User blog:BattleGames1/Deadliest Warrior Battle 11 - Anaksha vs Ann Matsura



Ladies and gentlemen of Deadliest Fiction, I present to you a battle I've been wanting to do for a while - a showdown between two very deadly female snipers.

Anaksha, the Virgo Killer and Santa Lina's supposed saviour from crime...

vs

Ann Matsura, the EPDA sniper who against all odds was able to protect a dangerous weapon from falling into the wrong hands...

'WHO... IS... DEADLIEST?'

=Let's Meet the Combatants=

Anaksha


Anaksha (or Anna for short), also known as Santa Lina's infamous Virgo Killer. She is the founder and owner of the Zaranna Corporation and lives in South Leighton Oaks. She got her nickname from the Virgo tattoo on her upper left arm. Anaksha came to live in Santa Lina at the age of 12 after fleeing her East Indian homeland. She was eventually found and taken into foster care. Before long she had grown into a beautiful, and well educated young woman with a stable job and her own place. But things didn't go as planned, as a long series of unfortunate events finally caused her to snap (eventually with the murder of her best friend Zara). She now leads a double-life. By day she's a successful business woman. By night she's a lone huntress with a sniper rifle, dedicated to "destroying the evil of the city". Despite her popularity with the public, she is a wanted criminal by the Santa Lina police - but the Police are in the dark concerning the Virgo Killer's identity (they even get the gender wrong!).

Her partner in crime in her sniping activities is the 1980s geeky girl known as Dee, who is top of the mark at giving Anaksha intel on the city and its activities. Another person who has helped her become what she is as a sniper is Edward (also affectionately known as 'Baba Ji' or 'Respected Elder' in Hindu/Urdu) who happens to be a former/retired/veteran marine and spec-ops agent.

Ann Matsura


Ann Matsura is a student of the Eastern Private Defense Academy, located in the Japanese Self-Defense Force Fuji Training Grounds and the main cast of the 2011 web-anime series Busou Chuugakusei: Basket Army. The series takes place in 2026, by which point a future Japanese government has created a sort of JROTC-like program that allows students to start training for the JSDF as young as middle school. The story follows and a class of middle schoolers at Eastern Private Defense Academy, who, on the day of their graduation from middle school, are attacked by a mysterious enemy who are after a box containing some sort of experimental weapon. The students are given the box by a dying teacher at the academy and are told to protect it. They manage to secure the box and hole up in the main Eastern Private Defense Academy building, arming themselves and fortifying the building against attack with Claymore mines. It is later revealed that the mysterious enemy are in fact a French private military company, Trident, who have been hired to retrieve the box by an unknown client. At this time, the anime series is ongoing.

The daughter of a rock star and a ceramic artist, Ann's parents were both staunch pacifists. When Ann had a falling out with her family, she left home and enrolled in Eastern Private Defense Academy in an effort to distance herself from them. Ann generally was satisfied with life at the academy, proving herself to be a skilled markswoman, an attribute that would prove useful against the Trident mercenaries. Ann's favored weapon is a Walther WA-2000 sniper rifle.

=Now, Let's Analyze the Weapons=

Colt M1911
The M1911 is a .45 caliber semi automatic handgun with an 7-round magazine. The weapon has an effective range of 50 meters and a muzzle velocity of 251m/s.

H&K USP
The USP is a German-made semi-automatic handgun in .45 caliber, with a maximum range of 30 meters, a 12-round magazine and a muzzle velocity of 390m/s.

BG1's Edge
Looking at the stats, I guess that the H&K USP takes this category for having the larger magazine and higher muzzle velocity.

M24
The M24 is a military version of the Remington 700 rifle. The M24 is a bolt action sniper rifle that, in the Anaksha games, has been modified to suit her needs - the ammunition she uses is the .308 Winchester, it has an effective range of over 1200 yards and it can hold 6 rounds in the chamber (in the game, she uses a magazine loader, in here that's what ill use too). For the purposes of this match, the M24 will be fitted with a Leupold Mk 4 LR/T M3 10×40mm first focal plane fixed-power scope (see below).

Walther WA2000
The Walther WA2000 is a semi-automatic .308 Winchester Mag sniper rifle with a range of 700 meters. The weapon has a six-round magazine. The weapon comes standard with a 10x Schmidt and Bender scope (see below).

BG1's Edge
Both guns are evenly similar in terms of mag capacity and rounds but the M24 has the advantage in range (1200 yards = almost 1100m) and (debatable) weight. Therefore, it gets the edge.

Leupold Mk 4 LR/T M3 10×40mm First Focal Plane Fixed-Power
The M24 SWS is equipped with a fixed-power telescopic sight from American manufacturers Leupold & Stevens. The first number of the designation is the scope's magnification (10) and the second number in millimeters (40mm) is the diameter of the objective lens. A fixed power scope has only one magnification (e.g., 10×) therefore the lens is capable of only being set at 10 times magnification. The sight itself is an elongated-shape mil-dot wire reticle.

Schmidt and Bender 2.5-10x scope
The Walther WA-2000 was equipped with an adjustable telescopic sight made by German optics company Schmidt and Bender, capable of being set to anywhere between 2.5 and 10 times magnification. The sight has a mil-dot reticle, with multiple angular dots, one below another, moving out both horizontally and vertically from the crosshair. These dots allow for the user to estimate distance to a target and compensate for bullet drop and wind.

BG1's Edge
On the surface, the two scopes seem similar but the Leupold is fixed at one magnification whereas the Schmidt and Bender can be adjusted. The thing is though, at the end of the day, both have the same end magnification and both are essentially have the same mil dot. So for me, I'm calling this Even
