http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ronald_Speirs

[image loading]

"Speirs successfully took over the assault and led Easy Company to victory. During this battle, Lt. Dike had ordered a platoon to go on a flanking mission around the rear of the town. To countermand this order, Speirs himself ran through the town and German lines (as this platoon had no radio), linked up with the other soldiers, and relayed the order. Having completed this, he proceeded to run back through the German-occupied town."

"he single-handedly captured the fourth 105 mm Howitzer."

Not nearly enough people know about Götz von Berlichingen.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Götz_von_Berlichingen

He was a german mercenary about 500 years ago. Besides his numerous exploits involving him taking revenge on employers who stabbed him in the back, he also was a leader of a peasant rebellion that he straight up abandoned when it started becoming a lawless, angry mob, something he refused to be a part of.

But what really gets me about this guy is what he did after being shot by a cannon, forcing his sword back and causing him to hack off his own arm. He made a new limb.

[image loading]

That is a metal, mechanical arm. Made five centuries ago. It was so ahead of its time, he was even able to use it to write with. Of course, this also meant that it could hold a weapon, and punch people. Which is something he did do a lot of.

Oh, and Goethe wrote a play about him. In it, he actually invents the phrase "Kiss my ass". Okay, that one is really more Goethe, but still. Bad ass.

EDIT: For the guy that posted about the character Gutts from Berserk, this is the actual human being he was based off of.

as far as i can remember speirs was on the border or perhaps even OVER the border to becoming a war criminal himself. I believe he tortured and killed german prisoners of war. Now while I do agree that he is a great warrior because without leaders like him I'd probably be typing german right now, I also can't help but disagree with his methods.


P.S. the sikhs where f-ing amazing. and they wheren't some elitist club of highly trained warriors, they where a whole people / religion / thingy. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sikh

The Gaesatae, a celtic warrior. from the website of a mod that actually did some research on the subject (though i don't know their source) :

Historically, the Gaesatae were Gallic naked religious fanatics. Their skill was a source of terror, and their frightful appearance shook many. Most horrifying, even beyond their size and skill and terrifying cries, was their seeming invincibility. A chemical they used allowed them to brush off and ignore any pain. They were remarked to do things such as rip javelins that had struck them free from their bodies, and hurl them back, and continue to fight with gashes and wounds that would have surely fell a normal man. They were Hannibal's favored Gallic mercenaries, and were used as his personal guards, as they were so devoted and trustworthy, as well as brave and skilled.


Not posting a pic, thank you very much.

Funny that apparently Hannibal's personal gards were stark naked...


description copy-pasted from http://www.europabarbarorum.com/factions_arverni_units.html

yeah it's video game stuff, but like i said, that's a mod that was insistent on doing research on absolutely everything they were doing. quite a job they did, overall.

Sorry, you're not even close. classical Hoplites used much larger shields and much shorter spears, whereas the "phalangites" pioneered by Alexander's father used the 3-7 meter sarissa, which the greek city states only adopted in modified form much later.

The film 300 is terrible inaccurate though, that much you got right.

I'd have to go with Persian and Medes horse archers with composite bows...Because there is nothing more badass than to charge your enemy with a horse and shoot at him with expert marksmanship, at the same time!

Fought in WW2 with a claymore and a bow.. and killed a load of nazis with it.

Quote: "Any officer who goes into action without his sword is improperly dressed."
It is a sign of strength to cry out against fate, rather than to bow one's head and succumb.

The Hussars.
Well you got to have balls to glue wings to your back for absolutely no reason but to look cooler and then winning with 4.000 against 40.000.

For a single person, Simo hayha takes the cake

For multiple people, The Gurkhas are some of the best fighters in the world, true bamfs.
