Ragnell Posted April 19, 2010 Share Posted April 19, 2010 Who would win in a fight, assuming there are equal numbers of each, and they have average weapons for their occupation? This is life-or-death important. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fayt Zelpher Posted April 19, 2010 Share Posted April 19, 2010 Ninjas would double attack and have superior avoid. Pirates would have more strength and HP. However, since pirates are going to be weighed down and have WTD (Because Ninjas are skilled in swords while pirates use axes), Ninjas win. The fact that ninjas are cooler in general doesn't hurt this argument either. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nightmare Posted April 19, 2010 Share Posted April 19, 2010 Real ninjas are extremely adept fighters, using stealth and deception tactics (among other things) to get an advantage over their opponent. If the opponents aren't very skilled, they won't even need stealth and deception (most pirates fall into this). Just look up actual ninjas on Youtube; I assure you, the ninjas depicted in almost all of fiction are only ninjas in name. Real ones are capable of amazing feats of skill, like running on walls, back flipping up a cliff, wall climbing, disappearing into thin air and many other things, instead of things like magic (hi Naruto). Though pirates are pretty skilled themselves, they're not on the same level as ninjas. Even pirate captains aren't skilled enough for a ninja. Yes, a single ninja can take out an entire ship of pirates. So pirates versus an equal amount of ninjas wouldn't even stand a chance. Ninjas would double attack and have superior avoid. Pirates would have more strength and HP. However, since pirates are going to be weighed down and have WTD (Because Ninjas are skilled in swords while pirates use axes), Ninjas win. I know you're doing it FE style here, but actual pirates used swords more than axes. I'm not even sure if they used axes at all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's probably true. But alas, like I said, ninjas are still cooler than pirates in any case and so will get my vote anyway. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

whase Posted April 19, 2010 Share Posted April 19, 2010 pirates are only good in big numbers and in attacking innocents ninja's are skilled in sneaking up on people and evading, taking out whole groups of enemies without taking any scratch at all simple choice here~ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tables Posted April 19, 2010 Share Posted April 19, 2010 It depends on if it's at sea or land. On land, it's a crushing victory for the Ninja's. At sea, it's a slightly less crushing victory for the Ninja's Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mikethfc Posted April 19, 2010 Share Posted April 19, 2010 I can't be the only pirate supporter here, can I? C'mon we're slowly making a comeback :D The 19th of September is national speak like a pirate day, failbook has pirate language and I haven't even mentioned the Vikings Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fayt Zelpher Posted April 19, 2010 Share Posted April 19, 2010 (edited) C'mon we're slowly making a comeback :D The 19th of September is national speak like a pirate day, failbook has pirate language and I haven't even mentioned the Vikings It's actually international talk like a pirate day. And it's the day after my birthday too. But I'm still voting for ninjas. The fact that my dad is from Chicago and is a Bears fan (and therefore hates the Vikings) doesn't help either.

peener weener Posted April 19, 2010 Share Posted April 19, 2010 (edited) You got it all wrong. It's robot pirates on Pterodactyl mounts, and zombie ninjas on T-Rex mounts. Edited April 19, 2010 by The Eye of the Tigrex Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

uguu Posted April 19, 2010 Share Posted April 19, 2010 (edited) It would practically be a tie, with ninjas winning. Ninjas can do all their running around stuff but all pirates need to do is stand in one place swinging their weapon in the general direction of the nearest ninja and they could probably get quite a few kills off edit: man how did I accidentally hit tab enter Edited April 19, 2010 by Hikarusa Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At sea, it's a slightly less crushing victory for the Ninja's Ninjas have special stealth swimming techniques too. Ships are just a smaller "land" so it wouldn't make much of a difference, I don't think. Ninjas can do all their running around stuff but all pirates need to do is stand in one place swinging their weapon in the general direction of the nearest ninja and they could probably get quite a few kills off Actually, blindly swinging wouldn't do them any good. Ninjas are extremely good at avoiding hits, especially when it comes to weapons. I've seen a video of a ninja master trying to hit his student with a pole but he couldn't land a single hit. The student's evasion was ridiculously swift. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hatchet Posted April 19, 2010 Share Posted April 19, 2010 I'd love to see an FE hack of pirates (Berserkers) vs. Ninjas (assassins)....

Ether Posted April 19, 2010 Share Posted April 19, 2010 Well,it depends.Pirates do have firearms on their side,and a flintlock can easily pierce an unarmoured opponent.The grenado covers a large radius,and can stun a ninja,if not outright kill him,giving the pirate time to kill him with a gun or the cutlass.While i'm not voting for pirates persay,I do believe they they have been unfairly represented.
