Pistols: The Luger has the oblostee firing mechanism, but it is more powerfull than the Modele. I say it's dead even. EDGE: EVEN

SMG 1: Both guns have the same stats... but the MP18 utilizes a drum magazine which is more prone to jamming than the Sten. EDGE: DE GAULLE

SMG 2: The M3 is obviously more powerful, but the MP40 makes up for this by having a faster fire rate. I'd rather have fire rate over power in an SMG 'cause you're pretty much just spamming bullets at the enemy's torso. EDGE: DE GAULLE

Rifle 1: The Chiang rifle packs a bigger punch, but the Enfield reloads easily with clips that hold five rounds per clip. The Chiang rifle simply can't make up for this. EDGE: DE GUALLE

Rifle 2: The MAS is shorter and less accurate than the Mosin. These things ain't SMGs, so accuracy is more important. EDGE: DE GAULLE

LMG: The Bren is notorious for jamming frequently, but it also has a higher fire rate and magazine capacity. EDGE: EVEN

HMG: Does weight really matter if it is MOUNTED ON A JEEP? There is a reason why the MG42 is popular. It has a higher fire rate which is crucial to a machine gun. EDGE: DE GUALLE

Tactics: (I do not fear anons BTW so troll all you want with this) De Gualle was forced to go into Britan AND lost in Indochina. Chiang relied heavily on the US for supprt though. But my vote goes to Chiang EDGE: CHIANG

OVERALL WINNER: CHIANG KAI-SHEK

De Gaulle may have the superior weaponry, but the outcome of the battle does not only realy on that. Tactics, contrary to what Utternoob says, are key to winning a battle. There are numerous times in history when tactics won over superior weapons. Of course, you can't make a spear go against a gun head on, but if you use smart TACTICS you can avoid the barrel and go in for a kill from behind. I think Chiang would't even make much of an effort to kill De Gaulle.
