119's "Violence in Silence" Edges


 * Melee Weapons: I have to give this one to Fisher's combat knife, as it is actually designed to be used in a knife fight. Also, his training in Krav Maga will give him an edge in close combat, as Krav Maga involves training in practical close combat situations, such as how to quickly disarm an enemy with a knife or a firearm and turn their own weapon against them. Edge: Sam Fisher


 * Handguns: 47's Silverballers, otherwise known and the AMT Hardballer, have a total of 16 rounds. The Five-Seven has a 20-round magazine. Not to mention the Five Seven fires armor-piercing micro-rifle rounds, and the AMT Hardballer had reliability issues, though 47's Silverballers may have been customized to prevent this. Still, Edge: Sam Fisher


 * Assault Rifle: Both weapons are 5.56mm with a 30-round magazine, and both come with a silencer. Even.


 * Sniper Rifles: Normally, I'd give this to a WA-2000 for its greater range, however, in this case, they will be fighting inside a large indoor space, meaning maximum engagement ranges of about 200 meters. At this range, the superior capacity of the Vintorez, allowing for quick follow-up shots, will prove a valuable asset. Edge: Fisher


 * Explosives: I give this to the M67, as Fisher's OCP device could potentially disable 47's detonator and/or the receiver in the charge. The M67s have no such issue, and they produce more shrapnel. Edge: Fisher


 * Armor: 47 could do a lot in this scenario with disguises, he could pretend to be security and get into the back areas, or even disguise himself as a cosplayer of a character that uses a firearm, allowing him to carry around a gun in public (people might assume it's a replica, at least from a distance). That said, as effective as these disguises may be, when the shooting starts, Sam's armored suit will provide greater protection. Edge: Sam.


 * Special: I have to give this to Sam's goggles, as while 47's syringes give him an extra weapon, the goggles will let Sam see once he has taken out the lights, and target 47 when he's most vulnerable. Edge: Sam Fisher.


 * X-Factors: 47 takes Brutality and possibly stealth, and marksmanship is debatable. However, Fisher is an Ex-Navy SEAL, CIA, and NSA operative, meaning he has some of the best training in the world and a great deal of experience to boot. Also, Sam is much more skilled in close combat should things get up close and personal. Edge: Sam

Overall Winner: Sam Fisher. He has the winning combination of X-Factors and weapons that allow him to eliminate even a skilled assassin such as 47.
