>1. The Samurai
Trained from the moment he can toddle and instilled with iron discipline to brace the cruelties of the world. While not as physically strong as other warriors, they more than made up for it with their superior speed. This alongside with their 'katanas' which were known to slice armor in half, made them very dangerous opponents to fight head on.
>2. The Viking
While not as trained as their Eastern counterparts, the ferocity of the Viking warrior was known world wide all the way from the Aztec's to the Jap's. It's said that in battle they'd enter a transformation from pure bloodlust called the ''Berserker". When Viking's entered their Berserker rage entire Roman legions were said to be wiped out.
>3. The Celtic
Infamous for their strength. They wielded the broadsword and commonly fought by themselves. It sounds like a disadvantage but each Celtic warrior was strong enough to cleave a man right into two with a single blow, which made them feared across Europe.
>4. The Aztec
Probably stemming from the one of the greatest civilizations to appear in the Americas. They were skilled enough in battle to avoid killing their opponent and instead take them back to the HQ where they would be sacrificed by the priests to live another day. Their blade, the Macuahuitl, could deliver a horrific and were known to have decapitate men in battle and once was reported to have even decapitated a conquistadors horse!
>5. The Roman
Although the Roman warrior was outmatched in strength, speed, height and bloodlust the majority of the time in their conquests of the Germanic tribes, they more than easily made up for it with their ingenious tactics which mowed down hordes upon hordes of the Germanics despite being outnumbered usually a 1000:1 .
