Everything Varg says is the result of his eternal angst resulting from Rome raping Gaul.

>a murderer talking about other people being murderers
Internet gave voice to scum people

This is plainly not true. The Romans placed a great deal of importance on individual martial skill. There were great rewards for Roman soldiers who challenged enemies to single combat or who performed acts of heroic derring do. Constantine, for instance, was renowned for his ability as a "bellator", or warrior.

Well he knows what it is to stab someone in the back

This.

Contrary to popular belief, the Romans at this point in time did not fight in a densely packed shield wall. Most of the time, they fought in a relatively loose order.
Why?
Just look at this guy's armament. Large, curved shield, tiny sword. Spears designed for throwing over thrusting.
If you're tightly packed together, and can't step out of line, what the fuck are you supposed to do?
For starters, you will at the very least need to break such a tight formation to even be able use the Pilum properly. If you want to fight in the shield wall, that means you'd then have to retreat back into formation as the rather pissed off enemy is presumably charging at you.
No matter where you go, most of your opponents will be armed with spears, they have absolutely no reason to get any closer than a spear's length from you, as they naturally outrange the Gladius bigtime. If you don't have any freedom of movement it'll basically be damn near impossible to get in range.

The Romans relied on their training, and much of this training WAS related to individual combat skill. The fact that they had the necessary competence that they didn't have to rely on tight shield walls is what gave them their legendary flexibility, they were expected to have the skill to be able to use the Scutum to close the distance, and to be able to mutually support one-another without relying on a constrictive formation.

...what? By the 4th century Rome often deployed German mercenaries to fight Germans.

>By the 4th century Rome often deployed German mercenaries to fight Germans.
Varg's wrong but this is wrong too. Foederati weren't mercenaries, any more than the Royal Regiment of Scotland are mercenaries in the British Army. They weren't paid, and in fact sometimes had to pay the Romans. Plus, they were never used in great numbers. It was usual to find fewer than 100 Foederati attached to a Roman army of several thousand.

Snowniggers get lost.

How did the Germanic Barbarians not figure out a written system before the Romans came about? Obviously they were capable of it, why did it take the long dick of Roman conquest to kick it into gear?

have you read the gallic wars by caesar? he explicitly tells how he killed 1/3 of gaul, enslaved another 1/3, and ruled over the last

Yes I did. If he wiped out every single Gaul then it’d be a genocide, and even then he would be just as bad as an average Assyrian king.
Compare Caesar to any of them, or even the average Persian king, you’d realize Caesar was extremely merciful for his time.

Caesar inflated the numbers to make himself looks better

What's the truth then? Most of the tribes just paid him tributes for protection or something?

He saved them from Ariovistus, a Germanic king who would have almost certainly overrun Gaul and been a hell of a lot more brutal about it. Julius spanked his horde so hard he fled over the Rhine on a small raft and left his wife and daughter behind for the Romans to "enjoy"

Blame Europe for their pussy ass prison sentences. In Florida he would have gotten life no parole

Is he retarded? Romans were known for preferring to fight out in the open, and hated cowardly tactics like ambushes. This is what led to many disasters, especially at the hands of Hannibal.

Julius Caesar was literally invited into Gaul to settle their differences. Many tribes actively allied with him, seeing the writing on the wall and eager to secure for themselves a good place in the coming new world order. For other tribes allying with Rome was self-defense, trading a little freedom in exchange for having the biggest, baddest army of disciplined, grizzled veterans to keep them safe from their more bellicose neighbors.

The tribes which got annihilated were the tribes whose entire culture and way of life was centered around raiding, for whom the rule of law would have meant the end of their way of life of murderous thievery.

They spend their spare time hunting and killing each other for sport. Tends to make for warriors who are great at 1 on 1 combat, but suck in an extended melee because they'd charge as a giant undisciplined horde and their warriors would fatigue after an extended confrontation. Meanwhile, Romans marched in strictly disciplined regiments, stayed in their yard, and cycled fresh troops to the front while fatigued ones would fall back within the ranks to catch their breath. Something as simple as losing their shield in the melee was enough to warrant a military execution, Romans made it so that it took more courage to flee than it did to stand and fight.

Romans didn't need to be big and strong, they were the undisputed masters of outlasting their opponents.

Don't forget the two centurions in Caesar's diary, the madman who walked out of the Roman camp and challenged several gauls to single-combat, killing several and losing his arm in the process.

Men from Pompeii were 166 cm on average, while for non-Romans between Austria and Denmark, archaeology suggests an average height of about 174 cm or 57.

/pol/ falling for a literally mentally-ill murderer that burned down churches and lives on welfare really showcases how far unrestrained autism can go

Not to mention state sponsored single motherhood and the destruction of the family

Most people don't like Varg over there, sweetie.
Varg also frequently mocks the alt-right.

he's correct. gauls were superior when it came to one on one hand to hand combat

Before the roman came some celts were writing in greek script

This guy is literally a racist murderer who complains about immigrants who speak the language and integrate, even though he himself is an immigrant.

Do you we wuzzers have a certain bodycount quota that is considered OK to you?

7 to 1 would be more respectable.

Not with Hannibal it wasn't

No. I'm just saying that a top tier professional soldier beating random tribesmen 1v1 shouldn't be a bragging point. It's like a pro Kickboxer fighting random people.

Are you one of those mongrels who think hollywood 1v10's are a thing and plays total war and takes 3 doses of adderall a day?

Fuck off, I use Prozac

I don't understand how someone can be this dumb. Yes, the gauls did sack Rivera after, what, nearly 400 years of the Roman empire? After it was already severely weakened and fighting on multiple fronts? These far-right dudes just do not understand fucking nuance. They look at one point in time and say "see, this confirms what I think!" ignoring all the times history didn't.

Ironically their most famous loss to germanics was in an ambush. That aint very honourable
