Elgb's "19th Century Cold War" EDGES!!!

Melee: The tomahawk is neat since it can be thrown and all, but you can only do so much with it. Geronimo's tomahawk is limited to only swinging and push cuts. But Trotsky's spike bayonet has double the range when mounted on a barrel. And that long blade can puncture deeper and more lethal than a tomahawk. Trotsky also doesn not need to switch weapons wbetween a range and melee weapon. EDGE: Trostky

Sidearm: Both revolvers are fixed cylinders but the Nagant is clearly the more advanced weapon here. Sure the Colt has the bigger bullet, but the Nagant has twice the power with its gas seal design. It can be fired double action as well. EDGE: Trotsky

Rifle: Hard to decide on this one. The Winchester 1894 does have the larger magazine, faster rate of fire and the ability to be used more efficiently on horseback since its lever action. But the Mosin Nagant fires the more powerful spitzer round at a farther range, and can be reloaded using stripper clips for a faster reload. In the end, I'm not really sure that horses will be in abundance in this battle, and what's not to say that the Russians couldn't just keep their distance, take cover and shoot the riding Apaches. EDGE: Trotsky

Special Weapon: Native American bows were not really the best bows around with its puny range, but it can be fired faster. However, the grenades are a whole nother beast to deal with. That thing can take out enemies under cover, and even spook the horses if there is any. Its got both physical and psychological destruction. EDGE: Trotsky

X-Factors: In terms of x-factors it seems Geronimo would have taken it. He was an Apache warrior since he was young while Trostky started out as an academician and war correspondent. Geronimo definately fought against a wider variety of enemies since he had to deal against the American and Mexican military, civilian scouts, other tribes and even against rogue Apaches. Trotsky's military career was brutal as well but he was only limited to fighting his fellow Russians. Trotsky does have the advantagae in logistics but Geronimo takes everything else. EDGE: Geronimo

Deadliest Warrior?

Yeah Tybalt takes this in a well earned stomp. Geronimo does have the advantage in training and experience but in the end he just lacks the resources and equipment to go up against the might of the Soviet Revolutionary. Trotsky takes all the weapons edges since his guns are newer and better than Geronimo's antiquated firearm. Yeah sure Geronimo is better trained and more experienced, but you have to remember that Geronimo got his ass kicked in the end by soldiers and civilian scouts way younger and less experienced than him.

Couple that with the fact that Trotsky was a better strategist since he actually won his revolution than Geronimo, and there's no way Geronimo can win this.
