Let's clear up why vikings most of your misconceptions based on hollywood movies is wrong.
ROUND 1
Pirate code: To make a stand against unfair and illegal taxation and mandates established by corrupt and greedy ruling powers.
Ninja code: New means of peasant defense against overpowering Samurai representing nobility.
Viking code: Die in battle to fight alongside with their gods.
Which did you get right?
ROUND 2
Pirate's weapons: Throwing axes, daggers, sabers, flintlock pistol.
Ninja's weapons: Katana, dagger, ninja star, caltrops, blow darts here and there.
Viking's weapons: Battle axe, heavy swords, spears.
Mostly correct
ROUND 3
If i saw:
Some guy in black tights coming at me (You most likely wouldn't see them before you died)
A drunk guy with a peg leg coming at me, (Pirates "retired" after a limb was lost and were given good compensation
for their loss. Everyone in that period was alcoholic, not just Pirates)
Some fierce armored guy with a big sword coming at me (Most armor they wore consisted of leather and fur with plate helmets to look more "feral")
Which are you biased against?
LAST ROUND
Pirate's clothes: Bandanas, coats, hooks, earrings, a silly hat. (Eyepatch that was used to help adjust for outside and below deck battle simultaneously, hats were optional. Jewelry was manly back then, ask the French)
Ninja's clothes: Tight, black ball-grabbing clothing and a makeshift mask. (Tighter clothes equaled less sound from friction against cloth)
Viking's clothing: Bear fur, horned helmet, leather boots, hammer necklace. (it's been established that Vikings helmets did not have horns in them. and hammer necklaces? I thought jewelry was "faaaahbulus")
Who watches too many movies?
If you believed most of the crap this person used for a basis of comparison, you are probably the most handicapped person in the world just second to the poster.
If you believe that this poster had any hope of making an informative argument, I pitty you.
Also, Nick The Sushi, Normally, I usually find you amusing. However the debate was only to be centered about Pirates Vs. Ninjas. No one else. The fact that you had to pander to every moron in here to add anything else only proves you should not have posted this topic in the first place and left it to Bisjac who started the topic in the first place.
