I won't waste any time explaining here. I simply suggest watching these two youtube videos.

Shadiversity is an expert on European warfare.

Metatron is an expert on the Samurai but is knowledgeable about most things when it comes to Medieval combat.

Watch these videos before trying to argue anything.

For context, this is in response to this somewhat well known Youtuber's video. The channel is called "Game Theory"

I too call it wrong, so I won't argue with OP in the first place...

@OP
Please waste your time explaining, not everyone here saw the video and or knows what you mean with "Game Theory".

No, he is not telling you the game is historically incorrect.
He is pertaining to "Game Theory", A famous and well known YouTube channel for gamers alike.
Game Theory was showing inaccurate information in his video so some historical youtubers debunked his video.

Game theory is a terrible Youtube channel. It's always spouting off inaccurate crap.

Yea, if we take his words on Vikings seriously Vikings couldn't possibly have been very successful. If we study history, clearly they were pretty badass. They did actually kill loads of armored soldiers.

Well one of the crazier things he said was Viking didn't have metal armor because salt water would rust it but with some oil and cleaning that's not an issue. The Viking would likely lose out of these three but not for the reasons he said.

He's really good when it comes to science stuff, he's got 2 f**in degrees for F** sake!

But in this case he's wrong, he did not compute the fact that there's no ammount of money to buy a katana that can cut throught steel plate armour such the one they are using in the game

Here's another Youtuber debunking this.

Skallagrim focuses on Vikings so now you have a video for each faction.
