If you've seen the show, you know what I mean.

If not, assume that you can take two people or groups form any era and match them up in head to head combat via computer simulation based (at least loosely) on 'data' that is usually considered questionable.

I give you, as options:

Ex-wife versus Soccer Hooligan (comedic)
Napoleonic Old Guard vs. Union Iron Brigade (interesting)
Zardoz versus Chewbacca (sci-fi)

Mel Gibson vs Banastre Tarleton.
Bart Simpson vs Cartman.
Colin Ferrell vs Alexander the Great.
Zulu Impis vs Roman legion.
English longbows vs Mongol horde.

Not to mention matching up a viking missile weapon vs. a samurai melee weapon, then a samurai missile weapon vs. a viking melee weapon? That dumbfounded me.

How about:

Connery as Red-Nappy Lord Gaga/Village Person from "Zardoz" vs. Connery as English Spy Posing as Truly Unconvincing Japanese Man from "You Only Live Twice"

(camp throw-down)

Mr T verses grandpa from the simpsons ! I reckon grandpa would win ! He's a dark horse for sure !

Grand Duke Natokina15 Sep 2011 11:13 a.m. PST

Semi-reality based, English longbows versus Berdan's Sharpshooters.
Zulu impi versus Roman Legion, I would vote with the legion.
They have armor, and are probably more disciplined soldier than warrior.

J Womack 9415 Sep 2011 11:17 a.m. PST

Longbow versus Berdan's would be interesting.

So would Zulu versus Roman. I am betting they give it to Zulu based on the fact that Legions were not trained to fight as individuals as much as they were trained to fight in formation with other soldiers. But the armor factor is worthwhile.

J Womack 9415 Sep 2011 11:18 a.m. PST

Oh, and Zardoz versus Bond is a good one.

Swiss Pike vs English Longbow

21eRegt15 Sep 2011 1:51 p.m. PST

Xena vs. Beastmaster is great! And they would have such beautiful babies… so not to the death, but to… subdual.

Zulu weapons and protection would not match up well against Romans. Even if the Romans broke ranks with the encirclement tactic it is going to be grim for the Zulus.

21eRegt15 Sep 2011 1:52 p.m. PST

Vampires vs. Zombies last night without question set a new low for the show and demonstrates how desperate they are for ideas.

Vampires vs. Zombies last night without question set a new low for the show and demonstrates how desperate they are for ideas.

Actually, I thought it much less insulting to my intelligence (even when I do my damnedest to switch my brain off and just go with it). Being as how there ain't no such things as vampires or zombies, the math is never wrong. Hey, at least this is not on the History Channel.
