I can imagine no place in history that would have been more fun to be than in winning gear right after one of those ancient wars - all set to rape and pillage. I can imagine no place more miserable in history than to be fighting on either side before or during the war.

Something tells me that if I was around in those days, I'd figure out a super sneaky way to jump in with the winning side right as they cross the wire.
