User blog comment:YoungSamurai18/We Duel In the Shadows! Araluen Ranger Corps vs Dark Brotherhood/@comment-3189283-20180507210804

Lets see shall we

Close Range

Saxe Knife is double the length and almost double the weight of the Dagger and in a knife fight having the longer blade is always useful. They can also be thrown apparently so there's some extra utility to them as well.

Edge: Araluen Ranger Corps

Mid Range

Throwing Knives are cool and all but they require a fair amount of precision to be lethal and have to contend with the Dark Brotherhood's armour. The Sword is the simpler killing tool and makes up for the Dark Brotherhood's shorter knife to give them the reach advantage in close quarters.

Edge: Dark Brotherhood

Long Range

The Bows themselves are pretty much even so we have to look at other factors here. The Rangers are noted to be skilled archers in fact it seems as though that is there primary weapon and what they are best known for. The Dark Brotherhood meanwhile are not particularily noted archers sure some of there members might be skilled archers but that's just speculation, we know the Rangers are all going to be good archers. The Brotherhood does have their armour which increases damage from bows but again we don't have any idea if they are any good with them. The Rangers are the better bet here.
