I disagree. The only way the question is reasonable is to assume they have the same weapons. Keeping their actual weapons gives the Vikings 1,000 years of technology in their favor.
The bonus of having ranged weaponry is immesureable. How many Spartans would be gone before they can even engage the enemy? What good are their bronze shields if they cannot defend against iron swords?
