Habesha warrior vs Arab warrior

[JHG]

The Highlander’s opponents will clash…
Habesha warrior
These Ethiopian warriors served a long lived empire. Few can stand in their way when the war drums beat.
Arab warrior

This fierce fighter is from a land where the camel caravans roam.

Both are roughly 14th-15th century. Battle is in a plain with some zebra skeletons because Wynaut. They start with spears and can switch to their swords if needed.

Sorry, forgot to respond to this!

They both have quite similar weapons, but the Arab Warrior seems to be better armoured (even if he doesn't have a shield like the Habesha Warrior does ). And I assume he'd have better training, so I'd give him the edge here.

So…Arab warrior>Scottish Highlander>Habesha warrior?
 I’m pretty sure this would be closer than one might otherwise think. They’re both great professional warriors with plenty of experience and great weapons-I just have a feeling the Arab would have greater experience on average.

That seems to be the way it's played out, because we now have all three match-ups ! Though admittedly, it's not a 100% direct comparison, because the specific warriors came from different eras (for example, in the "Habesha Warrior vs. Scottish highlander" match-up, they were both from the 16th century, whereas in here, they were from the 14th-15th century).

Still, I don't really know enough about the specific warriors to make a confident judgement, and I was mostly just going on my intuitions based on the pictures I saw .

I think the Arab takes it. On average they seem more experienced and have as good if not better endurance.

I think Arabs take it. Not only do they on average, have far better morale (Arabs are highly nationalistic) but also have better experience and skills.

Totally not saying this because I'm Egyptian.

Maybe they do now but not in the Medieval era. I’m also sure Ethiopian warriors were skilled too so it won’t be a curbstomp.
