A Spartan warrior
A Roman infantryman
A Carthaginian mercenary
A Norse Viking
A medieval Anglo-Saxon soldier
A late-medieval English knight

>general of a caliphates army isn't an option
>>600589
Is that from that movie about the English witch nanny that flies around on a bed?
Late Medieval English Knight
>>600589
Prob the english knight, highest standard of living.
>>600589
The English Knight.
I'd have the most money and material comforts, and probably was more expected to lead a fight than actually participate.
Roman Legionary. Fuck those auxiliaries. The Legionaries had a good standard of living, good wages, and had the promise of a very comfortable life after the army.
>>600589
A knight, since that would make me a legit nobleman with some amount of material comfort in my off-time unlike the other options, where I'm just a generic warrior dude in a barracks.
Too bad I'd have to get buttfucked and suck cock as a page and squire to get there though
Viking duh
knights actually had to fight people, train and shit
being a viking I could just get on a boat, steal some slaves and a few wives, retreat back
buy a farm and live comfortably the rest of my life in beautiful norway
Knight, the other guys are basically expendable cannon fodder except for the viking but I don't relish the prospect of becoming a snownigger, at least I'll have some land even if I die at 30 of an impacted wisdom tooth.
>>600597
Yeah
>>602069
Big nobs and black cocks.
>>600589
whichever one has the warmest place to take a shit.
>>600589
The Norse viking. I would travel to lots of places and meet different people. For no other of the given alternatives would life be such an adventure.
Carthaginian mercenary
>Nice weather
>Good money
>Led by a capable general
>Italian booty aplenty
>>602069
Bednobs and Brooksticks
>>600589
>A late-medieval English knight
This is a question how?
>>603942
>led by capable general
Yeah, unless you know, you're led by ANY other guy than Hannibal.
And even if Hannibal, your demise is almost assured at Zama...
Or you don't get paid and then crushed by Carthaginian levy.
>>600594
>All 'standard' soldiers.
>Wonders why General isnt on the list.
English Knight.
Being a Spartan seems cool as well but their training seems to pass from hard but enjoyable into cripplingly hard.
>>600589
A late-medieval English knight. Not even question. Some average medieval mercenary or longbowman would be better comparison.
>>600589
>Roman infantryman
What's that. Marian? premarian Manipal if so hastatus, princeps, velites, triarius? Pre maniple phalanx? HRE footsoldier?
Be more Pacific
>>600589
>A late-medieval English knight
>noble with a lot wealth and serfs
Yes, this.
Yeah, this is stupid. You chose all like entry level grunts...and then a fucking nobleman. No brainer. If you take out the knight, I would go with Roman legionary.
>>600589
A 17th century Prussian privateer
Legionary.
Big shield + hopefully segmentata
Roman infantry technology was godly, though a late English knight is probably the better choice.
>>604420
>HRE footsoldier
>Roman
Kill yourself
>>600589
Viking, of course.
>Spend 2-3 years raiding soft, Christian targets
>Go back to Norway
>Buy a farm and slaves and spend the rest of my life farming, raising my legitimate kids to be vikings themselves and banging my thralls before finally dying in my 60s only to have my sons avenge me
Also, is it natural to fantasize extensively about the mechanics of owning slaves? I seriously spend a large chunk of my daydreaming time considering how awesome it would be to be able to just go out and buy a human being like I was buying an expensive appliance.
>A Spartan warrior
Difficult life
>A Roman infantryman
Probably the third best choice
>A Carthaginian mercenary
Lol no
>A Norse Viking
This is the best, since they lived pretty easy lives
>A medieval Anglo-Saxon soldier
Second best, since it was an easy life
>A late-medieval English knight
This is probably the hardest one
>>600589
horse archer
praise tengri desu
Late-medieval knight
>highest chance of survivability of all the listed warriors
>elite soldier rather than chaff rank and file
>lower nobility, likely a vassal of the king who owns land
>high standard of living
>will rarely face truly dangerous situations in battle due to rank, skill and importance
Sounds sweet.
>>600589
As long as Crusaders are blanketed under the English knight category I'm game
>getting to run around for the glory of God
>>604396
Knights were minor nobles and were usually of decent wealth, not exactly "standard".

what happens when your lot comes up for decimatio?
>>607304
It's probably the most ancient male predilection.
Viking :^)

>>604416
>longbowman
Yeomen didn't have bad lots either, I'd still choose that,
>>607697
If you don't mutiny or desert it doesn't matter.
>>608406
no no no no no....if no one in your legion mutinies or deserts.
decimation was applied on units with the victims being chosen by lot.
>>601538
Get lost at sea, end up in Canada, get scalped by the natives.
>>600589
Where is the love for ottoman sipahis ?
Viking.
I can sail close to a beach, lean back in the sun in my boat, while on land some autist yells out a list of wikipedia viking defeats and other related things.
>>600589
roman infantryman in the early empire. 10/10 would die for rome
I'd be a viking so I could wear a cool helmet with horns on it
