User blog:BattleGames1/Deadliest Warrior Battle 3 - MACV-SOG vs SAS

MACV-SOG, the highly-classified black ops group that left the NVA quaking in their boots during the Vietnam War...

vs

The SAS, Britain's elite spec-op groups that operates on a worldwide basis protecting their Queen and Country...

'Who... is... DEADLIEST?'



Weapons
The famous Black Ops team bring to the table:

Personal Edges
Close combat: The SOG Knife is basically a Bowie knife with a few adjustments to it and is thus more brutal when it comes to slashing; the Fairbairn-Sykes Dagger on the other hand is a knife that performs like a stiletto thanks to its easier-to-grip handle and a larger blade. Those things being said however, this is a comparison between a 'slash-and-dash' knife vs a 'stab-and-grab' knife that I can't make out.

EDGE: Even

Short range: These two guns are similar in their dimensions but where the difference lies is in their weight and magazines - it is the S&W Model 39 that is lighter than the SIG Sauer, but the latter has more rounds in it (2 in fact).

EDGE: SIG Sauer P226

Medium Range: While the MAC-10 can put a lot more bullets into you with its very high rate of fire, the MP5 is that bit more powerful and it has a slightly larger magazine (either I can make it the 32-round box magazine or the 100-round drum magazine).

EDGE: H&K MP5

Long Range: While the PDW is more compact since it is lighter and shorter, it isn't near enough as powerful as the M16A1 nor is its as versatile (since the M16A1 has that strap around it)

EDGE: M16A1

Special: The M60 is much larger and fires larger rounds than the M249 but since it is a general purpose machine gun rather than a light machine gun (which is what the M249 SAW is), it isn't as versatile to use; also the M60 isn't as powerful as the M249 SAW

EDGE: M249 SAW

Explosive: Hmmm... The M203 is an attachment so that way if that fails, then you can switch back to the gun and continue firing your shots; as a separate weapon however, the China Lake delivers a lot more grenades at almost the same velocity as the launcher but these can go a lot further

EDGE: Even

Battle Notes
For this battle, the main setting is going to be like the 'Nazi SS vs Viet Cong' i.e. part woodland, part rainforest. And as you can see, its not a 5v5 battle but 6v6 - even so, I'll try my best to write up a good and fair battle.

With regards to votes, again votes are made through comments - and also, since I DIDN'T put up the X-Factors for each group, you can come up with the X-Factors and the appropriating ratings in your vote. Again, the voting lines are open until Sunday and then I'll post up the battle and the next DF briefing (and like last time, Friday I'll post up the next battle in line)
