This thread was swiped from Rotten Tomatoes, but I felt the need to pose the question here.

1) 100 samurai versus 100 Spartans. The samurai have their swords and traditional armor, along with bows. The Spartans have their spears, swords, and shields. Who wins?

2) 1 samurai versus 1 Spartan. The samurai has his swords and his traditional armor, the Spartan has his spear, his sword, and his shield. Who wins?
