Short Range: Uruk-Hai Scimitar wins. While the arm blades sound (and look) cool, they're impractical for actual fighting. Bone is far weaker than steel, and if the Tarkata tries to parry, the blade would likely either break or the force of the blow would break his arm. Edge: Uruk-Hai.

Mid: They're pretty much the same, except the Mkrigga is harder to pull out. That almost gives it a loss, but it's an overall draw. Edge: none.

Long: Bow of Mordor wins. The Astrophetes is, for all intents and purposes, a one-shot weapon. It takes far too long to reload, giving the belly-bow a disadvantage. Edge: Uruk-Hai

Special: Pernach wins. It's kind of like the Scythian Axe vs the Ballista; Sure, the Ballista is a good weapon for what it was designed to do, but the Scythian Axe is better for one-on-one combat. Same thing with the Pernach vs Catapult, except the Pernach has more killing power. Edge: Tarkatan.

Overall: Tarkatan wins. The Seige Catapult will give too little kills for the Uruk-Hai's other weapons to make up for.
