Any predictions or comments?
I am predicting Washington he defeated the British the French failed to do the same,

That was a very close episode. less then a percent. I figured arty would have played a bigger roll but as all events were close the hybrid firing line carried the day,

That the show will be horrible and the results based on flight of fancy.

.. Oh man.. Deadliest Warrior.... where to start... <_<

???

How could Washington have a chance against Napoleon?

Washington faced a fragment of the British army and Lost, Lost, Lost, and Lost again. Valley Forge was the full retreat from the battles in New York. His first victory was a surprise attack in Trenton, and that was against Mercenaries (Hessians). Yorktown was won because 1) Cornwallis had overextended himself and underestimated the American army he had faces (with which Washington had nothing to do) 2) the French Fleet had arrived and beaten off the British fleet, so blockaded the British Army in by sea, and 3) Washington rushed down to seal the victory that others had won for him.

Napoleon defeated, what some 8 European powers, lost Russia not to battle but to winter, was completely defeated, then fully returned and fought two separate armies again at Waterloo. He was genius, masterful, and turned several tactical defeats into strategic and popular victories (just look at the Egyptian campaign).

The only lesson I can see herre is that lesser Generals can gain victories when their superiors overextend themselves out of confidence.

Exactly. The show is bogus.

Not only for that, but as I explained to my friend, there are far too many variables in battle, even in single combat.

Ninja Vs Spartan? Try 50 Ninjas against 50 Spartans. At night. Then you give both sides the advantages that made them the deadly warriors they are known to be. (Spartans had the PHALANX of OTHER Spartans. Ninjas had nighttime stealth).

There's other problems I have with other matchups that makes them near impossible, but then this will turn into a rage post and probably get the topic shut down eventually so... meh.

I just.. I can't stand the show. Even worse fact that it somehow became a video game (and not the best made one either..). If you really want to fantasize what two different types of warriors will do to eachother in a video game, PLAY MORTAL KOMBAT.

Mortal Kombat is bogus. I tried ripping my skin off my skull like Scorpion to hurl a fireball from my mouth. I only made it to the base of My nostrils. Skin is really sticky.

Also, it hurt.







:lol:

Despite above /rant, I enjoy the show as it is meant to be.... ENTERTAINMENT. I enjoy seeing what these weapons can do in the hands of a (somewhat dubious I admit) expert.

My favorite episode was Viking vs. Samurai where the Samurai expert called his shots with the Yumi bow, then placed two shots in BOTH eyes afterward.

Regardless, its all fluff and fancy, and fun. Don't over analyze. Well, maybe Wodon can, that was kinda cool of an analysis.

I really like that show because it's so exceptional dumb. Just the right dumbness I need after a 10 hour workday.

To yesterdays episode: Try to explain to the average american that l'Empereur Napoleon and Farmerguy George Washington don't play in the same league not even the same sport.

Ninja vs Spartan. really?

Even Spartans need to sleep.... X_X

Not to mention Napoleon was the anti-christ and Washington was just an idealist.

This. A thousand times this.

This. It sums up everything to be said.

Haha, I loved the Deadliest Character-spoof he did, though Mecha Godzilla should have won.
