israel's side, as well as totally gay countries like Sweden does.

I know man, Vikings are overrated compared to these boys. Whos in your avatar, anyway.

Innocent? there are no innocents...everyone on this fucking planet deserves to die. Sometimes I pray that there really is a god, so he can bring the fucking apocalypse down on our asses.
 
First of all,
I wasn't making a political statement when I claimed that the Israeli paatroopers are some of the most well-trained and efficient troops on the planet, it just happens to be a fact. If you think that they're some kind of Einsatzgruppe you are just plain wrong.

Pro secundo,
How can you as a Westerner (which I pressume you are) support some bunch of crazy-ass Easterling fundamentalist, who in the long run wish upon the extermination of all they consider as "infidel". This is a political statement.

Pro tertio (and most important)
You can call the Swedish Government gay as much as you want to, I won't mind, but DO NOT use that word to describe the country.
 
:lol: and what are you gonna do about it? before you start bullshitting me that I know none of the country etc etc keep in mind I've studied there and grew up there. Oh and it's gay as fuck :)
 
The above really had nothing to do with Norse units at all. And in the Norse units, it was only frowned upon to be the man who went on the bottom during anal sex, so the whole gay thing is a concept that really truly does not apply here. Patric, behave!
