Kind of forgot to mention that their weapons and armor of Gladiators were designed to NOT be particularly deadly for easy killing power, hence prolonging the entertainment. Just a dumb idea for a matchup. Maybe if they had a Roman Legionairre, an actual soldier with effective weapons, it wouldn't have become such a 'native american is superior oot oot woot' cultural pat-on-the-head bias as that episode seemed so full of.

I was more angry that they focused on only one type of gladiator. They were ususally split into four(IIRC) different types of gladiators. I think they used the myrmidon.
