Undead RVD's Edges of.... Stuff
 * Hand Gun: A six shot revolver no longer used in combat vs a semi-automatic handgun still used in the military. Easy
 * EDGE: EPDA
 * Close Range: A hunting shotgun doesn't compare with a sub-machine pistol.
 * Edge: EPDA
 * Assault Rifle 1: All the AKM has going for it is it's durability. Otherwise, it sucks. The M4A1 Carbine, However, is very accurate and pretty reliable itself. It is an all around good weapon.
 * Edge: EPDA
 * Assault Rifle 2: I don't know much of either weapon so I'll go with what SPARTAN says.
 * EDGE: Wolverines
 * Sniper: The Savage 110 is a 4 round bolt action hunting rifle. Walther WA-2000 is a 6 round semi-automatic sniper rifle. The Walther WA-2000 takes it for it's semi-automatic nature and the fact it's a sniper rifle, not a hunting rifle.
 * EDGE: EPDA
 * Launchers. This one is dead even for me. The RPG-7 is stronger and faster but it's also heavier, a bit cumbersome and it's explosion, as shown on Mythbusters, goes in a forward motion to pierce armor, not an area of effect explosion like grenades. The M-203 is not as powerful but it's lightweight, can be put underneath a rifle without inconvenience and has an area of effect explosion.
 * EDGE: Even
 * Explosives: The Claymore is very deadly and makes for great traps, but best of all, it can't be thrown back, like the RGD-5 grenade.
 * EDGE: EPDA
 * VOTE: EPDA
 * The EPDA is packing better guns, have significantly better training and have armor. The Wolverines may have strength and experience, but based on the weapons, melee won't be a big factor and the Wolverines' experience won't help much when against the EPDA, who use different tactics than the Russians.
