Who would win in a battle an army of shaolin warriors or the samurai?

I'll go with the Samurai. They are soldiers and study battle tactics rather than rely on individual specializations. Samurai learn the sword, archery, wear armor and use cooperative tactics.

Play dungeons and dragons? Have a girlfriend?





Yes and no.
Reply:I'd bet on the samurai... two reasons.





First, armed with swords versus not swords -- usually an advantage given equal training.





Second, samurai fight to kill the enemy, regardless of whether they die. Shaolin does not embrace that fanaticism. Fanaticism (given equal training and resources) usually prevails.

Assuming equal numbers, I think Shaolin may have the upper hand.
Reply:Ok, let me ask this. Who would win in a battle between an army of Bruce Lees and USMC Special Forces?





You would be up to your neck in dead Bruce Lee's. While Bruce might do well in a street fight or in the ring one on one, the other is a trained army that peform tactics as a unit.
