=Courageous-class light battlecruiser (Royal Navy) vs Deutschland-class "pocket battleship" (Kriegsmarine)= The Courageous-class, British "large light cruisers" designed to keep up with light cruisers, but carry massive guns usually seen on battleships

VS

The Deutschland-class, German "Panzerschiffe", heavily armed and armored cruisers known to the Allies as "pocket battleships".

Only one can be the DEADLIEST WAR MACHINE!

=Courageous-class=

The Courageous class consisted of three battlecruisers known as "large light cruisers" built for the Royal Navy during World War I. The class was nominally designed to support the Baltic Project, a plan by Admiral of the Fleet Lord Fisher that was intended to land troops on the German Baltic Coast. Ships of this class were fast but very lightly armoured, with only a few heavy guns. They were given a shallow draught, in part to allow them to operate in the shallow waters of the Baltic but also reflecting experience gained earlier in the war. To maximize their speed, the Courageous-class battlecruisers were the first capital ships of the Royal Navy to use geared steam turbines and small-tube boilers.

The first two ships, Courageous and Glorious, were commissioned in 1917 and spent the war patrolling the North Sea. They participated in the Second Battle of Heligoland Bight in November 1917 and were present when the High Seas Fleet surrendered a year later. Their half-sister Furious was designed with a pair of 18-inch (457 mm) guns, the largest guns ever fitted on a ship of the Royal Navy, but was modified during construction to take a flying-off deck and hangar in lieu of her forward turret and barbette. After some patrols in the North Sea, her rear turret was removed and another flight deck added. Her aircraft attacked the Zeppelin sheds during the Tondern raid in July 1918.

All three ships were laid up after the war, but were rebuilt as aircraft carriers during the 1920s. Glorious and Courageous were sunk early in World War II and Furious was sold for scrap in 1948. (From Wikipedia) =Deutschland-class= The Deutschland class was a series of three Panzerschiffe ("armored ships"), a form of heavily armed cruiser, built by the Reichsmarine officially in accordance with restrictions imposed by the Treaty of Versailles. The class, which comprised the ships Deutschland, Admiral Scheer, and Admiral Graf Spee, were all stated to displace 10,000 long tons (10,000 t) in accordance with the Treaty, though they actually displaced 10,600 to 12,340 long tons (10,770 to 12,540 t) at standard displacement. Despite violating the weight limitation, the design for the ships incorporated several radical innovations to save weight. They were the first major warships to use welding and all-diesel propulsion. Due to their heavy armament of six 28 cm (11 in) guns, the British began referring to the vessels as "pocket battleships". The Deutschland class ships were initially classified as Panzerschiffe or "armored ships", but the Kriegsmarine reclassified them as heavy cruisers in February 1940.

The three ships were built between 1929 and 1936 by the Deutsche Werke and Reichsmarinewerft in Kiel and Wilhelmshaven, respectively. They saw heavy service with the German Navy. All three vessels served on non-intervention patrols during the Spanish Civil War. While on patrol, Deutschland was attacked by Republican bombers, and in response, Admiral Scheer bombarded the port of Almería. In 1937, Admiral Graf Spee represented Germany at the Coronation Review for Britain's King George VI. For the rest of their peacetime careers, the ships conducted a series of fleet maneuvers in the Atlantic and visited numerous foreign ports in goodwill tours.

Before the outbreak of World War II, Deutschland and Admiral Graf Spee were deployed to the Atlantic to put them in position to attack Allied merchant traffic once war was declared. Admiral Scheer remained in port for periodic maintenance. Deutschland was not particularly successful on her raiding sortie, during which she sank or captured three ships. She then returned to Germany where she was renamed Lützow. Admiral Graf Spee sank nine vessels in the South Atlantic before she was confronted by three British cruisers at the Battle of the River Plate. Although she damaged the British ships severely, she was herself damaged and her engines were in poor condition. Coupled with false reports of British reinforcements, the state of the ship convinced Hans Langsdorff, her commander, to scuttle the ship outside Montevideo. (From Wikipedia) =Weapons=

4x 15-inch guns (Courageous) and 2x 18-inch guns (Furious)
The main battery of the Courageous-class differed between the Courageous and Glorious and the Furious. The Courageous and Glorious were armed with four BL Mk I 15-inch (381mm) guns in two twin turrets. These guns fired a 1,938 pound (879 kg) shell with a range of up to 30,680 meters. With her four 15 inch guns, the Courageous fired a broadside of 3156 kg (7752 lbs).

The HMS Furious carried two BL Mk. 1 18-inch (460mm) guns, the largest guns ever mounted on a British warship, and second only the Japanese 18.1-inch guns mounted on the battleships Yamato and Musashi. The Furious 18-inch guns were carried in two turrets, and has a maximum range of 37,000 meters, but an effective range of only 28,700 meters. The guns fired a 3,320 pound (1,510 kg) shell, giving the Furious' two guns a broadside of 3020 kg (6640 lbs). In real life, the Furious never fired her 18-inch guns in anger, being removed when she was converted into an aircraft carrier, however, they were transferred to two Lord Clive-class monitors and used to bombard a German-controlled bridge in World War I.

6x 280mm (11-inch) guns (Deutshland-class)
The three Deutschland class ships were armed with a main battery of six 28 cm SK C/28 guns mounted in two triple turrets, one on either end of the superstructure.[8] The turrets were the Drh LC/28 type and allowed elevation to 40 degrees,[14] and depression to −8 degrees.[8] This provided the guns with a maximum range of 36,475 m (119,669 ft). They fired a 300 kg (660 lb) projectile at a muzzle velocity of 910 meters per second (3,000 ft/s).

119's Edge
This one is not as simple as looks. While the British ships both carried heavier guns, the Deutschland-class carried more guns, which, I might add, would still have been capable of penetrating the Courageous-class armor. Even

18x 4-inch (102mm) guns (Courageous) or 11x 5.5-inch guns (Furious)
The Courageous-class ships were designed with 18 BL 4-inch Mark IX guns, fitted in six triple mounts. These were manually powered and quite cumbersome in use as they required a crew of thirty-two men to load and train the guns. The gun's rate of fire was only 10 to 12 rounds per minute as the loaders kept getting in each other's way. They had a maximum depression of −10° and a maximum elevation of 30°. They fired a 22-pound (10.0 kg) high explosive shell at a muzzle velocity of 2,625 ft/s (800 m/s). At maximum elevation the guns had a maximum range of 13,500 yards (12,344 m). The ships carried 120 rounds for each gun.

Furious's secondary armament consisted of 11 BL 5.5-inch Mk I guns. The guns had a maximum elevation of 25° on their pivot mounts. They fired 82-pound (37 kg) projectiles at a muzzle velocity of 2,790 ft/s (850 m/s) at a rate of 12 rounds per minute. Their maximum range was 16,000 yd (15,000 m) at 25° elevation.

8x 150mm guns (Deutschland-class)
The secondary battery comprised eight 15 cm SK C/28 guns, each in single MPLC/28 mountings arranged amidships. These mountings allowed elevation to 35 degrees and depression to −10 degrees, for a range of 25,700 m (84,300 ft). They were supplied with a total of 800 rounds of ammunition, though later in their careers this was increased to 1,200 rounds. These shells weighed 45.3 kg (100 lb) and had a muzzle velocity of 875 m/s (2,870 ft/s). (From Wikipedia)

119's Edge
Initially, it may appear that the Courageous-class get the edge with their greater number of guns, however, this is not the case. The Deutschland-class's eight 150mm (5.9 inch) guns had a much greater range, twice that of the Furious' 5.5 inch guns, and fired a shell twice as large. Placing: First: Deutschland-class, Second: Furious, Third: Courageous

2x 21-inch torpedo tubes
The Courageous-class battlecruisers carried two submerged 21-inch torpedo tubes, one on each side, near the A-turret (front turret). The would have probably used Mark II torpedoes, with a 4.1km range at 45 knots, and 7.13 km range at 35 knots. The torpedo had a 400-515 lb warhead.

8x 21-inch (533mm) torpedo tubes
The ship carried a powerful weapon in the form of eight torpedo tubes in two four-shot deck-mounted launchers. These weapons fired the G7a torpedo, the standard issue torpedo on early-war German U-boats and surface ships. The weapon was an unguided torpedo with a speed of 30 knots and a maximum range of 12 kilometers.

119's Edge
The German torpedo tubes have a longer range and more tubes, meaning a faster rate of fire. Edge:Deutschland-class

=Statistics=

Explanations
In terms of firepower on an individual gun basis (see above), as well as the weight of shells in a broadside (also above), the main guns British ships take a definite edge. However, in terms of rate of fire (more guns=more shots before reload) and reserve ammunition, the Deutschland-class takes the edge. The German 11-inch guns also had a longer range than either of the British guns. On the other hand, in terms of armor, the Courageous-class has similar minimum armor to the Deutschland-class, but greater maximum armor- typically on the turrets and superstructure. The British also take an edge in terms of top speed, with a two-knot advantage over the Germans.

VS

Eddard Stark, the Lord of Winterfell, who wielded a massive, two-handed Valyrian steel longsword.

Two characters, one actor, but this time, only ONE of them will end up dead!

=Boromir=

Gondorian Arming Sword
Boromir's sword was like its owner: big, broad, and powerful. To use it single-handed required someone with great strength in the arm and wrist, both of which this skilled warrior had in abundance. It is a hand and a half sword meaning Boromir could wield it with one hand allowing him to use his shield and as a two handed sword. The blade was over three inches across at its widest point; it had a flattened diamond shape in section with an equally wide fuller in order to keep the weight down. However, the fuller ended some way short if the tip, thereby keeping as much strength in the end of the blade as possible. It was sharpened on both edges and tapered actually at the tip, which meant that it would have been equally effective for slashing against lightly armoured opponents.

The guard was the same shape as that on his father’s sword, as well as those on all Third Age Gondor-made swords. The handgrip was wide like the blade, matched to Boromir's hand, and the pommel was an elegant and simple piece of steel, again large to counterbalance the weight of this warrior's blade. The scabbard was wood covered in leather that had been decorated with crisscrossing strips of leather down its length together with a steel locket and an elegant steel chape that matched the shape of the pommel. It was attached directly to the belt that had been stamped with a delicate leaf pattern repeated along its length. It may be that this was a gift from his mother. (From LOTR wiki)

Dagger
=Eddard Stark=

Ice (Valyrian Steel greatsword)
Ned Stark's primary weapon was the Valyrian steel greatsword and an heirloom of House Stark known as Ice. The weapon appears to be about five-feet long, with a design similar to a claymore, with a blade about as wide as Ned Stark's hand at the hilt. The weapon is made of Valyrian steel, which is supernaturally strong, and does not lose its edge over time. The weapon is also much lighter than a regular blade of the same size thanks to its construction. It should be noted, however, as demonstrated by multiple fights featuring Jon Snow, that a Valyrian steel can still be defended against by a normal blade- it cannot, for instance, slice straight through another blade.

Shield
=Alan Wake (self-titled series) vs Michael Edwards (Eternal Darkness)= =Alan Wake= As a child, he had a fear of darkness. Alan was afraid of monsters in the dark, and would fight sleep to the bitter end out of fear. His mother gave him an old, used broken-off light-switch dubbed The Clicker. Every time he would flip the switch on it, a magical light would turn on and the monsters would vanish. Over time, he conquered his fear of darkness.

He never really knew his father and he would sit alone at playgrounds as a child, and pretend he didn't miss him. His mother had to raise him almost all of his life. At some point he met Barry Wheeler and they became close and true friends.

At one point, Alan became interested in writing. He became an avid reader of Stephen King and other horror writers, and then started writing his own stories using vivid imagination. Alan's first story, The Errand Boy, was published at a young age and he became famous after writing his next series of novels; a set of crime and suspense novels focused on a cynical Max-Payne-like cop named Alex Casey. With his lifelong friend Barry as his agent, Alan rose to becoming famous. But as he wrote more and more books, he gained a constant following of annoying fans and interfering paparazzi. He grew a temper, and then came under significant heat after he punched a journalist who wouldn't leave him alone.

At one point, Alan married a photographer named Alice. They lived together in a New York City apartment together at least as far back as three years prior to the Bright Falls incident. But as he finished his Alex Casey series, he began to suffer once more from writer's block and insomnia. There was trouble in their marriage, and Alan kept on coming home drunk from parties. The two got into many fights, with Alan constantly frustrated at his inability to write anything at all. =Michael Edwards= Michael Edwards was a Canadian industrial firefighter who, in 1991, was sent to help extinguish burning oil wells set on fire by the Iraqi troops under Saddam Hussein during the Gulf War. Edwards uses a charge of dynamite to blow out a fire by creating a powerful blast of air, however, as he does so, the dynamite detonates prematurely, killing Edward's collegues, McCormick and Patterson and causing the ground under Edwards to collapse, causing him to fall into an ancient temple to the Ancients, four mysterious extradimensional horrors older than humanity, Chattur'gha, Ulyaoth, Xellotath, and Mantarok. Edwards meets the ghost of a 15th century Italian architect named Roberto Bianchi, who was sacrificed to the Ancients centuries earlier. Bianchi gives Edwards the "essence" of one of the Ancients, the specific Ancient depends on the player's actions earlier in the game. Edwards is then attacked by a couple zombies, and quickly dispatches them with his fire axe. Nearby, Edwards finds the zombie's previous victim, a dead soldier, with a Glock 17 pistol and an (anachronistically placed) Heckler & Koch XM29 Objective Individual Combat Weapon combination assault rifle/grenade launcher. Arming himself with this heavy firepower, Edwards proceeds to shoot his way through hordes of the minions of an Ancient specified by the player's actions earlier in the game until he finds the Tome of Eternal Darkness, a mysterious book that chronicles previous people's encounters with Ancients, learning of the evil that lurks in the temple, as well as a number of powerful magic spells for healing wounds, supercharging weapons etc. Edwards later gets a hold of a C-4 charge and some blasting caps, and is instructed my a mysterious disembodied voice to set the charges in a room centered around a bridge of a deep pit. Edwards realizes that this will bring down the whole temple, and uses and "Enchant Item" spell he discovered in the Tome to supercharge the C-4, before setting the bomb. Edwards escapes before the bomb detonates, destroying the temple and killing all of the monsters within. Edwards later sends the "essence" and possibly some other items depending on the player's action to the home of Edward Roivas, where essence falls into the hands of Edward's daughter Alex, who uses it in the final battle of the game. =Weapons=

Beretta 92 (Alan)
The Beretta 92 is a series of 9x19 Parabellum firing pistols developed by the Italian company, Beretta. Based around older Beretta pistols, the 92 was first produced in 1975. The pistol has been modified to accompany larger rounds like the .40 S&W and fire in three round bursts, featured in the Beretta 93R. Dozens of countries have adopted the pistol and have been used by their police departments and armies. The M9 was specifically designed for the United States military and is popularly used because of its light weight, low recoil, accuracy, and fast rate of fire. Alan's Beretta has a 10-round magazine, the smallest available for the weapon, and is chambered for 9mm.

Glock 17 (Mike)
The Glock handgun series is one of the most modern firearms available on the market to civilians, coming into service in the 1980's. It fires the standard 9x19mm Parabellum round, but can fire other rounds, depending on the variation of the gun. It is widely used by police and paramilitary forces and is popular with noncombatants due to its ease of use and handling. Mike's Glock is a 9mm (Glock 17) with a 17-round magazine.

119's Edge
Mike's Glock 17 for its superior capacity.

M16A1 (Alan)
The M16 (officially Rifle, Caliber 5.56 mm, M16) is the United States military designation for the AR-15 rifle adapted for semi-automatic, three-round burst and full-automatic fire. Colt purchased the rights to the AR-15 from ArmaLite, and currently uses that designation only for semi-automatic versions of the rifle. Alan's M16 is an A1 model with a non-standard 25-round magazine. The M16 has a rate of fire of 750-900 rpm and a range of 500 meters for a point target and 800m for an areas target.

XM-29 OICW KE Module (Mike)
The XM29 OICW (Objective Individual Combat Weapon) was a series of prototypes of a new type weapons combining an assault rifle with a grenade launcher that fired 20 mm HE airbursting projectiles. Ultimately the project was shelved in favor of the Heckler & Koch XM8 and Heckler & Koch XM25, of the two only the XM25 was continued. The KE (kinetic energy) module of the OICW consisted of a Heckler and Koch G-36 assault rifle, a 5.56mm weapon with a range of up to 800 meters, and a rate of fire of 800 rpm. The weapon was fed with a 30-round magazine and carried a 6x scope with laser rangefinder and thermal and night vision settings.

119's Edge
Mike's OICW KE Module for its superior optics, range, and magazine capacity.

AA-12 (Alan)
The Auto Assault-12 (AA-12), originally designed and known as the Atchisson Assault Shotgun, is a shotgun developed in 1972 by Maxwell Atchisson. The current 2005 version has been developed over 18 years since the patent was sold to Military Police Systems, Inc. The original design was the basis of several later weapons, including the USAS-12. The weapon is selective fire, operating as a semi-automatic, or in fully automatic mode at 300 rounds per minute. It is fed from either an 8-shell box magazine, or a 20- or 32-shell drum magazine. Alan's AA12 has an 8-shell magazine firing buckshot.

XM-29 HE Module
The XM29 OICW (Objective Individual Combat Weapon) was a series of prototypes of a new type weapons combining an assault rifle with a grenade launcher that fired 20 mm HE airbursting projectiles. Ultimately the project was shelved in favor of the Heckler & Koch XM8 and Heckler & Koch XM25, of the two only the XM25 was continued. The HE (high explosive) module consisted of the 20mm "smart grenade" launcher, with rounds designed to detonate at the distance set using the range finder, or simply to explode on impact. The weapon has an effective range of about 500 meters, with the projectiles trajectory acting more like that of a light cannon shell than a conventional grenade launcher, with the round flying on a straight path.

119's Edge
Mike's XM29 HE Module for its longer range and greater firepower.

=Kouta Hirano (HOTD), Ann Matsura (BC:BA), and Shino Asada (SAO II) vs 200 Crossed=   Kouta Hirano, the gun otaku who became a lethal zombie-slaying sniper of an outbreak of the living dead. 

Ann Matsura, the girl in a JSDF JROTC-like program in the 2020s, who proved to be a deadly sniper in a fight against a rogue PMC.   Shino "Sinon" Asada, the Japanese girl who became a deadly sniper in a virtual reality as part of a fight against her own inner demons. 

Three ordinary young men and women who became some of anime's deadliest snipers, but will they stand up to the onslaught of....

=Survivors=

Kouta Hirano
Kouta Hirano was a somewhat overweight gun otaku attending Fujimi High School, until the outbreak of a zombie virus forced him to flee the school along with Saya Tayagi, a girl in his year. Kouta armed himself with a nailgun he modified into a crude handgun, making his escape along with Saya, soon joined by fellow students Takashi Komuro, Saeko Busujima, Rei Miyamoto, and school nurse Shizuka Marikawa. The group of survivors made their way to the home Marikawa, which she shared with her roommate, an SAT sniper named Rika Minami. Kouta got a hold of an AR-10 and an Ithaca shotgun and proved highly skilled at killing the undead from a range. Kouta revealed that he befriended a Blackwater Mercenary during a trip to the U.S, who taught him how to shoot.

AR-10T
The AR10T DMR is a semi automatic rifle firing 7.62mm rounds from a 10 or 20 round magazine. The 7.62mm round has a muzzle velocity of about 850 meters per second. While I could not find data on the range of the AR-10T, but the similar M110 Semi Automatic Sniper System has an effective range of 800 meters. Kouta's AR10T is equipped with a high magnification scope.

Heckler and Koch MP5FSK
The Heckler and Koch MP5 is a submachine gun chambered for the 9mm round. Since the 1960s, the weapon has been popular around the world and is currently a popular weapon used by law-enforcement agencies, special forces groups, and terrorists. The MP5SFK is a semi-automatic only version of the MP5, with the same 32-round magazine, intended for law enforcement use in situation where greater firepower than a handgun is required, but full auto fire would result in inaccurate fire, potentially hitting bystanders. Kouta's MP5SFK has a suppressor, red dot sight, tactical flashlight, and UMP-Style stock.

Luger P08 w/stock and extended mag
The Pistole Parabellum 1908 or Parabellum-Pistole (Pistol Parabellum) — popularly known as the Luger — is a toggle-locked recoil-operated semi-automatic pistol. The design was patented by Georg J. Luger in 1898 and produced by German arms manufacturer Deutsche Waffen- und Munitionsfabriken (DWM) starting in 1900; it was an evolution of the 1893 Hugo Borchardt designed C-93. The first Parabellum pistol was adopted by the Swiss army in May 1900. In German army service it was succeeded and partly replaced by the Walther P38 in caliber 9x19mm.

The Luger is well known from its use by Germans during World War I and World War II, along with the interwar Weimar Republic and the post war East German Volkspolizei. Although the Luger pistol was first introduced in 7.65×21 mm Parabellum, it is notable for being the pistol for which the 9×19 mm Parabellum (also known as the 9 mm Luger) cartridge was developed.

The Luger used by both Kouta and Saya Takagi in the manga is a Dutch Artillery Model, with a long-barrel, 32-round drum and stock attachment, which the give the weapon an increased effective range, up to about 100 meters.

Ann Matsura
The daughter of a rock star and a ceramic artist, Ann's parents were both staunch pacifists. When Ann had a falling out with her family, she left home and enrolled in Eastern Private Defense Academy in an effort to distance herself from them. Ann generally was satisfied with life at the academy, proving herself to be a skilled markswoman, an attribute that would prove useful against the Trident mercenaries. Ann's mother is a foreigner, thus her English name. Ann has known Youji Takatsu since childhood, and in spite of their occasional arguing, are actually close friends, and by the end of their ordeal together, possibly more.

Walther WA-2000
The Walther WA-2000 is a semi-automatic 7.62mm sniper rifle with a range of 700 meters. The weapon has a five-round magazine. Because of high production costs and sales shortfalls, only 176 were ever produced, and surviving rifles are routinely at over $20,000.

Steyr TMP
The Steyr TMP is an Austrian machine pistol, for the purposes of this match, in 9mm with a 30-round magazine. The weapon has a range of 100 meters and rate of fire of 850-900 rpm.

Heckler and Koch USP
The Heckler & Koch USP is a semi-automatic pistol made by the famous Heckler & Koch. The weapon was designed primarily for US law enforcement agencies and for the civilian market. The pistol is short recoil operated and fires the 9x19 Parabellum, .357 SIG, .40 S&W, and the .45 ACP. For the purpose of this match, Ann's will be .45 version with a 12-round magazine.

Claymore Mines (already placed)
The M18 Claymore mine is a remote-detonated directional mine filled with ball bearings that, when detonated, shoot out in one direction, like a giant shotgun blast. The weapon has an effective range of about 50 meters. Ann will have placed them in two lines, one about 50 meters from the entrance, and one inside the structure, near the stairs up the observation deck. While Ann has placed the mines, any survivor can detonate them.

Shino Asada
'''Note: Shino will have her real life appearance, but she will be physically strong enough to lift the Hecate without too much difficulty (not quite as easily as she does in the virtual reality, for instance, she won't be able to jump with it). Shino's health will follow "real world" logic, i.e. a single bullet wound in the right place, regardless of caliber, has the potential to be fatal).'''

Shino Asada is a major character in the second season of Sword Art Online, and a player of the virtual reality MMOFPS Gun Gale Online. Shino played the game in order to overcome her phobia of both firearms and, to a lesser extent, men, stemming from an incident in her past. When she was in fifth grade, Shino and her mother were caught up in a bank robbery, where a man armed with a Type 54 handgun threatened the bank teller and shot him when he attempted to a sound an alarm. The man then took Shino's mother hostage. Shino's mother had been psychologically weak since she saw her husband and Shino's father die in a car accident two years earlier. Since then, Shino had become protective of her mother, and attacked the gunman, biting his hand and causing him to drop the handgun. Shino then seized the weapon and shot the man three times with his own gun, killing him with the third shot to the head at point blank range. When Shino turned to her mother, she simply stared in shock and horror at the whole event, and Shino realized she literally hand blood on her hands.

For years afterward, Shino was plagued by nightmares about the event, where her attacker returned from the dead and murdered her, as well as the previously mentioned phobia of guns, to the point where she could suffer a panic attack or even collapse simply by seeing a gun in a film or photograph. This made her a frequent target of bullies, who realized they could cause her to seize up simply by acting as though they are pointing a gun at her. Shino was introduced to VR gaming by Shinkawa Kyouji, who suggested it as a means of desensitizing her from her fear of firearms. Shino, under the screen named Sinon, became one of the most skilled players in Gun Gale Online, armed with her PGM Hecate II anti-material rifle.

In late 2024, Shino faces Kazuto "Kirito" Kirigaya in the "Bullet of Bullets" tournament, and ties with him for the winner, as well as aiding him in his investigation of the "Death Gun", a mysterious player who wielded as weapon supposedly capable of killing a person in real life from within the game. It is later revealed that the "Death Gun" murders are the work of Kyouji and Shouichi Shinkawa, one of whom would control the avatar of the character, and the other would kill the person in real life through the injection of a paralytic directly into the heart. Kyouji attempts to murder both Kirito and Shino in this manner after Shino refuses his advances, and almost succeeds with Kirito, if not for him still wearing a metal electrode from while he was in the VRMMO from within a hospital under close monitoring, on his chest, which blocked the injector. Shino then subdues Kyouji and both Kyouji and Shouiji are subsequently arrested for their crimes.

PGM Hecate
The PGM Hecate II is a French bolt-action anti-materiel rifle chambered for the .50 BMG round. The weapon has a much longer range than a conventional sniper rifle, up to 1800 meters or more, and is effective against lightly armored targets such as trucks, jeeps, helicopters, parked aircraft, radar sites, etc. The Hecate, however, is also very heavy, weighing it at over 14 kilograms, or over 30 pounds when loaded and equipped with a scope. The Hecate has a seven-round magazine.

Glock 18 Select Fire
In the anime, Shino uses a Glock 18 selective fire handgun, capable of semi or full auto fire, as a sidearm. The Glock 18 is a selective fire version of the Glock pistol, capable of semi or fully automatic with a rate of fire of up to 1100-1200 rpm. The weapon has a muzzle velocity of 375 meters per second and an effective range of 50 meters. The Glock 18 fires 9mm ammunition from a 33-round magazine.

Type 54 Pistol
The Type 54 "Black Star" pistol is a Chinese copy of the Tokarev named for the Black Star engraved on the grip. The Tokarev TT-33 was a Soviet-designed 7.62 x 25mm semi-automatic handgun designed in 1930 as a replacement for the old M1895 Nagant revolver. The weapon saw service in the Second World War with the Red Army and by various other factions afterwards. The weapon is still in used by various factions around the world even though it was replaced by the Makarov in Soviet service starting in 1952. The weapon fires from a seven-round magazine and has a range of about 50 meters.

The Survivor's Home Base/Scenario
The three survivors will be holed up the National Maritime Museum on Odaiba Island in Tokyo, a large boat-shaped structure shaped like a ship with a clear area around it on all sides. Specifically, they will be on top of the observation tower. They will be well-stocked, with enough ammunition, food, water, generator fuel etc to hold out, as well as a few other items, such as flashlights, cooking equipment, camping gear etc. They will also have a generator rigged to power an old ship's floodlight (they are in a maritime museum) for use in spotting zombies at night, as well as a few flashlights, but will not have night vision equipment. The lower floors and entrances of the museum will be fortified with boards, shelves, and stacked items, which will hold for a while, but not stand up to repeated attack. The final line of defense be a barricade similar to the others on both the top and bottom of the staircase up to the observation deck. Holes will have been broken into the windows for firing ports and venting generator exhaust. Also, there will be a bunch of potential melee weapons such as axes and hammers in the home base at the top of the tower.

The area is about 600 meters from a shopping mall to the east, 400 meters from the cluster of buildings to the NE, 150 meters from a cluster of buildings to the south and southeast, and 350 meters from a tunnel running into a channel separating the island from the mainland to the west. These are the most likely directions the Crossed will come from, and from all of them, they will have cover along the route. The Crossed my also attack in boats from the channel to the west.

In three days time, a JSDF helicopter will come to rescue any survivors. It will land on either the helipad of museum ship moored next to the museum itself, or in a nearby parking lot. The helicopter will be equipped with miniguns on pintle mounts to cover the vehicle while landed and to support the survivors if possible. =The Crossed= The Crossed story follows survivors dealing with a plague that causes its victims to carry out their most evil thoughts. Carriers of the virus are known as the Crossed due to a cross-like rash that appears on their faces. This contagion is primarily spread through bodily fluids, which the Crossed have used to great effect by treating their weapons with their fluids, as well as through other forms of direct fluidic contact such as rape and bites, assuming the victim lives long enough to turn. A major difference between the Crossed and other fictional zombie or insanity-virus epidemics (i.e. in the film 28 Days Later), is that while the Crossed are turned into homicidal violent psychopaths, they still retain a basic human-level of intelligence: thus they are still capable of using firearms, motor vehicles, tools like bows and arrows, and of setting complex traps.

The contagion spread across the entire world, with the Crossed killing, raping, engaging in cannibalism and maiming for fun, with governments and military overwhelmed; friends and family butcher each other with anything they lay their hands on, and cities are turned into vast charnel houses. Much of the Middle East is wiped out when Israel deploys nuclear weapons. The last organized act by the US government is to shut down as many nuclear power plants as possible and then kill the nuclear scientists & technicians to prevent them from reactivating the plants. One by one the remaining military bases are overrun. Soon human civilization is all but gone, and mankind is an increasingly endangered species.

Composition

 * Total Number: 500


 * Melee Only (axes, hammers, crowbars, chainsaws, swords, etc): 300


 * Non-Firearm Ranged (include bows, crossbows, hand grenades, molotovs etc): 100


 * Total Firearm: 100
 * Short range Firearm (pistols, shotguns, SMGs, dangerous to ~100 meters): 100
 * Mid-Range Firearm: (hunting rifles, assault rifles etc, dangerous at up to ~400 meters): 40
 * Long Range: (sniper rifles, dangerous to about 1000 meters): 10


 * No Crossed will have heavy weapons like rocket launchers etc.


 * Potential vehicles include civilian cars, trucks, construction equipment, speedboats, ferries etc. There will be NO Crossed in military vehicles or aircraft, and they will not be able to operate any boats or ships larger than a small ferry or waterbus.


 * Note: The Crossed will not attack in one massive horde. Initially, they will come in small groups, and the survivors will be able to delay the arrival of the hordes by killing off these "scouting parties" before they can lead more Crossed to their position, however, eventually, they will draw the attention of more Crossed, and will have to face hordes. The helicopter rescue will be a particularly large draw event from the Crossed.

Physiology and Psychology

 * The Crossed can be killed the same way as a normal human, meaning that a headshot will not be required to bring them down. HOWEVER, they constantly have high levels of adrenaline in their system, meaning they are at at constant above average human strength and speed. The Crossed are also incapable of feeling fear or pain, meaning they will keep attacking unless they are dealt fatal damage, so, while headshots are not the only way to kill them, they are probably the most efficient.


 * The Crossed are, as stated above, fully sapient, if sociopathic, and can use any weapon they possessed the knowledge to use before they turned, including firearms and vehicles. The Crossed are also concious of the virus and will attempt to transmit the virus through bites, covering their weapons in their bodily fluids, or even by committing rape.


 * The Crossed virus brings out sadistic urges in the infected, meaning they will often torture, mutilate, and/or rape their victims before killing them.

=X-Factors=

Explanations
Of the survivors, Kouta is obviously in the worst physical condition and has the lowest agility score, though he partially makes up for this with high levels of marksmanship and some training from a Blackwater operative he befriended in America. Ann takes the highest score for marksmanship and training as she was part of a JROTC-like military program. Shino comes in last in training as she played a virtual reality game, which was very realistic at least in terms of the function of the weapon, apparent recoil, and, at least to a degree, ballistics, but still had numerous features that made it very different from firing a real gun. In terms of physical strength, Ann is probably the highest with the PT regimen at Eastern Private Defense Academy, however, she is still a teenager, and thus, no doubt outclassed by the mostly adult, adrenaline-doped Crossed. All in all, the Crossed prove superior in physical strength and pain tolerance, which will prove useful at close range, however, this fight is likely to take place mostly at long ranges. However, the odds are evened up by the fact that there are 500 Crossed and only three survivors. =Keiichi Maebara vs Maebara (Bloody Maiden)=

Explosives
=Third Recon Team (Gate) vs Unnamed SS Patrol (Sturmgeschütz and Sorcery)= =Third Recon Team= The 3rd Special Recon Team is a Japanese Self-Defense Force team of 13 soldiers, formed after a portal to a fantasy world appeared in Tokyo and Roman-like army came out and attacked. The attack, however, was easily repulsed by the technologically superior Japanese Self-Defense Force. The JSDF then launched a counterattack through the portal, crushing the Imperial Army, killing over 100,000 of them with machine guns, tanks, and Cobra gunships. The Special Recon Team was formed with the mission of exploring the vast new world, designated the "Special Region" and making contact with the locals. The team soon discovers a village burned the by a dragon, and rescue the lone survivor, an elvish girl named Tuka Luna Marceau. The 3rd Recon Team later makes contact with a convoy of carts and wagons carrying refugees from conflicts in the area in the wake of the power vaccuum after the destruction of the Imperial Army. The dragon returns and attacks the convoy surviving even .50 caliber machine gun fire, but its eyes prove vulnerable. The Recon Team then shoots the dragon with a Panzerfaust 3. The shot was off, not killing the dragon, but still managing to blow its leg off. The dragon then retreats, severely wounded, much to the amazement of the refugees. The 3rd Recon team later encounters two other allies from the new world, a young sorceress in training named Lelei La Lalena and Rory Mercury, a priestess of a war god and self-proclaimed 900+ year old demigoddess known for fighting with a berserker rage with her gigantic battle axe.

M9 Bayonet
The M9 Bayonet is a knife bayonet that can double as a combat knife. The weapon can be used mounted onto the end of a rifle (such as the M4 or Howa Type 64), or on its own as a knife. The bayonet has a seven-inch blade.

SIG Sauer P220
The SIG Sauer P220 features a family of pistols based upon the design of the P220. The pistols of this series are semi-autmoatic and fires the 9x19 Parabellum, .45 ACP, and .30 Luger. The series is currently manufactured by Sauer & Sohn and is released from Eckernförde, Germany. The weapon is recoil operated and has a magazine capacity of 7, 9 ,or 10 rounds. The pistol was designed to replace the ex-Swiss standard firearm, the SIG P210. Currently, the pistol family is being used by 18 different countries, in dozens of different military and law-enforcement departments. The weapons series is still in service since 1975. For the purposes of this match, the SIG will have a ten-round magazine

Heckler and Koch MP7
The MP7 is a German submachine gun manufactured by Heckler & Koch (H&K) and chambered for the HK 4.6×30mm cartridge. The weapon has a rate of fire of fire of 950 rpm, and a range of 200 meters. The weapon comes standard with a 20-round magazine.

Howa Type 64
The Howa Type 64 (64式自動小銃 Rokujuu-yon-shiki-jidou-shoujuu?), is a Japanese battle rifle used exclusively by the Japan Self-Defense Forces and the Japanese Coast Guard replacing the M1 Garand but later replaced by the Howa Type 89. The weapon fires a 7.62mm NATO round and has an effective range of 400 meters. The Type 64 has a rate of fire of 500 rpm in full auto.

FN Minimi/M249 SAW
The Fabrique Nationale Minimi short for "Mini Mitrailleuse" (French: mini machine gun), is a Belgian 5.56mm NATO light machine gun designed as a squad-level fire support weapon. A variant of the weapon is used by the United States Armed Forces under the designation M249 Squad Automatic Weapon. The weapon has a rate of fire of 700-1150 rounds per minute depending on model and a range of up to about a kilometer. The weapon is fed from 200-round linked ammuntion belts or, in an emergency, 30-round STANAG magazine.

Browning M2
The M2 Machine Gun, Browning .50 Caliber Machine Gun, is a heavy machine gun designed towards the end of World War I by John Browning. It is very similar in design to Browning's earlier M1919 Browning Machine Gun, which was chambered for the .30-06 cartridge. The M2 uses the much larger and much more powerful .50 BMG cartridge, which was developed alongside and takes its name from the gun itself (BMG standing for Browning Machine Gun). The M2 has been referred to as "Ma Deuce", or "the fifty" in reference to its caliber. The design has had many specific designations; the official designation for the current infantry type is Browning Machine Gun, Cal. .50, M2, HB, Flexible. It is effective against infantry, unarmored or lightly armored vehicles and boats, light fortifications and low-flying aircraft. The weapon has an effective range of 1800 meters and a rate of fire of up to 625 rounds per minute. The M2 can penetrate 22mm of armor at 100 meters and 19mm at 500m with armor piercing ammo. For the purposes of this match, the weapon will be loaded with a combination of ball, tracer, and armor-piercing ammunition.

M67 Fragmentation Grenade
The M67 fragmentation grenade is the current standard issue hand grenade for the United States and other military forces worldwide. The grenade was first issued in the 1970s, replacing the M26 and M61 grenades used during the Vietnam War. The grenade is activated by pulling the safety pin and then throwing the grenade. Pulling the pin releases the safety lever or "spoon", however, the spoon should be held in place by the users hand until the grenade is thrown, at which point the spoon releases, activating the fuse.

Panzerfaust 3
The Panzerfaust 3 is a modern German-made rocket launcher that entered service with the Bundeswehr in 1992, not the be confused with the WWII-era Panzerfaust. The weapon has a range of 920 meters, at which point it will self destruct, though the effective range is typically much shorter. The Panzerfaust 3 can use a variety of warheads, including hollow charge, tandem charge, and anti-bunker warheads. The weapon is equipped with a scope for greater accuracy.

Mitsubishi Type 73 Light Truck
The Mitsubishi Type 73 Light Truck (73式小型トラック 73-shiki kogata torakku?) is a series of military light trucks that are used as mini SUVs in the JSDF. They have been under production by Mitsubishi Motors since 1973. In JSDF service, it is officially known as the 1/2 Ton Truck. They are powered by Mitsubishi-made 4-cylinder diesel engines with a total of 123 horsepower (From Wikipedia).

The Type 73 will, for the purposes of this match, carry an M249 SAW.

Komatsu LAV
The Komatsu LAV (Japanese: 軽装甲機動車; kei-sōkō-kidōsha?), first produced in 2002, is used exclusively by the Japanese Self-Defense Forces, and has seen use in the Iraq War. It is built by Komatsu Ltd. Defense Systems Division in Komatsu, Ishikawa, Japan. Komatsu's factory designator for the vehicle is KU50W.

The exterior resembles the Panhard VBL, used by the French army, but the LAV has 4 doors and a large cabin for carrying soldiers. The LAV can also be transported by air in vehicles like the CH-47J and the C-130H. (From Wikipedia)

The vehicle has a 160 horsepower 4 cylinder diesel engine, giving it a top speed in excess of 100 kilometers per hour (70 mph) on a paved road, allowing it to travel on major highways, while still maintaining the capability to travel off-road. The vehicle is also equipped with run-flat tires, and has high ground clearance and a low turning radius for off-road driving. The vehicle is armored against standard small-arms calibers such as 5.56mm and 7.62mm.

The Third Recon Team's LAV is a version modified for service with Japan's Iraq Intervention Group. The vehicle has a 360-degree armored gunshield that at least partially protects the gunner (though he would have to get off the gun and lower himself into the vehicle to protect his entire body), as well as the standard forward gunshield. The vehicle will be armed with a Browning M2 .50 caliber machine gun.

Toyota High Mobility Vehicle
The Toyota High Mobility Vehicle, also known as the HMV, the Koukidousha, or by the name of the civilian version, the Mega Cruiser, as a large SUV used by the JSDF as a troop and materiel transport. The vehicle is very similar in appearance to the Humvee. The vehicle has a 150 horsepower 4-cylinder diesel engine, as well as 16-inches of ground clearance. The Toyota used by the Third Recon Team will mount an M249 SAW in a top turret.

Force Composition
=SS Patrol= Sturmgeshutz and Sorcery was a tabletop role-playing game created in the 1970s. Overall, the game was similar to other tabletop RPGs such as Dungeons and Dragons, with the exception of the fact that one of the players controlled a unit of Waffen SS mysteriously transported into a fantasy world. The world they SS unit was transported to was ruled by an "Evil High Priest", who had armies of warriors and powerful wizards and creatures at his command.
 * 13 Total (10 bayoneted Howa, 2 MP7/Panzerfaust 3, some with SIG Sidearm, 1 M249/SIG)
 * Toyota Mega Cruiser (M249 SAW)
 * Mitsubishi Light Truck (M249 SAW)
 * Komatsu LAV (Browning M2)

While the exact composition of the force varied from scenario to scenario, this page refers to an SS recon unit consisting of about 30 men, 20 or so of them as infantry and the rest being vehicle crews or officers. The unit has four vehicles, a Leichter Panzerspahwagen armored car, a two half tracks, and an unarmed VW Kubelwagen staff car. The infantry in the unit were armed with standard-issue German military equipment of the Second War War, including Luger pistols, Mauser K98K rifles, MP40 submachine guns, MG-34 machine guns, Panzerfausts, and Stielhandgranate grenades.

Kampfmesser 42
The Kampfmesser 42 was the standard-issue bayonet used by the German Army during the Second World War, designed to be used both mounted on a rifle, or in the hand as a fighting knife. The Kampfmesser could also be used as a throwing knife. The Kampfmesser was longer than most bayonets, making it particularly effective as a fighting knife.

Luger P08
The Pistole Parabellum 1908 or Parabellum-Pistole (Pistol Parabellum) — popularly known as the Luger — is a toggle-locked recoil-operated semi-automatic pistol. The design was patented by Georg J. Luger in 1898 and produced by German arms manufacturer Deutsche Waffen- und Munitionsfabriken (DWM) starting in 1900; it was an evolution of the 1893 Hugo Borchardt designed C-93. The first Parabellum pistol was adopted by the Swiss army in May 1900. In German army service it was succeeded and partly replaced by the Walther P38 in caliber 9x19mm.

The Luger is well known from its use by Germans during World War I and World War II, along with the interwar Weimar Republic and the post war East German Volkspolizei. Although the Luger pistol was first introduced in 7.65×21 mm Parabellum, it is notable for being the pistol for which the 9×19 mm Parabellum (also known as the 9 mm Luger) cartridge was developed. The Luger will, for the purposes of this match, have an 8-round magazine.

MP-40
The MP 40 was a 9mm submachine gun developed by Nazi Germany and used by troops during World World II. It was often used by paratroopers and officers in the German military during World War II. The MP 40 was a open-bolt, blowback operated automatic gun. The weapon had a rate of fire of 500 rpm and a range of about 70-100 meters.

Kar. 98K
The Karabiner98k was the standard service rifle of the German military from 1935-1945. It was a bolt-action rifle with an internal magazine. 7.92mm rounds could be loaded with a five-round stripper clip or loaded singly into the magazine by hand. Various attachments such as grenade launchers, suppressors, and bayonets could be attached to the Karabiner 98k. It became at a disadvantage to Allied forces during World War II due to it's bolt-action slowing down the rate of fire. The weapon had a maximum effective range of 500m with iron sights.

MG-34
The Maschinengewehr 34, or MG 34, is a German recoil-operated air-cooled machine gun that was first produced and accepted into service in 1934, and first issued to units in 1935. It accepts the 7.92×57mm Mauser cartridge. The weapon had a rate of fire of 800-900 rpm, and a 50 or 250 round belt. For the purposes of this match, the vehicle mounted versions will use 250 round belts, and the infantry-held MG-42 will use 50-round belts.

Kwk-30 20mm Autocannon
The 2 cm KwK 30 L/55 (2 cm Kampfwagenkanone 30 L/55) was a German 2 cm cannon used primarily as the chief weapon of the German SdKfz.121 Panzerkampfwagen II light tank. It was used in vehicles that saw action in the Spanish Civil War, and the Second World War. The weapon could fire either high explosive rounds for infantry and soft-skinned vehicles, and armor-piercing rounds capable of penetrating up to 40mm of armor. The SS patrol will have one on their SdKfz.222 Leichter Panzerspähwagen light armored car.

Panzerfaust
The Panzerfaust (lit. "armor fist" or "tank fist", plural: Panzerfäuste) was a cheap, recoilless German anti-tank weapon of World War II. It consisted of a small, disposable preloaded launch tube firing a high explosive anti-tank warhead, and was operated by a single soldier. The Panzerfaust was in service from 1942 until the end of the war. The weapon had an effective range of 60 meters.

Flammenwerfer 41
The Flammenwerfer 41 was a German flamethrower of the Second World War, introduced in 1941. It could project fuel up to 32m from the user [1] and weighed 28.7 kilograms (63 lb), and held 11.8 litres (2.6 imp gal; 3.1 US gal) of a mixture of tar and petrol called Flammöl 19 that was ignited by a hydrogen torch providing about 10 seconds of continuous use. Tar was used in the fuel to give the weapon better range by making it heavier. The firing device is activated at the same time with the Selbstschlussventil and is inside the protective pipe. During the earlier stages of its service life, the trigger and muzzle section of the Flammenwerfer were dressed up to look like a standard infantry rifle in an attempt to disguise operators and keep them from being singled out by enemy snipers. For the purpose of this match, the weapon will have such a disguise, though the fuel tanks will obviously still be visible from the sides and rear.

Model 24 Stielhandgranate
The Model 24 grenade was the standard hand grenade of the German Army from 1915-1945, from the end of World War I to the end of World War II. The grenade was activating by unscrewing a cap and pulling a cord, which lit the fuse. It was not a fragmentation grenade because it relied on the blast to kill. Because of its design, the stick could act as a lever which greatly improved throwing distance, up to 40 yards, where as the British grenades of the time could only be thrown up to 15 yards. Like most hand grenades, was extremely effective against entrenched positions, but not against armor (unless the grenade was thrown directly into the interior of an armored vehicle). The weapon had a blast radius of 12-14 yards

SdKfz.222 Leichter Panzerspähwagen x1
The Leichter Panzerspähwagen (German: roughly "light armoured reconnaissance vehicle") were a series of light four-wheel drive armoured cars produced by Nazi Germany from 1935 to 1944.

They were developed by Eisenwerk Weserhütte of Bad Oeynhausen by using the chassis of type Horch 108 standard heavy off-road car with an angled armoured body and turret.

Chassis were built by Horch (Auto Union) in Zwickau and assembled by F. Schichau of Elbing and Maschinenfabrik Niedersachsen in Hanover-Linden.

The rear-mounted petrol engine was a 3.5 Litre Horch V8 with 75 PS (55 kW; 74 hp) (Ausf. A chassis); from 1942 on 3.8 Litre with 90 PS (66 kW; 89 hp) (Ausf. B chassis), giving it a road speed of 80 km/h (50 mph) and a cross-country speed of 40 km/h (25 mph). It had a maximum range of 300 km (186 mi).

Used by the reconnaissance battalions (Aufklärungs-Abteilung) of the Panzer divisions, the type performed well enough in countries with good road networks, like those in Western Europe. However, on the Eastern Front and in North Africa, this class of vehicle was hampered by its relatively poor off-road performance. In those theaters, it gradually found itself replaced in the reconnaissance role by the Sdkfz 250 half-track (From Wikipedia)

The SdKfz. 222 carried a KwK 30 20mm autocannon and an MG-34 machine gun in the turret, and had between 5 and 14.5mm of armor, protecting it from small arms, but not heavier weapons such as the .50 caliber machine gun.

Sdkfz-2512 "Hanomag" Halftrack x 2
The Sd.Kfz. 251 (Sonderkraftfahrzeug 251) half-track was an armored fighting vehicle designed and first built by the Hanomag company during World War II, and based on their earlier, unarmored Sd.Kfz. 11 vehicle. The larger of the pair (the Sd.Kfz. 250 being the lighter one) of the fully armored wartime half-tracks of the Wehrmacht, the Sd.Kfz. 251 was designed to transport the panzergrenadiers of the German mechanized infantry corps into battle. Sd.Kfz. 251s were the most widely produced German half-tracks of the war, with at least 15,252 vehicles and variants produced by various manufacturers, and were commonly referred to simply as "Hanomags" by both German and Allied soldiers. (From Wikipedia). The Hanomag had a Maybach HL-42 99hp six cylinder engine, with a top speed of 52.5 kilometers per hour (32.5 mph). The vehicle carried an MG-34 machine gun, and was protected on the front, sides, and rear with between 8 and 14.5mm of armor, capable of stopping small arms fire (but not .50 BMG or heavier), however, the vehicle has an open top, leaving it vulnerable to hand grenades, Molotov cocktails, and high-angle fire, including sniper fire, mortars, and strafing aircraft.

VW Kubelwagen Staff Car
The Volkswagen Kübelwagen (literally translated as "bucket car", for its resemblance to a metal bathtub on wheels) was a light military vehicle designed by Ferdinand Porsche and built by Volkswagen during World War II for use by the German military (both Wehrmacht and Waffen-SS). Based heavily on the Volkswagen Beetle, it was prototyped as the Type 62, but eventually became known internally as the Type 82. (From Wikipedia). The Kubelwagen has a flat-4 1131 horsepower engine with a top speed of 80 kilometers per hour (50 mph). The variant of the Kubelwagen used by the SS patrol carries no armament.

Weapons
The Third Recon Team's weapons have the advantage of 50 years of technology on the German weapons. While the standard issue German rifle, the Mauser K98K, is a bolt-action rifle, the JSDF Howa Type 64, while antiquated by modern standards, is still a battle rifle capable of semi or even fully automatic fire. In terms of handguns, the SiG takes the edge of accuracy and capacity over the Luger, and the MP7 fires a more powerful round and has a longer effective range compared to the MP40. The only place the MP40 wins out is capacity, with a 32-round magazine as opposed to the MP7's 20. It should be noted, however, that both the Luger and MP40 may not be able to penetrate the Third Recon Team's body armor. The Panzerfaust 3 is literally a far improved version of the original Panzerfaust, and outclasses it with long range, a more powerful warhead, and the fact that it can be reloaded. The only weapons where the Germans might have a narrow edge are the light machine guns, with the MG34 firing a more powerful 7.92mm round and having a longer range, up to about 1200 meters, vs the 700-1000 meter effective range of the M249 SAW. The SAW, however, has a larger ammo belt when used in an infantry deployment, 200 round as a opposed to 50, however, the vehicle MG34s would probably use the larger 250-round belt. In terms of grenades, the German Steilgranate can be thrown further than the M67, however, the M67 has a greater kill radius thanks to its fragmentation design, as opposed the the Model 24, which did damage mostly from the blast wave. The two bayonets are essentially equivalent, save for the throwing ability of the Kampfmesser, however, this matters litter, as the two forces are unlikely to get close enough to engage in melee combat. The German Flammenwerfer 41 is the only weapon that the Third does not have an equivalent (or, in truth, update) of, and while it may have a psychological impact at close range, any trained soldier would know the flamethrower is an easy target, which may explode and kill the gunner and any surrounding soldiers if hit, meaning it would likely be more of a liability than an asset.

The JSDF troops of the Third Recon Team appear to be wearing Kevlar vests and helmets, which will provide protection against grenade shrapnel and, in the case of the vest, pistol-caliber bullets, though rifle and larger rounds will still be able to penetrate. The Germans would only have a steel helmet, which was effective against shrapnel from above, but not bullets.

Edge: Third Recon Team

Vehicle Armor
The Germans have three vehicles armored against small arms fire, the two Hanomags and the Leichter Panzerspahwagen. The Third Recon's only armored vehicle is the Komatsu LAV. Both the German and JSDF vehicles will be protected from pistol and rifle rounds, as well as a shrapnel, but not heavy weapons such as .50 caliber machine guns, autocannons, or rockets. It should be noted, however, that the Hanomags do not provide all-around protection, and are vulnerable to fire and grenades from above.

Edge: SS Patrol

=X-Factors=

Explanations
In terms of training, the two units are about even, having been through both basic and advanced military training, however, the SS Patrol take a definite edge in terms of combat experience, as they have experienced combat against both Allies and the forces of the "Evil High Priest" in the fantasy world. The Third Recon Team has seen extensive combat against the Empire of the fantasy world, during the initial invasion of Tokyo, (possibly) the counter attack through the Gate and the Battle of Alnus Hill, the Battle of Italica, and the Skirmish at the Imperial Palace, and has engaged an Ancient Dragon on multiple occasions and eventually slew it. However, except for a brief skirmish with foreign black ops forces, they have little experience fighting enemies at their own technology level, as Japan has not been involved in a war since WWII. The Third Recon Team, however, has an overwhelming advantage in terms of firepower, carrying automatic Howa Type 64 assault rifles, giving them far superior rates and volume of fire, allowing them to lay down more fire than the German riflemen with bolt-action K98Ks, in spite of 3rd's smaller numbers. The Third Recon Team also are superior in terms of their pistol, SMG, light machine gun, rocket launcher, and likely their grenades as well. Only the SS' 2Omm cannon might prove superior to the Third Recon Team's .50, however, the .50 cal still is capable of knocking out the Liechter Panzerspahwagen at 500 meters, and the Mk 211 AP round for the .50 cal is stated to rival a standard 20mm round in terms of effect on lightly armored targets (such as the halftracks and Panzerspahwagen). The Recon Team also takes mobility, with its faster modern vehicles- all three are capable of highway speeds (~70mph), while the German vehicles are slowed down by the slowest vehicle in the group, the Panzerspahwagen, with a top speed of only 25 mph. The Third Recon Team's vehicles have superior off-road perfomance, a useful trait in a world with no modern paved roads. However, the German vehicles are better armored, with three of them being resistant to small arms fire, as opposed to only one of the JSDF vehicles. On the other hand, the JSDF troops appear to have at least minimal body armor capable of stopping pistol rounds, including the 9mm used by German MP40 and Luger, as well as shrapnel, though it would be penetrated by rifle-caliber rounds and heavier weapons. Such body armor was not developed until the late 1970s, with the invention of Kevlar, so the Germans would not have anything like it, only a helmet, protecting against shrapnel from above, but useless against bullets. In terms of tactics, I give the Third a slight edge simply due to the effective leadership and until-recently hidden tactical genius of Youji Itami. Finally, the Third Recon Team takes one final advantage in as much as, once they realize they are indeed fighting the SS, the fact that Youji Itami would have likely studied some of their tactics in officer candidate school, he may be able to counter their tactics. If the Third are clearly marked as Japanese, the SS might even mistake them for allies!

Tyrion Lannister
=Weapons=

Orcrist (Thorin)
Orcrist is an elvish blade forged in Gondolin that Thorin found in the troll's horde. The weapon, also known as the "Goblin Cleaver", or "Biter" amongst orcs, was a legendary blade known to slain many an orc. The blade is possesses the usual high-quality and durability of elvish steel. The blade will also glow blue if orcs are nearby. Morphologically, Orcrist is a single-edged sword similar to a real-world falchion, designed primarily for hacking and chopping, but also possessing a point capable of thrusting.

Arming Sword (Tyrion)
The Westerossi arming sword featuring in A Game of Throne, is, for all intents and purposes, identical to the weapon used in medieval Europe from about the 1100s to the 1500s. The weapon has a straight blade, tapering to a point, with a pair of straight quillons giving it a cruciform shape. The blade sword also has a rounded pommel which can be used for striking at close range. While most arming swords were about three feet long, given Tyrion's shorter stature, his blade is likely closer to two feet in length.

One-Handed Axe (Thorin)
Thorin uses a one-handed battle axe as a secondary weapon. The Axe has a roughly diamond-shaped blade, meaning the center of the blade comes to a triangular point, which would presumably focus the impact to allow for better armor penetration. The axe also has a hole in the center, presumably to reduce weight. Thorin's axe has a roughly two-foot long handle.

Parrying Dagger (Tyrion)
Tyrion is pictured in a promotional still armed with a parrying dagger similar to the French main gauche. The primary purpose of the dagger was to parry incoming sword strikes using the large guard to catch and immobilize and enemy's blade. The dagger also has about a ten-inch straight double edged blade, meaning it obviously can be used to attack as well.

119's Edge
Tyrion's parrying dagger could prove useful for blocking sword strikes, however, in the end, I must give the edge to Thorin's Battle Axe for its superior length and force of impact.

Shortbow (Thorin)
Thorin uses a shortbow at one point in the Hobbit movie. He is only seen holding it briefly, but I think it was no more than 2-3 feet in length, scaled down for use by a dwarf, and appears to be recurved, to allow for greater power from its small length.

Crossbow (Tyrion)
Tyrion uses a crossbow in the final episode of season four of Game of Thrones. The crossbow appears to have a metal, likely steel prod (bow part), giving it greater force and flexibility than a wooden-prodded crossbow, meaning it would likely be able to pierce armor. Tyrion's crossbow is loaded using a type of lever sometimes known as a goat's foot lever to pull back the bow, and is fired using a trigger similarly to a modern rifle. The crossbow is, in many ways, an ideal weapons for Tyrion, as it allows him to kill even an armored enemy without physically fighting them, a task which his small frame is ill-suited for.

119's Edge
While Tyrion's crossbow has a lower rate of fire, it makes up for its with its superior armor penetration, stopping power, and likely range, given the shortness of Thorin's bow. It also can be held at the ready for long periods of time, like a gun, which, contrary to what Hollywood will tell you, cannot be done with a bow- a bow is only drawn when its about to be fired.

Oaken Shield (Thorin)
Thorin's surname of "Oakenshield" is a reference to his use of an oaken branch as an improvised shield and blunt instrument in battle with the orcs of Moria. This branch was later kept by Thorin and carved to form a wrist shield covering the side of his arm, used for parrying enemy attacks.

Heater Shield (Tyrion)
At one point, Tyrion uses a heater shield to defend himself from a attacker. The heater shield is roughly U-shaped, with a wide top and getting narrower to a point at the bottom. The shield was clearly designed for a larger man than Tyrion, however, he is still capable of using it, and his small stature means that he can use it to protect most of his body at once.

119's Edge
While Tyrion's Heater Shield is unwieldy for a person of his size, it is also capable of covering most of his body, while Thorin's Oaken shield offers much more limited protection. =Pages to Create=

Anna Toudou
Weapons: Scissors, Bowie Knife, Metal Pipe, SIG Sauer P226, Uzi

Possible Opponents: Yuno Gasai, Arata Kokonoe, Aoi Sakurai

Anna Toudou is the main character of the Yua Kotegawa's manga Anne Freaks. Anna is the daughter of a the leader of a mysterious cult known as the Kakusei Group. After her mother was killed, along with numerous other in a bombing of Haneda Airport which her father was indirectly responsible for, Anna swore to kill her father in revenge for the atrocity. By the time she turned 16, Anna was an accomplished killer, skilled with both firearms and in hand-to-hand combat. Anna hunted down numerous former members of the Kakusei group, killing all of them, and at times torturing information out of those she left alive. When she was 16, Anna met Yuri Kitagawa and Mitsuba Maezono, also children of former Kakusei group leaders, and both of whom were later targeted by the group for assassination. Both Yuri and Mitsuba start living together and assist Anna in her actions. Eventually, however, the police catch wind of their actions and they are forced to flee from the apartment, eventually finding refuge with a Christian pastor and a doctor, Moé, who are also hostile to the Kakusei group. Eventually, Anna and the others are found by Police Superintendent Nishikawa, a woman who would do anything to bring down the Kakusei group. Nishikawa convinces Yuri and Mitsuba to act as spies for her, infiltrating the Kakusei group, even though she knew they would likely be killed in the act, much to the opposition of a fellow officer named Shouno, who believes she can save Anna, Yuri, and Mitsuba from a life of crime.

Anna, Moé, and the pastor quickly realize that this is a betrayal, and the pastor, who is later revealed to be an ex-hitman, arms them with weapons, including M16s and Uzis. Anna, the paster, and Moé storm the Kakusei group compound, eliminating several key figures, but discover that Anna's father is, in fact, dead, along with Yuri's and Mitsuba's fathers, Anna's father being a mummified corpse worshiped by the cult, which is now lead by a mysterious woman.

Yuri is rescued by Anna and her two allies, however, Mitsuba is taken to be executed by the cult, but the botched hanging leaves him in a coma. Anna then storms the roof, where she and Yuri kill Mistuba's killers, though Moé is killed in the process. With his dying words, he states that he tried to protect Anna because he had once been in love with her mother, and also shared Anna's desire to avenge her daughter. He then tells Yuri that he is the second man who she drew into a life of crime.

Anna and Yuri escape the scene, and, about a week later, visited Mitsuba, still in a coma in the hospital. There, they are met by Shouno and Nishikawa. Nishikawa summons to police, while Shouno follows Yuri up to the roof to reason with him, however, she is ambushed an literally stabbed in the back by Anna, before she then shoots Nishikawa, who comes up to the rooftop, gun drawn. Nishikawa, however, is shot and wounded by Anna, who tells Yuri, who has at this point, confessed his love for her, that if he wishes to stay with her, he should kill Shouno. Yuri obeys, and he and Anna escape.

While sitting in a cafe, Anna and Yuri see the pastor interviews on national television, stating that Anna's mother did not die in the bombing. Instead, after the pastor's wife and child were killed in the Haneda bombing, he attacked the Kakusei Group's headquarters, killing about 20 of their ringleaders, including Anna's mother and father. Anna is infuriated by this, and immediately plans her revenge. Anna and Yuri are last seen in a train station, retrieving a pair of Uzis from a storage locker.

Michiru Araragi
Origin: Kono Kanojo was Fiction Desu

Weapons: Superhuman Strength, Massive Improvised Melee weapons (Trees, Columns etc), Thrown Objects, Eye Lasers

Opponents: Kaede "Lucy"

Michiru Araragi was an original character created by Yuuri Hamura over ten years of his life. Michiru started out as an imaginary friend created by the five-year old Yuuri as a coping mechanism for the fact that his parents moved frequently and he could not make any real friends. Yuuri kept adding on to Michiru since then, writing traits of her character in a series of notebooks, eventually reaching 99 in number. By the time Yuuri was in middle school, Michiru had evolved from an imaginary friend to an ideal girlfriend. Michiru took on the final physical appearance of a tall, attractive girl with long black hair and dark-purple colored eyes. The only blemish on her face was a mole on her right eye, which, if anything, only added to her appeal. Michiru was described as having a voice like one of Yuuri's favorite anime voice actresses, and wearing trademark equal-armed cross-shaped hairpins and a trademark ring. Yuuri tried to finally give up on Michiru in his first year of high school, when he met Fuuko Kuzumi, an older girl in the literary club and an amateur writer, and fell in love at first sight. Furthermore, Fuuko took interest in Yuuri after she discovered he had "the hands of a writer", based on a wart he had on his right hand, supposedly caused by constant writing.

Yuuri took all of his notebooks on Michiru's character design, and took them to a shrine, intending to burn them- based on an ancient Japanese practice for disposing of cursed items. There, he runs into Fuuko, and a sudden storm brews. Taking cover in the shrine, Fuuko asks him some questions to help her develop one of her own characters. This drives Yuuri to decide to share his shameful secret. He opens the bag containing his notes about Michiru, only to discover that, insteadof the notes, the bag now contains a nude girl identical to Michiru! Michiru immediately jump at Yuuri and embraces him, saying that she "finally gets to meet him".

The next day, Yuuri finds Michiru cooking breakfast, wearing nothing but an apron. This, he realized, was a modification he made to Michiru he made in 8th grade, when he sexualized her as result of his raging hormones. Yuuri goes on to discover that Michiru displays all of the characteristics he gave her over the years, most notably an obsessive love for him. He also realized that he forgot to give one important aspect found in most normal humans- empathy for anyone other than Yuuri himself. He has literally created an obsessed sociopathic girlfriend. To make matters worst, at various points in his childhood he gave Michiru various superpowers, including superhuman strength and eye lasers. She reveals herself to possess both of these abilities.

Throughout the course of the manga, Yuuri is forced to constantly make sure Yuuri does not commit murder, as well as discovering that the shrine where Michiru first appeared was a portal into the fictional world, and later a second character, one of Fuuko's creations materializes.

USS Iowa
Completed in 1896, the USS Iowa (BB-4) was the first US battleship to bear the name Iowa (the WWII-era USS Iowa was the second). The ship carried four 12-inch guns in two turrets, eight 8-inch guns in four turrets, six 4-inch guns, and several smaller guns, as well as four 14-inch torpedo tubes. The ship was armored with between 4 and 17 inches of Harvey armor, which was stronger than standard nickel steel. The ship had a top speed of 17 knots.

USS Indiana
The USS Indiana was the first US battleship comparable to her foreign contemporaries, launched in 1893. The ship carried four 13.5 inch guns in two turrets, as well as eight 8-inch guns, and four six-inch guns. The ship also carried a number of smaller guns and four torpedo tubes. The ship had 5-18 inches of Harvey armor on the primary turrets, the hull, and armored belt, with thickness varying depending on location. The rest of the ship was armored with 3-10 inches of conventional nickel-steel.

USS Oregon
The USS Oregon was an Indiana-class pre-dreadnought battleship launched in 1893 by the United States Navy. The vessel fought alongside the Massachusetts, Texas, and Iowa in the Battle of Santiago in Cuba. The vessel carried an armament of four 13 inch guns in two twin turrets, eight 8-inch guns in four twin turrets, and four six inch guns. The ship also carried 20 six-pounder guns and six one-pounder guns. The ship was armored Harveyized steel on the belt, turrets, and hull, ranging from 6.25 to 18 inches in thickness, and conventional nickel-steel alloys on tower, deck, and 8-inch turrets, with a thickness of between 4.5 and 10 inches.

=Heihachiro Togo= Marshal-Admiral Marquis Tōgō Heihachirō, OM, GCVO (（東郷 平八郎; 27 January 1848 – 30 May 1934) was a marshal-admiral (Fleet Admiral) in the Imperial Japanese Navy and one of Japan's greatest naval heroes. He was termed by Western journalists as "the Nelson of the East", after Horatio Nelson, the British admiral who defeated the French and Spanish at Trafalgar.

Tōgō was born on 27 January 1848 (by the Western calendar) in the Kajiya-chō (加治屋町） district of the city of Kagoshima in Satsuma domain (modern-day Kagoshima prefecture), in feudal Japan, the third of four sons of Togo Kichizaemon, a samurai serving the Shimazu daimyo, and Hori Masuko (1812-1901).

Kajiya-chō was one of Kagoshima's samurai housing-districts, in which many other influential figures of the Meiji period were born, such as Saigō Takamori and Ōkubo Toshimichi. They rose to prominent positions under the Meiji Emperor partly because the Shimazu clan had been a decisive military and political factor in the Boshin war against the Tokugawa Shogunate during the Meiji Restoration. Tokugawa conflicts (1863–1869)

Tōgō's first experience at war was at the age of 15 during the Bombardment of Kagoshima (August 1863), in which Kagoshima was shelled by the Royal Navy to punish the Satsuma daimyo for the death of Charles Lennox Richardson on the Tōkaidō highway the previous year (the Namamugi Incident), and the Japanese refusal to pay an indemnity in compensation.

The following year, Satsuma established a navy, in which Tōgō and two of his brothers enrolled. In January 1868, during the Boshin War, Tōgō was assigned to the paddle-wheel steam warship Kasuga, which participated in the Naval Battle of Awa, near Osaka, against the navy of the Tokugawa Bakufu, the first Japanese naval battle between two modern fleets.

As the conflict spread to northern Japan, Tōgō participated as a third-class officer aboard the Kasuga in the last battles against the remnants of the Bakufu forces, the Naval Battle of Miyako and the Naval Battle of Hakodate (1869).

Tōgō studied naval science for seven years in England as an apprentice officer, from 1871 to 1878, together with sixteen (or eleven?) other Japanese students. Tōgō visited London, at that time the largest and most populous city in the world. Many things were strange to Japanese eyes; the round houses made out of stone, the 'number and massiveness of the buildings', 'the furnishings of a commonplace European room', 'the displays in the butchers' shop windows: it took them several days to become accustomed to such an abundance of meat.' The Japanese group was separated and sent to English boardinghouses for individual instruction in English language, customs and manners. Next, Tōgō was sent to Plymouth, where he was assigned as a cadet on HMS Worcester, which was part of the Thames Nautical Training College, in 1872. Tōgō found his cadet rations 'inadequate': "I swallowed my small rations in a moment. I formed the habit of dipping my bread in my tea and eating a great deal of it, to the surprise of my English comrades." This was attributed possibly to Tōgō's 'Far Eastern metabolism', the lack of rice, 'or that some other essential element was missing; or perhaps the climatic differences sharpened his appetite.' Perhaps the excitement of his adventure contributed, or maybe Togo just liked the food. Tōgō's comrades called him 'Johnny Chinaman', being unfamiliar with the 'Orient', and not knowing the difference between Asiatic peoples. 'The young samurai did not like that, and on more than one occasion he put an end to it by blows.' Tōgō also surprised these young Englishmen by graduating second in the class.

During 1875, Tōgō circumnavigated the world as an ordinary seaman on the British training-ship Hampshire, leaving in February and staying seventy days at sea without a port call until reaching Melbourne, eating only salted meat and ship's biscuits. Tōgō 'observed the strange animals on the Southern continent.' On his return, Tōgō had sailed thirty thousand miles. Tōgō suffered a strange illness which severely threatened his eyesight: 'the patient asked his medical advisers to "try everything", and some of their experiments were extremely painful.' Mr. Capel commented later, 'If', he wrote, 'I had not seen with my own eyes what a Japanese can suffer without complaint, I should often have been disinclined to believe....But, having observed Tōgō, I believe all of them.' The Harley Street ophthalmologists saved his eyesight. Tōgō studied mathematics in Cambridge (though not at the University) during this time, while living with Reverend A.S. Capel. Tōgō then went to Portsmouth to continue his training before attending the Royal Naval College, Greenwich. During his stay, the Imperial Japanese Navy placed orders in Great Britain for three warships. Tōgō made use of the opportunity to apply his training, supervising (watching carefully) the construction of the Fusō whilst on work experience at the Samuda Brothers shipyard on the Isle of Dogs.

Tōgō, newly promoted to lieutenant finally returned to Japan on 22 May 1878 onboard one of the newly-purchased British-built ships, the Hiei.

Tōgō was absent from Japan during the Satsuma Rebellion, and often expressed regret for the fate of his benefactor Saigō Takamori.

Back in the Imperial Japanese Navy, Tōgō received several commands, first as captain of Daini Teibo, and then Amagi. During the Franco-Chinese War (1884–1885), Tōgō, onboard Amagi, closely followed the actions of the French fleet under Admiral Courbet.

Tōgō also observed the ground combat of the French forces against the Chinese in Formosa (Taiwan), under the guidance of Joseph Joffre, future Commander-in-Chief of French forces during World War I.

In 1894, at the beginning of the First Sino-Japanese War, Tōgō, as a captain of the cruiser Naniwa, sank the British transport ship, Kowshing, which was chartered by the Chinese Beiyang Fleet to convey troops. A report of the incident was sent by Suematsu Kencho to Mutsu Munemitsu.

The sinking almost caused a diplomatic conflict between Japan and Great Britain, but it was finally recognized by British jurists as in total conformity with International Law, making Tōgō famous overnight for his mastery of contentious issues involving foreign countries and regulations. The British ship had been ferrying hundreds of Chinese soldiers towards Korea, and these soldiers had mutinied and taken over the ship upon the appearance and threats from the Japanese ships.

He later took part in the Battle of the Yalu, with the Naniwa as the last ship in the line of battle under the overall command of Admiral Tsuboi Kōzō. Togo was promoted to rear admiral at the end of the war, in 1895.

After the end of the Sino-Japanese War, Tōgō was successively commandant of the Naval War College (Japan), commander of the Sasebo Naval College, and Commander of the Standing Fleet.

In 1903, the Navy Minister Yamamoto Gonnohyōe appointed Tōgō Commander-in-Chief of the Combined Fleet of the Imperial Japanese Navy. This astonished many people, including Emperor Meiji, who asked Yamamoto why Tōgō was appointed. Yamamoto replied to the emperor, "Because Tōgō is a man of good fortune".

During the Russo-Japanese War, Tōgō engaged the Russian navy at Port Arthur and the Yellow Sea in 1904, and destroyed the Russian Baltic Fleet at the Battle of Tsushima in 1905, a battle which shocked the world. Tsushima had broken the Russian strength in East Asia, and is said to have triggered various uprisings in the Russian Navy (1905 uprisings in Vladivostok and the Battleship Potemkin uprising), contributing to the Russian Revolution of 1905.

Post war investigations were held for the Russian naval leadership during those battles, in which Tōgō had either destroyed or captured, into the reasons behind their utter defeat. The Russian commander of the destroyed Baltic fleet, Admiral Zinovy Rozhdestvenski (who was badly wounded in the battle) attempted to take full responsibilities for the disaster, and the grateful authorities (and rulers of Russia) acquitted him at his trial. However, they made Admiral Nikolai Nebogatov, who had tried to affix blame to the Russian Government, a scapegoat. Nebogatov was found guilty, sentenced to ten years imprisonment in a fortress, but was released by the Tsar after only serving 2 years.

Tōgō kept his journals in English, and wrote that "I am firmly convinced that I am the re-incarnation of Horatio Nelson."[2] In 1906, he was made a Member of the British Order of Merit by King Edward VII.

Tōgō was Chief of the Naval General Staff and was given the title of hakushaku (Count) under the kazoku peerage system. He also served as a member of the Supreme War Council. In 1913, Tōgō received the honorific title of Marshal-Admiral. From 1914 to 1924, Tōgō was put in charge of the education of Crown Prince Hirohito, the future Shōwa Emperor.

Tōgō publicly expressed a dislike and disinterest for involvement in politics; however, he did make strong statements against the London Naval Treaty. Captain Sempill showing a Sparrowhawk to Marshal-Admiral Heihachirō Tōgō, 1921.

Tōgō was awarded the Collar of the Supreme Order of the Chrysanthemum in 1926, an honor that was held only by Emperor Hirohito and Prince Kan'in Kotohito at the time. He added the award to his existing Order of the Golden Kite (1st class) and already existing Order of the Chrysanthemum. His title was raised to that of koshaku marquis in 1934 a day before his death.

On his death in 1934 at the age of 86, he was accorded a state funeral. The navies of Great Britain, United States, Netherlands, France, Italy and China all sent ships to a naval parade in his honor in Tokyo Bay. The Tōgō Shrine, in Harajuku, Tokyo, Japan.

In 1940, Tōgō Jinja was built in Harajuku, Tokyo, as the naval rival to the Nogi Shrine erected in the honor of Imperial Japanese Army General Nogi Maresuke. The idea of elevating him to a Shinto kami had been discussed before his death, and he had been vehemently opposed to the idea. There is another Tōgō shrine at Tsuyazaki, Fukuoka. The statues to him in Japan include one at Ontaku Shrine, in Agano, Saitama and one in front of the memorial battleship Mikasa in Yokosuka.

Tōgō's son and grandson also served in the Imperial Japanese Navy. His grandson died in combat during the Pacific War on the heavy cruiser Maya at the Battle of Leyte.

In 1958, Fleet Admiral Chester Nimitz, an admirer of Marshal-Admiral Tōgō, helped to finance the restoration of the Mikasa, Admiral Tōgō's flagship during the Russo-Japanese war. In exchange, Japanese craftsmen assembled a Japanese "Garden of Peace," a replica of Marshal-Admiral Tōgō's garden, at the National Museum of the Pacific War (formerly known as The Nimitz Museum) in Fredericksburg, Texas.

Mikasa
The HIJMS Mikasa was a Japanese battleship built in Britain starting in 1899 and completed in 1900. The ship was best known as the flagship of Heihachiro Togo during the battle of Tsushima during the Russo-Japanese War in 1905. The ship also saw action in the Allied intervention in the Russian Civil War, a failed attempt by the Allies to re-install the tsarist government in Russia after the Russian Revolution. The ship was state of the art for her time, a pre-dreadnought battleship armed with four 12-inch guns in two turrets, firing 850-pound shells up to 15,000 yards. The ship also carried 14 smaller 6-inch guns in single mounts, and a number of lighter, 12, 3, and 2.5 pounder guns, though these would be of little use for this battleship-vs-battleship match. Finally, the Mikasa carried four 18-inch torpedo tubes. The ship was armored with between 2 and 14 inches of armor, with the heaviest armor being on the barbettes and conning tower, and weakest on the deck. The Mikasa had a top speed of 18 knot (21 mph).

Asahi
The Asahi, like the other battleships operated by Japan at the time, was actually built by a shipyard in the United Kingdom from 1897-1900. The vessel was a pre-dreadnought battleship, armed four 12 inch guns in two turrets, as well 14 6-inch guns mounted in single mounts, as well as a number of smaller guns for protection against torpedo boats. The ship's armor ranged for 2 inches on parts of the casemates to 14 inches on the conning tower. The ship had a top speed of 18 knots.

Shikishima
The Shikishima was one of battleships of its class was built from 1898-1900, the other, the Hatsuse being sunk by a Russian mine in 1904. The ship carried four 12 inch guns in two turrets and 14 6-inch guns, as well as numerous smaller guns and four torpedo tubes. The ship had between 2.5-10 inches of armor. The Shikishima had a top speed of 18 knots.

=Mako Fujisaki= m Mako Fujisaki, also known as Valkyria, is the main antagonist of the manga and anime Gokukoku no Brynhildr. Mako is implied to have been a normal Japanese girl until she was kidnapped by a secret military organization and implanted with an alien parasite in a similar manner to numerous others, including the main cast of the anime. After both Saori and Kikako, another "witch", fail to eliminate Kuroha Neko and the other escaped "witches" who escaped and were subsequently hidden by series protagonist Ryouta Murakami. Fujisaki's powers are massive, being able to use ten abilities, rather than the one or two of most "witches", and is theoretically capable of destroying the entire planet with her antimatter generation powers. Fujisaki was supposed to be held in check by a dozen other witches with power-limiting abilities, however Mako managed to kill all of them and escaped. Shortly afterwards, she demonstrated her powers by generating a piece of antimatter on the a mountaintop viewpoint. Mako teleported away as the antimatter created a nuclear-level explosion which destroyed the entire mountain. As of this point, the manga is ongoing.

Mako Fujisaki's personality can be described is exceedingly sociopathic, having no empathy towards most human beings, only showing affection towards her sister Kuroha Neko, and towards Chisato Ichijuku, an scientist at the facility she had fallen in love with. Otherwise, Mako considers herself to be an almost godlike entity and humans to be lesser life forms, whose lives are of no importance to her. As such, she will kill anyone who even slightly annoys her. Mako, along with Chisato Ichijuku, is confronted by both the anti-Organization resistance group, Hexenjagd, as well as the "witches" allied with Ryouta Murakami, including Kuroha Neko. During the confrontation, Chisato is shot by Hexenjagd agents, who then attempt to eliminate Mako.

Upon seeing the death of her love, Mako declares that she intends to destroy the entire world, and creates a massive ball of antimatter. Kuroha, however, unleashes her until then latent powers, dueling with Mako until she kills her using a micro-black hole.

Antimatter Generation
Mako Fujisaki is capable of generating masses of antimatter on command, and apparently containing them in a vacuum of some description until such a time as she decides to release them. Even a small mass of antimatter is capable of detonating with the force of a nuclear warhead.

Flight
Mako is capable of flight, apparently being able to fly and hover into the air at will.

Gravity Manipulation
=SCP-682= SCP-682 is a major character in the SCP universe, a fictional universe created on the internet by a variety of authors, featuring a fictional organization known as SCP: Secure, Contain, Protect, involved in containing and researching paranormal, alien, and other mysterious phenomena. 692 is one of most dangerous beings contained at SCP, is a large, reptilian creature of unknown, possibly extradimensional origins, or possibly a "glitch in the universe". The creature displays human or greater levels of intelligence, having the ability to speak, and expresses a desire to destroy all life on earth. Based on the size of its containment facility, the creature is typically no more than five meters in length, though it can change its size and shape when it consumes organic material, at one point becoming large enough to take down a helicopter with a tentacle-like appendage. The creature is capable of continuing to move with 87% of its original mass destroyed, and can regenerate from the destruction of 99%. 682 can be incapacitated, but not killed by, acid immersion, fire, and explosions, but cannot be destroyed unless all mass in his body is destroyed. Other mysterious objects and entities held at SCP have also failed to kill 682, including a crystal that crystallizes anything it touches, a creature that kill a target just by looking at it, and an ancient, immortal swordsman who can materialize blades out of thin air. It was even defeated the creation of a set of mysterious bookends that make any story placed inside them into reality, in this case, equipped with an SCP-employee written story called "The Generally Nice, Friendly Thing That Can And Will Kill SCP–682 Permanently if it So Much As Spots That Damn Lizard". When 682 was lured into a room that had been changed into the reality of the story, sounds of battle were heard, and SCP-682 exited the room, albeit injured, and the proceeded to attack the researchers involved in the termination attempt. After containing 682, a team was sent into world of the story to retrieve the bookends (and thus dispel the "story world"). Inside, they found impact craters and many bloody fragments of the creature that was meant to kill 682. The story in the bookends was now much longer, a 202-page account of an epic battle between the story protagonist and 682, which 682 won. The story was now titled "The Generally Nice, Friendly Thing That Tried To Kill SCP–682 Permanently But Failed"

Melee Attacks/Massive Strength
Depending on its form, SCP-682 has a variety of melee attacks, augmented by its massive strength at its disposal. The creature has large, sharp-toothed jaws, which it devours it prey. Its limbs possess razor-sharp claws which it can grow as large as a two-handed battle axe. It also has bony plates on its "fist" capable of delivering crushing blows capable crushing metal and concrete, and a bony tail club similar to that of a Stegosaurus. Finally, it has been known to create a long tentacle-like structure, perhaps as long as 100 feet, capable of bringing down an attack helicopter.

Shapeshifting
SCP-682 is capable of changing its shape and size, though all forms are capable retain the general reptilian morphology, provided it consumes enough material, either organic or inorganic. These can include adaptations to defend against new threats, including an anteater-like tongue to deal with a horde of flesh-eating insects, dermal armor over the eyes, and multiple eyes to prevent it from being attacked by SCP-173.

Regeneration
SCP-682 has remarkable skills of regeneration, being to move and speak even after losing 87% of its original mass. The creature is even capable of regenerating from the destruction of 99 percent of its body on a mollecular level.

Intelligence
SPC-682 is of human or greater intelligence, proving itself able to speak in an extremely low-pitched voice. 682 expresses a hatred for all life and a desire to destroy all of it. The creature shows no hostility towards machines, even sentient artificial intelligences, and is known to have figured out how to operate a computer, creating an appendage capable of using keyboard. SCP-682 rarely expresses emotions other than anger or hatred, but it is apparently capable of feeling fear, though currently the only thing it is known to fear is SCP-173, an animated concrete statue known to be capable of moving and attacking any living thing it come near, but only when it is not within the line of sight of at least one individual.

"Shockwave Attack"
SCP-628 has been known to unleash a damaging shockwave from his body. The exact nature of this ability is unknown, though it seems to create some sort of electrical discharge. It is also described as resonating through the fabric of reality itself.

Bony Dermal Armor
SCP-682 is covered in bony dermal armor, implied to be thick enough to resist fire from a high-powered sniper rifle. =Rayet Areash (Aldnoah Zero) vs Gai Tsutsugami (Guilty Crown)=

Gai meets Shu Ouma, the main character of the anime after Shu is sent by a girl named Inori Yuzuriha to deliver a package to him. On the way, Shu comes in contact with the package and gains a mysterious power to pull weapons and other objects out a person's body. The object pulled out varies depending on the person. Gai allows Shu to join the Undertakers after he destroys a couple of GHQ mechs. Gai accompanies Shu into the control center of a GHQ laser satellite, destroying the weapon, and while he is at it, destroying a mech using only a grappling hook and his Luger, destroying the machine by shooting it in a weak point on top of the vehicle. Later, Gai and Shu attack the central base of GHQ itself, in Odaiba, Tokyo. In there, they discover a number GHQ scientists are attempting to control the Apocalypse Virus, using a girl who was also Shu's long lost sister, Mana.

Gai and Mana are apparently killed, with only Shu escaping. Gai, however, is not dead. Instead, he returns with the support of GHQ and steals Ouma's powers by cutting off the arm that came contact with the package. Shu discovers that Gai is part of Da'at, an ancient conspiracy to use the Apocalypse Virus to bring about the evolution of the human race. Shu and Gai fight each other a final time in the GHQ headquarters, wher Gai and Mana, who Inori Yuzuriha is actually a second personality of, intend to transmit the Apocalypse virus to the entire world and become the "Adam and Eve" of a new human race. The fight results Gai and Mana's death. Shortly afterwards, through some process even I did not quite understand, Inori somehow separates from Mana and sacrifices herself, curing the Apocalypse virus. Yeah... It was one of those endings...

After the princess of the empire, Aeseylum Vers Allusia visited earth on a peace mission, Rayet's father destroyed her motorcade with anti-tank missiles, being promised a title of nobility in the Vers Empire, which carried with it the power to control the ancient alien super-technology of Aldnoah. Rayet's father was send to assassinate her as part of a plot by the Vers Orbital Knights to create an excuse to invade Earth. Instead, when Rayet's father met Sir Trillam of the Vers Empire, he crushes him and all of the other conspirators under his mech in order to silence them. Rayet is the lone survivor.

Rayet, however, is rescued by Yuki Kaizuka, a Terran mech pilot, and her younger brother, Inaho, a high school student drafted into a militia. Rayet quickly proves herself skilled in the use of firearms, in close combat, and aids Inaho in destroying Trillam's mech, or Kataphrakt, which, like all Martian war machines, can challenge armies of conventional troops, but has weak points that can be easily exploited if they are discovered. Later, Rayet kills the Vers Countess Femieanne using a sniper cannon-equipped KG-7 Arion Kataphrakt. =Weapons=

119's Edge
The Glock has almost 100 years of technological advances over the Luger, resulting in a superior magazine capacity and ergonomics, allowing for greater accuracy. Not to mention the "knee joint" mechanism that obscures the Luger user's aim after each shot. While the Grappling hook gives Gai more tactical options, it does not remove the fact that his pistol is woefully outdated. Edge: Rayet

The Heckler and Koch MP5 is a submachine gun chambered for the 9mm round. Since the 1960s, the weapon has been popular around the world and is currently a popular weapon used by law-enforcement agencies, special forces groups, and terrorists. Through the success of the G3 battle rifle, the MP5 war created and the design of the submachine gun was based upon the rifle. The weapon was immediately was adopted by 40 countries several years after it was manufactured and by numerous law enforcement and security organizations.

The weapon has numerous attachment rails for attachments, including an ACOG-style scope. The weapon is capable of fully automatic fire, though I could not find information on the rate of fire. The weapon's range is also unknown to me, though it has a short barrel, so likely less than the M4.

Kimber Warrior
The Kimber MCSOCOM ICQB is a 5" barreled aluminum-framed 1911 chambered in .45 ACP custom built for the US Marine Corps. It features a bolt on Dawson Precision light rail, Novak night sights, and omits the full length guide rod and firing pin block of other Kimber models to make field stripping easier. The weapon fires a .45 ACP round from an 8-round magazine.

Callum
Callum is a playable co-op character in Far Cry 3. Serving as a possible leader of his group Callum is a petty criminal and chef born in Scotland. It is unknown if he is the real leader of his group but he seems to have taken the position.

Callum can also be identified as a fan of the Scottish football club Rangers. This is evidenced by the fact that when his 'football fan' costume is chosen, his t-shirt is an almost exact replica of Rangers' 2011–2012 home shirt, only missing the shirt manufacturer and shirt sponsor, and with a changed crest, similar to Frank Bilder's GAA jacket from Far Cry 2.

Growing up in the projects of Glasgow, Callum developed an early attachment to knives. At six, he won his first knife fight. At 12, he was already leading a street gang of his own. He spent part of his teenage years working as a chefs' apprentice in Wales.

After years of dodging serious trouble, Callum's ruthless spirit finally took its toll. He picked a fight with the wrong man, snapped and incidentally beat him to a pulp. Hunted by police and gang members, he fled Scotland and found a job on the SS Astrid.

Callum has a cynical, black-humoured point of view, but becomes aggressive, ruthless and, at times, psychotic when provoked.

The Ultimax has a range of up to about 1200 meters and a rate of fire of 400-600 RPM. The weapon typically uses a 100-round drum magazine, though it can accept 30-round STANAG magazines in an emergency.

GM-94
The GM-94 is a Russian made pump-action grenade launcher similar in principle to the American China Lake Grenade Launcher. The weapon fires 43mm rounds from a three-round magazine, with a fourth round in the chamber. While the launcher was intended for thermobaric rounds with a lower blast radius, designed to allow it to be used at closer ranges, the GM-94 in Far Cry 3 appears to use a (possibly fictional) high explosive fragmentation round, and will use the same round for the purposes of this match.

Mikhail

As a street orphan, Mikhail’s youth was marked with abuse and abandonment. It was not until his teenage years that he found his path and fell in with an elite league of criminals, known for its strict code of conduct that extolled honour and resistance against authority. After two stints in jail and years of devotion, he was crowned a leader of his gang and became the right-hand man to his mentor. But when he fell in love and eloped, breaking his league’s code, he was forced to flee and put his wife, Katya, and newborn daughter into hiding. Now he is working aboard the SS Astrid to earn what money he can to start a new life outside Russia. Always one step ahead, he is calm and collected in battle. His mercy extends to no one.

Shovel
Winter's primary melee weapon is a simple shovel, appearing to a scavenged civilian model rather than a military issue entrenching tool, given its longer handle. The shovel has a longer attack time than some other melee weapons, however, its heavy blade can cause sever blunt and limited sharp force trauma.

M27 IAR w/ C-mag

=Jiralhanae (Halo) vs First Demonic Division (Salvation War series)= The Jiralhanae, the bloodthirsty ape-like aliens who formed the shock troops of the Covenant Empire

VS

The First Demonic Division, a US-supported unit of demons created after humanity conquers hell itself... to fight against a corrupt God.

WHO IS DEADLIEST?!

=Jiralhanae= A Fearsome and barbaric people, the Jiralhanae, better known as the Brutes, are native to the magma-heated Earth-like planet, Doisac. The Brutes raised their civilization to a Space-Age level, before they were torn apart in a bloody civil war that reduced their population and crippled their technology and culture. However, their savagery and skill in battle did not go unnoticed, and when they were in this weakened state, The Covenant Empire launched a full invasion, quickly pummeling the Brutes and absorbing them into the Covenant ranks in 2492. Intially meant only to serve as guards and heavy infantry, the Jiralhanae proved incredibly quick converts- they quickly adapted and molded to the Prophet's religion, and despite their inability to truly grasp ideas like sanctity, they quickly became devout and even fanatical to The Great Journey.With my blessing, the Brutes now lead our fleets! They ask for your allegiance, and you shall give it!"

The Brutes have fought in the Covenant since before the war with the UNSC, but their deployment was rare. Early sightings of their deployment after the Fall of Harvest was met with surprise and confusion from the UNSC Spirit of Fire and her crew, while other Brute forces were deployed in small numbers to Reach. The first time the Brutes saw major action as a ground force was after the destruction of the first Halo Ring and the invasion of Earth by the Covenant. Here, Brutes appeared in many major supporting roles under the leadership of Tartarus. After a great deal of fighting, the Prophets announced that the Elites were to be terminated and phased out of the Covenant, being replaced with the stronger and more fanatical Brutes. This lead to a massive Civil War within the Covenant, as the Brutes quickly took the Elites by surprise and killed many. The Arbiter was able to rally many Covenant Forces to his side, and after killing Tartarus, he split off and founded the Covenant Seperatists. After this split, the Brutes took full control of the Invasion of Earth, while they won many battles, they eventually lost the war- their Prophets all dead and their Great Journey forever halted.

After the Human-Covenant War, the exact fate of the Jiralhanae people is unknown. While some groups have splintered off and engaged each other in civil wars as they did in the generations prior to their adoption into the Covenant, a huge number of Brute forces were left in hostile territory after the war, and their warrior nature would not lead to retreat. Reports that a lack of Covenant supplies and troops, combined with the return to classic Brute Savagery allowed the UNSC and Covenant Seperatists to gain the upper hand and push them out.

Leader: Tartarus
Tartarus is easily recognized by his silver fur, very deep voice, his distinctive "Mohawk", and the fact that he wielded the Fist of Rukt. His devotion and faithfulness to the Covenant and the Prophets is unwavering, and he strongly represents the general attitude of his entire race: rough, arrogant, and disdainful of the Sangheili. He was a powerful, aggressive, and intelligent leader who inspired both fear and respect in his Jiralhanae forces. Tartarus is also the nephew of Maccabeus, whom he killed on the bridge of Rapid Conversion in order to gain the position of the Chieftain of the Jiralhanae. Also, Sergeant Johnson refers to Tartarus as "Mr. Mohawk" on Halo 2's last mission, when talking to Thel 'Vadam.

=First Demonic Division= '''WARNING: This page contains spoilers and is features a character from a web novel that people of some religious faiths may find contraversial. You have been warned.'''

The First Demonic Division is a US supported division in Stuart Slade's Salvation War series of web novels. In this series, in 2008, humanity receives a message from a being claiming to be God, declaring the beginning of the apocalypse, stating the all mankind was condemned to hell, and commanding all humans to die. Most people, however, ignore the message until "demonic heralds" appear, declaring earth under the dominion of Satan. The heralds are engaged by military forces, who quickly discover that the demons are not only mortal, but are easily killed by modern military hardware. This prompts almost all nations on Earth to literally declare war on both God and Satan. A demonic invasion force appears in Iraq, only be routed by US and allied armor, before the the armies of Earth literally launch a counterattack through the portal to hell and easily rout the demons on their home turf, liberating billions of humans in the "Hell Pit", where some had been tortured for millenia. By this point, it become apparent that both God and Satan, as well as many other "gods" and "demons" of mythology are not actually supernatural beings, but extradimensional aliens, with extraordinary biological abilities such as bio-electricity and the ability to open portals, which made them seem godlike to ancient peoples, but were less impressive to anyone who had seen a tank!

After Satan is literally killed by a pair of anti-ship missiles, Abigor, a demon lord who defected to the side of humanity after seeing their firepower is made the leader of most of a new hell, save for the New Roman Republic, a nation of deceased "second lifers" led by consuls Julius Caesar and downed US helicopter pilot Jade Kim. Both the US and the New Roman Republic deploy defected demons as troops, though they are mostly armed with upscaled .94 Nitro (round designed for the larger demons) version of the 19th century British Martini-Henry Rifle to keep them from getting too powerful.

While there were initial difficulties with training the demons to fight alongside humans in a modern war, human authorities, particularly the New Roman Republic, managed to produce effective fighting forces supported by human specialists and vehicle crews. Both the First Demonic and the Roman demonic legions served the war against heaven, where, along with the human militaries, proved superior to the Angelic Host, who were armed with ancient weapons, bioelecticity, and sonic "trumpet blasts". In spite of this, the Roman demonic legions had to support the First Demonic after they were almost overrun by a large group of "angels". The Salvation War ended when the US destroyed a massive angelic army with a nuclear missile, and the archangel Michael, a secret human sympathizer, staged a coup against God himself, in order to prevent the Eternal City from falling victim to a nuclear attack.

It is not known what happens after this, as Stuart Slade's third novel in the series Lords of War, has not been written, and will likely never be written.

Leader: Abigor
Prior to the Salvation War, Abigor was a greater demon, a vassal of Satan himself. When Hell attempted to invade Earth, Abigor was chosen to be the commander of the army, which he led out of a portal, into the Iraqi desert. There, Abigor's forces were men by US, British, Iranian, Iraqi insurgent, and other human military forces now united against his invasion. While Abigor's flying "harpies" managed down a few AH-6 Little Bird helicopters, Abigor's forces, who had no idea just how much technologically advanced humanity actually was, were decimated by attacks from tanks, artillery, fighter and bomber aircraft, as well as land mines, while their bio-electric "lightning" proved useless against human vehicles. The demons managed to make a brief breakthrough at the Iraqi town of Hit, which was defended only by US infantry, who discovered that 5.56mm ammunition was not sufficient to pierce the thick skin of the demons. The US forces, however, managed to counterattack using grenades, AT4s, .50 caliber firearms, and mortars, aided by Iraqi insurgents armed with RPGs, car bombs, and suicide bombers. The US forces in Hit were reinforced by armor, and the demons were pushed back. US and allied armor then made a flanking maneuver, cutting off the demon from the hellmouth, leaving them with no choice but to surrender or die. Abigor, however, escaped back to hell, only to be ordered by Satan himself, along with his family, to charge the human forces personally. Knowing this was a suicide mission he and his family were sent on as punishment for their failure, Abigor surrenders to a unit of US armor, and later defects the US, providing valuable intelligence on the environment in hell, as well as the various races of demons. During this time, Abigor also takes up the hobby of studying human military history. Abigor takes part in the entry into an underground chamber where Satan was holding court as his empire crumbled around him, until he was killed by human missiles sent through a portal. The rest of the demons surrender to Abigor, now armed with a custom 30mm rifle made from a British RARDEN cannon, and the human special forces who enter with him. After the fall of hell, Abigor is made the leader of a new human-aligned hell, and provides demonic troops for the war against God and Heaven.

As a greater demon, Abigor is much larger than other races of demon. Abigor is about 15 feet tall, and comes with all the strength of a being of that size, easily wielding a the 30mm rifle, based on a vehicle-mounted weapon.

Gravity Hammer (Brutes)
The Gravity Hammer is a traditional weapon of the Jiralhanae, a large hammer with a massive head an a handle of about five feet in length. The striking force of the hammer is augmented by an artificial gravity generator that greatly increased the force of impact, unleashing a powerful shockwave. The weapon also has a blade on the back which can also be used in close combat.

Trident (Demons)
"Demons" in the Salvation War universe use bronze tridents as their primary weapons. In addition to using them as thrusting weapons, they also use the prongs of the trident to channel their natural bio-electricity, allowing them to shoot out blasts of "lighting".

119's Edge
The Demons' Trident, for its longer range.

Spiker (Brutes)
The Brute Spiker is a Jiralhanae firearm firing large spikes about a foot in length. These spikes are superheated until they are red hot as they exit the barrel of the weapon, in order to cause increased damage. The Spiker is also equipped with two large bayonets, designed not for thrusting like a human bayonet, but for delivering lethal slashing attacks. The Spiker's main drawback is its poor accuracy and the poor ballistic performance of the spikes, resulting in significant bullet drop.

M1114 (Demons)
The M1114 was a .458 Winchester Magnum chambered version of the M14 Rifle that was developed during the Salvation War, after 5.56mm weapons such as the M4 carbine proved to have insufficient stopping power to reliably bring down a "demon". It will be assumed to have a 20-round magazine similar to the original M14.

119's Edge
The Demon's M1114 for its superior ballistic performance, meaning greater range, as well as its high stopping power.

Covenant Carbine (Brutes)
The Type 51 Carbine is a Covenant semi-automatic marksman rifle with a 2x scope. The weapon fires 8.7x60mm caseless rounds made from a toxic and radioactive substance. The rounds are coated with a substance to shield the user from the radiation and toxins, but the coating is destroyed on impact, causing poisoning or possible cancer if the projectile does not kill the target. The weapon has an 18-round magazine and muzzle velocity of 700 meters per second, and a range of 600 meters.

M1116 (Demons)
The M1116 is an upscaled version of the 19th century British Martini-Henry (left) rifle designed specifically for use by demons. The weapon fires a fiction .950 Nitro round, a round similar to an upscaled .700 Nitro elephant gun cartridge. The closest real-life cartridge is the .950 JDJ (right), a 24mm round made from an upscaled 20x102mm autocannon casing. The weapon impacts with a force of over 52,450 joules, compared to the 20,195 joules of a 800 grain .50 BMG round. While an 8-foot tall demon would be able to handle the force of the recoil, there is still the issue of the primary weakness of the Martini-Henry design- it is a single shot weapon with no magazine, intentionally designed that way so the demons never pose a real threat to humanity.

119's Edge
The sheer destructive power of the .950 round, likely able to take down a Brute with one well-placed shot is impressive, the weapon's rate of fire is less than impressive. The carbine, on the other hand, has a faster rate of fire, but lower stopping power, however, this is possible offset by the toxic and radioactive nature of the projectile, as well as the potential for fragmenation on impact, increasing the damage on impact.

Brute Shot (Brutes)
The Brute Shot is a Jiralhanae grenade launcher firing for a four-round belt. The weapon fires from a four-round belt, however, its rounds have relatively low stopping power, being ineffective against energy shields and even larger adversaries that can absorb the shrapnel and blast with less injury. The Brute Shot also has a large rear-mounted bayonet, designed for slashing, rather than thrusting attacks.

M240A2 (Demons)
The FN MAG is a Belgian 7.62 mm general-purpose machine gun, designed in the early 1950s at Fabrique Nationale (FN) by Ernest Vervier., and, in the form of the M240, remains the standard issue GPMG of the US Army. In the Salvation War universe, a variant chambered for .338 Lapua Magnum rounds was designed when 7.62mm rounds proved ineffective against demons. The weapon will be assumed to fire from a 100-round belt, a range of 1000 meters and a rate of fire of 850-1000 rpm like its 7.62mm counterpart.

119's Edge
The two weapons are too different to compare directly, however, in my opinion, the rapid fire of .338 Lapua rounds from the M240A2 will prove superior to the low blast radius grenades of the Brute Shot fired at a lower rate of fire.

Fist of Rukt (Tartarus)
The Fist of Rukt is a custom gravity hammer wielded by Tarturus passed down through generation of Jiralhanae Chieftains. The weapon is presumably named for some Covenant hero or deity, or possibly a previous owner. The weapon has a powerful artificial gravity generation, capable of striking with greater force than a normal gravity hammer. The weapon is also capable of firing an electromagnetic pulse and an energy pulse capable of knocking enemies backwards. Finally, the weapon seems to be equipped with a shield generator. '''NOTE: For the purposes of this match, conventional weapons will be able to pierce the shield with sustained fire. The need to disable it with a beam rifle will be assumed to be a game mechanic and not applicable in this fight. That said, the shield will still be very powerful, able to survive multiple rocket hits, for instance.'''

Custom Trident (Abigor)
Before he got his RARDEN rifle when he joined the humans, Abigor carried a bronze trident customized to maximize efficiency of its electrical discharge. For the purposes of this match, he will have this weapon with during the battle along with his rifle.

119's Edge
Tartarus' Fist of Rukt for its superior force of impact and rate and its shield generator.

Plasma Turret (Tartarus)
The Type-52 Directed Energy Support Weapon, otherwise known as the Plasma Cannon, is a manned automatic plasma turret used by the Covenant. It was rarely encountered prior to 2552 and is likely to be a universal replacement for the older Type-42 Directed Energy Support Weapon. The weapon fires bolts of superheated plasma, which cause severe third or fourth degree (flesh burned away entirely over an area) burn injuries and quickly depletes shields, however, it does not produce the deep penetration wounds projectile weapons. The other main weakness of plasma weaponry is that they only have a muzzle velocity of around 126 meters per second, much slower than a bullet. The Plasma turret has a rate of fire of around 600 rpm and comes with a 200-round battery.

RARDEN Rifle (Abigor)
After defecting to the side of the humans, Abigor arms himself with a custom-made rifle made from a British 30mm RARDEN cannon (pictured), which he is capable of wielding thanks to his massive size, with a height of around 15 feet. The cannon is normally used on military vehicles such as the Scimitar light tank and Warrior APC, and fires a 30mm high explosive-incendiary, armor-piercing secondary effect (an AP round with a red phosphorus filler for a secondary incendiary effect), or armor piercing discarding sabot rounds. Abigor's 30mm rifle has a three-round magazine.

119's Edge
Against a 15-foot tall target like Abigor, the plasma turret's bolts will have less of an impact- his body can resist 7.62mm rounds easily and is presumably resistant to heat, literally living in a volcanic hell. The RARDEN cannon, on the other hand, fires rounds designed to knock out light armor, which could vaporize an unshielded Jiralhanae in one shot, and even severely deplete Tartarus' shield.

WHO IS DEADLIEST!?

=Nazi Germany= Nazi Germany and the Third Reich are common names for Germany during the period from 1933 to 1945, when its government was controlled by Adolf Hitler and his National Socialist German Workers' Party (NSDAP), commonly known as the Nazi Party. Under Hitler's rule, Germany was transformed into a fascist totalitarian state which controlled nearly all aspects of life. Nazi Germany ceased to exist after the Allied Forces defeated Germany in May 1945, ending World War II in Europe.

After Hitler was appointed Chancellor of Germany by the President of the Weimar Republic Paul von Hindenburg on 30 January 1933, the Nazi Party began to eliminate all political opposition and consolidate their power. Hindenburg died on 2 August 1934, and Hitler became dictator of Germany when the powers and offices of the Chancellery and Presidency were merged. A national referendum held 19 August 1934 confirmed Hitler as sole Führer (leader) of Germany. All power was centralised in Hitler's hands, and his word was above all laws. The government was not a coordinated, co-operating body, but rather a collection of factions struggling to amass power and gain Hitler's favour. In the midst of the Great Depression, the Nazis restored economic stability and ended mass unemployment using heavy military spending and a mixed economy. Extensive public works were undertaken, including the construction of Autobahns (high speed highways). The return to economic stability boosted the regime's popularity.

Racism, especially antisemitism, was a central feature of the regime. The Germanic peoples—also referred to as the Nordic race—were considered to be the purest representation of Aryanism, and therefore the master race. Jews and others deemed undesirable were persecuted or murdered, and opposition to Hitler's rule was ruthlessly suppressed. Members of the liberal, socialist, and communist opposition were killed, imprisoned, or forced into exile. The Christian churches were also oppressed, with many leaders imprisoned. Education focused on racial biology, population policy, and fitness for military service. Career and educational opportunities for women were curtailed. Recreation and tourism were organised via the Strength Through Joy program, and the 1936 Summer Olympics showcased the Third Reich on the international stage. Propaganda minister Joseph Goebbels made effective use of film, mass rallies, and Hitler's hypnotising oratory to control public opinion. The government controlled artistic expression, promoting specific art forms and discouraging or banning others.

Nazi Germany made increasingly aggressive territorial demands, threatening war if they were not met. Austria and Czechoslovakia were seized in 1938 and 1939. Hitler made a pact with Joseph Stalin and invaded Poland in September 1939, launching World War II in Europe. In alliance with Italy and smaller Axis powers, Germany conquered most of Europe by 1940 and threatened Great Britain. Reichskommissariats took brutal control of conquered areas, and a German administration was established in what was left of Poland. Jews and others deemed undesirable were imprisoned and murdered in Nazi concentration camps and extermination camps. The implementation of the regime's racial policies culminated in the mass murder of Jews and other minorities in the Holocaust. Following the German invasion of the Soviet Union in 1941, the tide turned against the Third Reich, and major military defeats were suffered in 1943. Large-scale bombing of German cities, rail lines, and oil plants escalated in 1944. Germany was overrun in 1945 by the Soviets from the east and the other Allies from the west. Hitler's refusal to admit defeat led to massive destruction of German infrastructure and unnecessary loss of life in the closing months of the war. The victorious Allies initiated a policy of denazification and put the surviving Nazi leadership on trial for war crimes at the Nuremberg trials. =Order of Battle=

Gewehr 43
The Gewehr 43 is a semi-automatic battle rifle used by Nazi Germany during World War II. The weapon was based on the design of the Soviet SVT-40 rifle, but chambered for the 7.92mm Mauser round used by the Germans at the time. The weapon had a ten-round magazine and an effective range of 500 meters in the hands of a skilled user. The weapon could also be fitted with a scope for sniping, increasing the effective range to about 800 meters.

MP-40
The MP 40 was a submachine gun developed by Nazi Germany and used by troops during World World II. It was often used by paratroopers and officers in the German military during World War II. The MP 40 was a open-bolt, blowback operated automatic gun. The weapon had an effective range of between 70 and 100 meters, firing a 9mm round from a 32-round magazine.

Kar 98K Scoped
The Karabiner98k was the standard serivce rifle of the German military from 1935-1945. It was a bolt-action rifle with an internal magazine. Bullets could be loaded with a five-round stripper clip or loaded singly into the magazine by hand. Various attachments such as grenade launchers, suppressors, and bayonets could be attached to the Karabiner 98k. It became at a disadvantage to Allied forces during World War II due to it's bolt-action slowing down the rate of fire.

High-quality Karabiner-98ks were fitted with a telescopic site to function as a sniper rifle. In skilled hands they could hit targets up to 1000m away.

Panzershreck
The Panzerschreck (lit. "armor fright", "tank fright", or "tank terror") was the popular name for the Raketenpanzerbüchse (abbreviated to RPzB), an 88 mm calibre reusable anti-tank rocket launcher developed by Nazi Germany based off the american Bazooka in World War II. Another popular nickname was Ofenrohr ("stove pipe"). The weapon fired a high-explosive anti tank (HEAT) round at a range of up to 150 meters.

=Armor=

Panzer III x 400
Panzer III was the common name of a medium tank that was developed in the 1930s by Germany and was used extensively in World War II. The official German designation was Panzerkampfwagen III Sd Kfz. 141 (abbreviated PzKpfw III) translating as "armoured fighting vehicle". It was intended to fight other armoured fighting vehicles and serve alongside the infantry-supporting Panzer IV; however, as the Germans faced the formidable T-34, stronger anti-tank guns were needed. Since the Panzer IV had a bigger turret ring, the role was reversed. For the purposes of this match, the Panzer III will be an Ausf H. variant armed with a 50mm main gun and two MG-34 7.92mm machine guns. The tank had between five and 70mm of armor, with the most heavily armored areas being the turret and hull front. The tank had a 296 horsepower Maybach V12 diesel engine with a top speed of 40 kph/25 mph.

Panzer IV x 200
The Panzerkampfwagen IV (Pz.Kpfw. IV), commonly known as the Panzer IV, was a German medium tank developed in the late 1930s and used extensively during the Second World War. Its ordnance inventory designation was Sd.Kfz. 161.

Designed as an infantry-support tank, the Panzer IV was not originally intended to engage enemy armor—that function was performed by the lighter Panzer III. However, with the flaws of pre-war doctrine becoming apparent and in the face of Soviet T-34 tanks, the Panzer IV soon assumed the tank-fighting role of its increasingly obsolete cousin. The most widely manufactured and deployed German tank of the Second World War, the Panzer IV was used as the base for many other fighting vehicles, including the Sturmgeschütz IV assault gun, Jagdpanzer IV tank destroyer, the Wirbelwind self-propelled anti-aircraft weapon, and the Brummbär self-propelled gun. The tank will, for the purposes of this match, be armed with a long-barreled 75mm Kwk 40 anti-tank gun, and between 10 and 88mm of armor. The tank had a 296 horsepower Maybach V12 diesel engine with a top speed of 42 kph/26mph.

Panther x 50
Panther is the common name of a medium tank deployed by Nazi Germany in World War II from mid-1943 to the end of the European war in 1945. It was intended as a counter to the Soviet T-34, and as a replacement for the Panzer III and Panzer IV. While never replacing the latter, it served alongside it and the heavier Tiger tanks until the end of the war. The Panther's excellent combination of firepower, mobility, and protection served as a benchmark for other nations' late war and post-war tank designs, and it is regarded as one of the best tanks of World War II. The tank carried a high velocity 75mm main gun, as well as two MG-34 machine guns. The vehicle was powered by a 690 horsepower engine, giving it a top speed of 55 kph (34 mph). The tank was protected by 15-120mm of armor.

Jagdtiger x25
=Autocratic East Europan Imperial Alliance= A conglomerate of nations united under the rule of the East Europan Emperor, commonly referred to as "The Empire."

The Industrial Revolution that occurred when ragnite was discovered as a useful energy source saw the nations of eastern Europa, pioneers in machine technology, rise to power. Already tightly bound by a network of marriages amongst their royalty, these nations now joined hands in a formal international alliance.

While not technically an autocracy, the emperor enjoys limitless authority within the alliance. The Empire retains customs and practices held over from medieval times, and its people are known to harbor conservative views including a strong hatred for the Darcsen race, who are often put into forced labor camps to provide labour and materials for the Empire.

The culture of the Imperial Alliance still has strong roots in medieval times. This influence can be seen in the armor that the soldiers wear, and in in the vows of fealty that each soldier makes to the king.

The Empire places a heavy emphasis on armor and large caliber weapons, with many of its tanks greatly out-massing their Federation and Gallian counterparts. The latest weapons developed by the Empire include a variety of superheavy tanks (Batomys-class) and even a terrestrial dreadnaught, Marmota.

The Empire declared war on the Federation after the scarcity of Ragnite elevated tensions, sparking the Second Europan War. The Empire used its military superiority to quickly put the Federation on the defensive. Emboldened by their progress and momentum, the Empire decided to invade the neutral Principality of Gallia in order to seize its rich Ragnite deposits. The invasion force was led personally by Prince Maximilian and his Drei Stern, but was eventually defeated through the efforts of the Gallian militia. After the Empire's invasion failed, the Federation launched a counterattack, succeeding in advancing deep into the Empire's northeastern territories. Nevertheless, the Empire still controlled a large swathe of Federation territory in the south and the two sides remain deadlocked.

After the Second Europan War, the Empire signed a treaty ending its war with Gallia. As part of the agreement, members of the Imperial nobility were sent to Gallia ostensibly to help further ties between the two nations. In reality, they were hostages against any new attempts by the Empire to invade. =Order of Battle=

ZM Kar-1
Crafted by the Empire's top arms maker, Zechmeister (ZM Corp), this rifle is one of the factors that enabled the Imperial armies to sweep across Europa. Substantially lighter than conventional rifles, the ZM Kar greatly improved unit mobility and won the thanks of those forced to carry them on their march. Its distinctive axe shape earned it the nickname "Francisca" among its users. The weapon will be assumed to have a range similar to that of the Gewehr 43, and to be a semi-automatic weapon with a ten-round magazine of 7.62mm rounds.

ZM MP4
This remodeled ZM MP boasts a modified barrel allowing for the use of specialty rounds without any loss in performance. Its construction remains 90% true to the original, meaning that the existing pool of mass-produced MPs could be converted into their B-series cousins by swapping out a few simple parts. Despite being introduced relatively late in the war, this line of firearms saw a considerable amount of use in the field. The ZM MP4 fires 9mm rounds from a magazine which, for the purposes of this match, will hold 30 rounds.

ZM SG-1
The ZM SG based on an infantry gun carried by many of the Empire's soldiers during EW1, particularly noted for its firing accuracy. The SG also featured a Rudolf Co. variable small arms scope. Lauded for its accuracy and uncommonly shock-resistant barrel, it first saw use with the Empire's mountain ranger units. Though the ZM SG's design allowed for a bayonet to be affixed under the muzzle, there are very few instances of it being used during the Second Europan War. The weapon appears to be a bolt-action weapon, and has a magazine similar in length to that of the Gewehr 43, suggesting a ten-round capacity.

VB PL-2 Anti-Tank Lance
The VB PL-2 is a 105mm weapon weapon similar to the real-world Panzerfaust, although unlike the Panzerfaust, it seems to be reloadable. The weapon resembles a medieval lance, with the tip firing off at the target, and is designed to be fired from the hip. It will be assumed to have similar range to real-life WWII-era rocket launchers.

===

Imperial Light Tank x 400
The Imperial Light Tank is a 24 ton vehicle, meaning it likely has light armor. The Imperial tank carries a 45mm main gun, giving firepower equivalent to the German Panzer III, as well as a short-barreled 85mm mortar for light artillery work and a 7.62mm machine gun. The tank has a 330 horsepower engine and a top speed of 45 kilometers per hour.

Imperial Medium Tank x 200
The Imperial Medium Tank is essentially to a heavier version the light variant, weighing in at 38 tons, with heavier armor and a 76mm main gun. The tank also carries an 85mm mortar and two 9mm machine guns, one mounted in the bow of the tank and one in a smaller rear turret. While the rear machine gun makes the tank more dangerous to attack from behind, it also means the main turret cannot rotate a full 360 degrees, only about 180, a potentially fatal flaw in a tank battle. The tank had a top speed of 38 kph and a 550 horsepower engine.

Imperial Heavy Tank x 100
The Imperial Heavy Tank is the heaviest armored vehicle of the Empire, weighing 45 tons armed with long-barreled 76mm main gun, as well as a massive 122mm mortar. The tank also carries two machine guns. Like the medium, the turret's traverse is limited by the presence of a loading crane on the back of the tank for the mortar. This would make it an easy target for tanks attacking from the rear. The tank has a 600 hp engine and a top speed of 32 kph.

Lupus Regnum x 25
The Lupus Regnum is the heaviest "conventional" tank deployed by the East Europan Empire (not counting ultra heavy tanks and land dreadnaughts). The tank is heavily armored, with a well-sloped glacis plate. The tank is armed with a powerful 122mm main gun and a 9mm machine gun as a secondary weapon. While well armored, the Lupus Regnum is vulnerable to guns smaller than its own, namely an 85mm (and thus the German 88 will be a viable weapon). Unlike other Europan tanks, its turret does not appear to have obstructions to traversing 360 degrees.

Tank Destroyer x 50
The 41 ton Imperial tank destroyer is a casemate vehicle with a non-traversing 85mm gun originally designed for use against airships (heavier than air aircraft do not exist in the VC universe as they are considered a "Darcsen idea", a concept similar to how the Nazis initially rejected the atomic bomb as "Jewish science"). However, after the 85mm proved effective against tanks as well, it was used in a tank destroyer. The vehicle also carries a forward machine gun, and has a top speed of 35 kph thanks to its 600hp engine.

WHO IS DEADLIEST?! =Combatants=

Godlike Powers
Cthulhu is a vastly powerful entity which, while not possessing true omnipotence, still has godlike power so vast that it cannot be truly comprehended by humans. This power could no doubt be used to cause devastating damage to any foe.

Insanity
The mere appearance of Cthulhu is able to cause insanity in the beholder. While the exact level of impact varies from individual, with some being able to resist his power momentarily (as seen in the Norwegian captain who wounded Cthulhu and delayed his return by ramming him with his ship), any mere human will be overwhelmed eventually. Nagato, however, is no mere mortal...

Massive Size
Cthulhu is the described as being mountainous in size, which would no doubt be able crush many smaller and weaker adversaries with simple brute force.

Flight
Cthulhu posesses massive dragon-like wings, which will, for the purposes of this match, allow him to fly.

Telepathy
Cthulhu is capable of telepathically communicating with humans, his communications typically manifesting in insanity-causing dreams. This sometimes results in the targets of these dreams establishing cults of Cthulhu.

Alien Biology
Cthulhu's alien biology is unlike anything for earth. While he can be wounded and "killed", he cannot truly die in human terms. When killed, Cthulhu will go dormant for countless millenia, until reawakened, either unwittingly or intentionally by humans. During these periods of "death", Cthulhu is still capable of telepathically communicating through dreams, with the goal of causing a human to revive him. Only a being of power rivaling that of Cthulhu himself, or greater can truly destroy him permanently.... However, for the purposes of this match, Yuki Nagato may be just such a being...

=Strident-class heavy frigate (Halo) vs "Death Star Mode" Kongou (Arpeggio of Blue Steel)=

Strident-class heavy frigate
The Strident-class heavy frigate is a frigate class employed in the Post-War UNSC Navy; utilized primarily for escort of larger capital ships and for rapid offensive engagement. UNSC Infinity carries ten vessels of this class within internal docking bays. The vessel was the first UNSC frigate design to implement energy shields, reverse engineered from Covenent technology. The ship also carries a Mark IV Magnetic Accelerator Cannon (MAC), Three Hyperion nuclear missiles, a large compliment of Archer Missiles and a number of point defense guns.

At least one of these vessels, UNSC Eminent Domain, assisted during the Battle of Draetheus V. It destroyed hundreds of Spirits and outmaneuvered the Covenant vessels in an attempt to deploy a unit of Orbital Drop Shock Troopers before it was heavily damaged and crashed into the surface of X50.

During the Second Battle of Requiem, UNSC Infinity deployed her compliment of Strident-class frigates shortly after arriving at the shield world; at least two would survive the initial phase of combat.

- Tuco Salamanca Tuco Salamanca is a drug kingpin operating for the Juarez Cartel in Albuquerque and part of a lineage of criminals in his family. His uncle was a drug runner before his disability and his cousins are hitmen for the cartel. Tuco is eventually eventuallly approached by Jesse Pinkman, who offers him some methamphetamine. Tuco loves the product but isn't satisfied about the price, but still offers Pinkman a bag of money. He then proceeds to pummel him to the ground with the bag and sends him to the hospital. Pinkman's associate, only known as Heisenberg confronts Tuco and gives him a bag of "meth". Heisenberg then throws the supposed meth and reveals that is is fuliminated mercury. Shocked but forced to cooperate, Tuco gives him his money and proceeds to make a deal, Heisenberg and Pinkman give Tuco meth and they get their money. But one deal reveals Tuco's crazier side, as he pummels one of his men to the ground after a brief misunderstanding. His safehouse is raided by the DEA but wasn't caught. Tuco takes Heisenberg and Pinkman to a safehouse in the desert where his uncle, Hector lives. Tuco plans to take them south of the border to cook meth and with his connections, would be untouchable. While in the safehouse, Tuco finds that Heisenberg's real name is Walter Hartwell White. Tuco then finds that one of his men, Gonzo, isn't answering his phone calls. Unbeknownst to him, Walter knows that Gonzo is dead after his DEA agent brother in law Hank Schrader sent him pictures of his corpse after finding it in a junkyard. The group sit down for a meal, but Walter puts a bit of ricin into Salamanca's meal. But with the intervention of Hector, Tuco's life is saved but in a rage, takes the two out and plans to execute them with his M4A1. In a skirmish with Jesse though, he is shot in the abdomen with his Jericho 941 pistol. He survives the gunshot, but Schrader arrives on the scene, looking for his missing brother. Recognizing Tuco's face, Schrader enters a firefight with Salamanca after he pulls out his gun and shoots him in the head with his Glock 22. Unknowingly, Walter was there and fleeing the crime scene. Later, Tuco's cousins would try to retaliate for their cousin's death by attempting to take Walter's life.

Jericho 941
The Jericho 941, also known as the Baby Eagle, is a semi-automatic pistol made by Israeli Weapon Industries. While it is marketed in the US as the "Baby Eagle", except for minor cosmetic similarities, the Jericho has nothing in common with the Desert Eagle. Tuco's Jericho will be assumed to be chambered for 9mm ammunition, with a fifteen-round box magazine.

M4 Carbine with scope and taped magazines
The M4 Carbine is a series of firearms based upon the design of the M16 rifle. It was designed to be a light version of the M16A2 with selective fire options. Created in the United States, the M4 was in service since 1997. The weapon is gas-operated, cooled by air, and has a telescoping stock. The carbine was created, like most carbines, to function like a rifle but have a lighter weight and greater portability. The M4 is slightly less accurate and has less stopping power. The carbine will later shift into the standard firearm for the American armed forces. 35 nations have the M4 as part of their arsenal and is widely used by both their armies and special forces. The M4 has an effective range of 500 meters and a rate of fire of 750-900 rounds per minute. Tuco's M4 has an ACOG scope and a taped dual 30-round magazine meaning every other magazine change will be faster, as he will simply need to flip to the second magazine.

=Lio Shirazumi= "A homicidal maniac... I didn't have this name, but society gave me this name. Its spot on!"

Lio Shirazumi is the antagonist in the two Kara No Kyoukai movies, A Study in Murder Parts I and II. Shirazumi was a Japanese highschool student a couple years older than Shiki Ryougi and Mikiya Kokutou as of April 1995, and fell in love Shiki. Lio stalking Shiki everywhere she went and secretly recording on video. Lio finally worked up the courage to ask Shiki out, but she rejected him, and to add insult to injury, Shiki tells him that "she does not like weak people". Determined to prove he is not weak, Lio provokes a local delinquent and bully into attacking him by repeatedly beating him at an arcade game. Lio then lures the delinquent into a dark alley and bludgeons him to death. Lio, realizing he has to destroy the evidence, sees only one solution: cannibalism.

As Lio starts to consume the body, he is met by Araya Souren, a 300-year old immortal sorceror who tells him that he is insane, and then offers to "unlock the origin of his soul". Araya's actions unleash Lio's origin of "consumption", causing a compulsion to commit murder and cannibalism, as well granting him super human speed, strength and pain tolerance, as well as partial regeneration (he is able to regenerate lost body parts, but not immediately, suggesting that if he were, for instance, decapitated or shot in the head, he would still die), as well as developing a set of retractable claws.

Araya also gave him the knowledge that Shiki also has repressed sociopathic tendencies and dissociative identity disorder, as Araya intended to provoke Shiki in order to harness her powers for himself. Lio attempts to provoke Shiki into committing murder by committing a series of brutal murders and making it appear that Shiki committed the murders as her sociopathic male second personality (Also named Shiki, but with an alternate masculine spelling in Japanese). Shortly afterwards, Shiki is hit by a truck and ends up in a coma for two years, and Lio ceases his crimes.

Shiki awakens from her coma in 1998, but it is not until 1999 that Lio discovers that she is still alive, and the series of murders continue. Shiki and Mikiya Kokutou investigate the murders, as well as their connection to a new drug cocktail known as "Bloodchip", as well as new marijuana formulation. Mikiya discovers the Lio has been manufacturing drugs laced with a his own magically modified blood, which can cause insanity, though they are often fatal.

Lio confronts Shiki in a dark alley, dressed in an outfit similar to her own, and tells her that that Mikiya is holding her back for her true nature. The two fight, with Lio losing his arm. Lio nonetheless escapes.

Shiki tracks Lio to his lair, a warehouse where he grows his modified marijuana. Shiki fights Lio, but Lio knocks her unconcious and handcuffs her with a pipe, before licking her all over her body, suggesting that he intends to rape, murder, and consume her. Meanwhile, Mikiya traces the source of the drugs to the warehouse where he is ambushed and severely injured by Lio, who believes that he has killed him. Lio then returns to Shiki, but finds she had escaped her binds. Lio quickly confronts attacks Shiki with a newly-grown set of claws and attacks each of her limbs while she is concious, but still incapacitated by the muscle relaxant drug. Before he kills her, Lio tells Shiki that he killed Mikiya. Infuriated at the loss of her love, Shiki regains her strength and attacks with her knife, severing all four of Lio's limbs, before stabbing him the back, killing him. Shiki then falls unconcious, only to be woken up by a wounded, but not dead Mikiya, who has since regained conciousness.

Hunting Knife
Lio Shirazumi's primary weapon of choice is a large hunting knife about a foot long. The weapon is similar in appearance to military combat knife, with a serrated blade edge on one side and a clip point.

Metal Pipe
At one point, Lio also uses a metal pipe, about 3 feet long for the purposes of this match, as a blunt instrument. For the purposes of this match, he will have one available.

Bloodchip Drug
Lio created the "Bloodchip" drug to turn sufficiently violent individuals with a violent "origin" similar to his own into a human monster similar to himself. However, on most people, it is either simply fatal or causes insanity. That said, we cannot know how it will effect Tuco- we cannot really know his "origin" as such a thing does not exist in the Breaking Bad (or any realistic) universe, but he is certainly violent, so this is a bit of a roll of the dice for Lio: it might kill him, might cause crippling insanity... but it also might turn Tuco into something similar to Lio himself...

Partial Regeneration
Lio Shirazumi's transformations have given him to ability to regenerate lost body parts. When Shiki cuts off one of his arms in their first fight, he regrows it within a day. However, this regeneration seems to take several hours, so it will be assumed that if he sustains damage that could kill him instantly or almost instantly, such as a bullet to the head or heart will kill him. While he won't be able to regenerate in this fight, Lio is able to keep fighting with wounds that would cripple any normal man (such as the loss of an arm).

Claws
When Shirazumi nears the end of his transformation, in his final battle with Shiki Ryougi, he develops a set of retractable claws on his hands, similar to those of a lion or tigers. Along with his superhuman speed and strength, these claws allow Lio to kill with all lethality of a predatory animal.

=Anime Electric Battle Royale= Four anime characters with the power of electricity clash:

Hei, the mysterious Chinese contractor who delivers lethal electric shocks through his metallic rope dart.

Mikoto Misaka, the Academy City's "Railgun" who turns arcade tokens into lethal projectiles.

Kanon Ozu, the radiation-proof, lightning-shooting clone of a convicted serial killer.

Kong Taoluo, the Triad assassin who uses his bio-electricity to generate an EMP pulse, slaying cyborgs in a futuristic Shanghai.

WHO IS DEADLIEST!?

=Hei=

"A night sky full of cries, hearts filled with lies. The contract, is it worth the price? A soul pledged to the darkness. Now I've lost it, I know I can kill. The truth exists beyond the gate."

- Darker than Black opening

Hei (黒（ヘイ), Hei), also known as the Black Reaper (黒の死神, Kuro no Shinigami) or BK-201 (or "Chinese Electric Batman" by fans), is a contractor, or human who gained superhuman powers from a mysterious phenomen known as "Hell's Gate", in Hei's case, the ability to manipulate the molecular structure of objects and generate electricity. He is the main protagonist of the anime Darker than Black.

Before he became a Contractor, Hei was a caring brother who looked after his little sister Bai. Despite his age Hei seemed to be the guardian of Bai. During a meteor shower his sister became a Contractor, with the ability to control and change matter on a molecular level, causing her to become the original BK-201. Soon after, Bai was recruited into a secretive organization known as the Syndicate. Although Hei hated killing, he did so anyway so as to be with his sister, and not view her as just a senseless killer. He became so good at fighting, that even before he obtained his Contractor power, he became known as "The Black Reaper".

During the "Heaven's War", Bai went missing with the rest of Hei's team. Hei then came into possession of Bai's power and took over as the new "BK-201". He continued to serve the Syndicate in hopes of finding out what happened in South America's Heaven's Gate, and more importantly what happened to his sister. Hei also has a past history with the leader of the Evening Primrose and former Syndicate co-worker, Amber.

Hei is a young man, with black hair and dark blue eyes. When off duty, Hei can be seen in the casual attire of a Chinese transfer student. When operating as a Contractor, however, Hei dons a black, bullet-proof trench coat and a white mask.

Later, after the events that transpire at Hell's Gate, Hei allows his hair to grow out to shoulder length; though he often keeps it tied in a ponytail. He also now wears a purple and black jacket and a snow cap on his head. Hei also appears to have neglected shaving.

Shortly after this, however, Hei cuts his hair back to normal length, shaves, and returns to his "Black Reaper" attire.

Hei is a skiled in unarmed combat and knife fighting, and is almost superhumanly agile. The most powerful ability he possesses, however, is the ability to generate and discharge electricity through conductive media (i.e. he cannot discharge it through air or concrete) at sufficiently high amounts to kill grown men or short out a building's electrical systems. To make up for his inability to discharge through the air, Hei uses a rope dart made made from a metal wire to attack from a distance by piercing his enemies and then electrocuting them. The wire also has a carabiner attached that allows Hei to use it as a grappling hook.

The power is more than simple electric shocks, as he can alter matter on the quantum level. He has shown the ability to transform integral particles on the quantum level. He is capable of special particle luminance, meaning he is able to change molecules similar to how humans are changed into contractors. This ability is also one of the most, if not the most, powerful and coveted powers known as it is the only one capable of altering gate particles at will. This ability is not actually his as he is really only human, but it was granted to him when his sister fused with him.

(Modified from Darker Than Black Wiki)

Daggers
Hei carries a pair of large daggers, about 20 inches length (based on a cosplay model), with about half of that being the blade itself. The weapons have a double-edged blade, split in the middle, presumably to save weight. Hei is capable of of using the knives with extreme skill in close combat, using either dual wielding the blades or using only one of them.

Rope Dart
In addition to using them as regular knives, Hei can use his daggers as a rope dart by attaching them to a metal wire. The wire is at least 20 feet long, possibly longer, and and is strong enough to hold Hei's weight, as he frequently uses it as a grappling hook to swing from steel girders etc. The wire can also be used as garrote and, most lethally, Hei used it in combination with his electricity generating powers to electrocute foes from a distance.

Electricity Generation
Hei possesses the ability to generate and discharge electricity through conductive media (i.e. he cannot discharge it through air or concrete, however, it will conduct through metal and water. He can also electrocute a target through direct contact.) at sufficiently high amounts to kill grown men or short out a building's electrical systems. To make up for his inability to discharge through the air, Hei uses a rope dart made made from a metal wire to attack from a distance by piercing or entangling his enemies and then electrocuting them.

Bulletproof Coat
Hei's Black Trenchcoat is show a number of times in the anime to be bulletproof, capable of stopping modern handgun bullets.

=Misaka Mikoto= "It's game over for you now!"

- Misaka Mikoto

Misaka Mikoto (御坂 美琴 Misaka Mikoto?) (born May 2) is a main heroine in Toaru Majutsu no Index and the main protagonist of Toaru Kagaku no Railgun. Introduced in the first volume of the light novels, her role in the story was later expanded in the third volume as well as the release of the Toaru Kagaku no Railgun manga, making her the main heroine of the science side and the second main heroine of the series.

She is the third ranked Level 5 esper in Academy City, and is nicknamed the Railgun due to her signature move. Kamijou Touma coined the nickname Biri-Biri (ビリビリ?) (a Japanese onomatopoeia imitating the sound of electricity) for her and whenever the two meet he usually calls her that, even after his amnesia.

(From To Aru series wiki)

Electrical Discharge
Mikoto is capable of immense electrical discharges, said to be up to 1 billion volts. This level of electricity manipulation allows her to shoot a "spear of lightning" enemies, or even summon down lightning.

"Railgun"
Mikoto can fire magnetic objects at three times the speed of sound by forming parallel currents on both sides of her arm with her electricity. Her railgun has a muzzle velocity of 1030 m/s (2307.2 mph), and can be fired at a rate of 8 shots per minute. She has hinted she can fire multiple coins at once creating a Rail-Shotgun, however this has never been seen. She primarily uses arcade coins as her projectiles for portability, limiting her normal range to 50 meters. (From To aru series wiki)

Electromagnetism/Iron Particle Sword
Mikoto can use electromagnetism to attract and repel metallic materials and use it to her advantage. Examples include creating a make-shift shield out of scrap metal, walking on walls and ceilings, as well as attracting iron particles in the ground around her. Using her magnetic powers, Mikoto can form a "whip sword" by gathering iron sand, manipulating it into a sword that she can lengthen into a whip at will. By making the sand particles of the blade vibrate, she can dramatically increase the weapon's cutting power into something resembling that of a chainsaw.

Flight
Using formulas similar to those she use for her Iron Sand sword, Mikoto can fly if she is surrounded by a large amount of atomised water vapor. She manipulated the water vapor forming it into wings using the static electricity from interactions between particles. By using her electric power to induce electrolysis on a large body of water such as the ocean, she can obtain enough hydrogen and oxygen to use as fuel

Electromagnetic "Radar"
Mikoto can sense and release electromagnetic waves around her to enable her to see the image of the room three-dimensionally without the use of her sight. =Kong Taoluo=

- Touko Natori on why she fears nightmares more than reality.

Touko Natori is the daughter of a JSDF officer. As such, she is known throughout the academy for her excellent grades, physical fitness, leadership skills, and general reliability. These attributes made Touko a model student who was elected as the class president. After the attack by Trident, Touko took up the role as the leader of the group of students fighting against the mercenaries.

Weapons

Combat Dagger: Touko Natori carries a combat dagger that (at least I think based on the Google Translated novel) she took of the body of George Yoshida, a Trident International Security mercenary. The knife has a double-edged blade similar to a Fairbairn-Sykes Fighting Knife, but a wider grip. The weapon will be assumed to be similar in use, and will be assumed to be balanced for throwing.

Heckler and Koch USP: The Heckler & Koch USP is a semi-automatic pistol made by the famous Heckler & Koch. The weapon was designed primarily for US law enforcement agencies and for the civilian market. The pistol is short recoil operated and fires the 9x19 Parabellum, .357 SIG, .40 S&W, and the .45 ACP. There are 18 variants of the pistol the most commonly used being the USP Compact Tactical. 14 countries currently have the pistol in their arsenal and is being used by police forces and armed forces. For the purposes of this match, the USP will be a 9mm with a 15-round magazine

M4A1 Carbine: The M4 Carbine is a series of firearms based upon the design of the M16 rifle. It was designed to be a light version of the M16A2 with selective fire options. Created in the United States, the M4 was in service since 1997. The weapon is gas-operated, cooled by air, and has a telescoping stock. The carbine was created, like most carbines, to function like a rifle but have a lighter weight and greater portability. The M4 is slightly less accurate and has less stopping power. The carbine will later shift into the standard firearm for the American armed forces. 35 nations have the M4 as part of their arsenal and is widely used by both their armies and special forces. The weapon has a range of 500 meters and a rate of fire 750-900 rpm, firing from a magazine of 30 5.56mm rounds. X-Factors

Yohji Takatsu life was turned upside-down at early age, when his brother was killed in an accident. Since then, he developed a dark, cynical outlook, being emotionally distant towards others, even his own family. Yohji's desire to distance himself from his family, which he associated with his tragic past, led him to enroll in Eastern Private Defense Academy. Since enrolling, he remains distant and withdrawn, his only real social contact being through the internet. The one exception to this is Ann Matsura, a friend of Yohji's since childhood, in spite of his occasional comments about her being "annoying and incomprehensible". Whether or not Yohji is romantically attracted to Ann is unknown. In spite of his social issues, Yohji performed well, fighting alongside Ann in the battle against the Trident Mercenaries.

However, it was her sister, not Nanami who achieved success, becoming a child model. Nanami was initially happy for her sister, but over time, she grew to resent that fact that her family paid large amounts of attention to her sister, while ignoring her. This led Nanami to enroll in Eastern Private Defense Academy in order to distance herself from her family.

For the purposes of this match, the USP will be a 9mm with a 15-round magazine

Howa Type 89: The Howa Type 89 is a Japanese assault rifle designed in 1989 for the Japanese Self-Defense Force to replace the Howa Type 64. The weapon is based off the AR-18 assault rifle, which was produced in Japan for a time until laws prohibiting the export of military hardware from Japan were passed. As such, the Howa Type 89 has never been exported. The weapon fires 5.56mm ammunition from a 30-round magazine (for the purposes of this match), with a range of up to 500m and a rate of fire of 700 rounds/minute.

- Pirate Berserker

Some of Vaas' pirates do not carry firearms, possibly because they are simply unable to afford one, or perhap, given their behavior, they are sociopathic to the point that they prefer killing with a blade. Pirate berserkers, also known as chargers or beheaders, charge at their foes armed with machetes, with no thought for their own safety, and do not wear any body armor. This means that, while they are dangerous up close, they are a relatively target for any competent marksman from a distance.

Pirate shotgunners are a second class of pirate sometimes known as "berserkers". Like the machete-wielding "charger", berserkers will charge at the player, though they are marginally more dangerous as they are armed with shotguns. Like the charger, however, they lack any body armor, and are most vulnerable to long range weapons.

=Henrietta Croche and Triela Hartmann (Gunslinger Girl) vs Kanon and Shion Ozu (Coppelion)= =Henrietta and Triela=

Henrietta
Henrietta was a normal girl living in Italy until her family was brutally murdered and she was wounded. While in hospital, she was taken in by the Italian government's "Social Welfare Agency", which replaced her severely wounded body with state of the art cybernetics. But the "Social Welfare Agency" was no charity. The agency was a cover for creating cybernetic child soldiers for use against the mafia and a separatist terrorist organization known as the Five Republics Faction. Henrietta was placed with a "handler", an ex-military police officer named Guise Croche, and sent on black operations against terrorists. Henrietta's preferred weapons are an FN P90 submachine gun SIG Sauer P239 handgun.

Bayonet
=Kanon and Shion Ozu=

Kanon
Kanon Ozu is a Coppelion, as genetically engineered human immune to radiation, and a character in the anime and manga Coppelion. She was created in 2036, in a future Japan where Tokyo was abandoned because of nuclear accident that irradiated the entire city. Kanon and her sister Shion were both clones of actress Kuon Ozu, who was later discovered to be a serial killer. Both Kanon and Shion inherited their mother's violent, sadistic personality. After discovering the Coppelion were intentionally engineered to have a short lifespan, both Kanon and Shion made it their mission to take revenge against humanity. As of now, in the anime, they are currently aiding the 1st Division in their attempt to blow up the "sarcophagus" around the melted-down Odaiba Nuclear Reactor, sending radiation high into the atmosphere.

Powers
Kanon was spliced with the genes of an electric eel, giving herself the ability to create powerful electric discharges at will. These discharges can travel through the air, as well as any conductive media such as metal and water, however, if Kanon uses the attack near water, she may electrocute herself.

=Royal Rumble! Henry VIII vs Sultan Murad IV= Henry VIII, the Tudor monarch well known for his six wives... and for carrying a pistol-mace-spear combination weapon.

VS

Sultan Murad IV, the violent Ottoman sultan known for carrying a massive mace and two-handed sword both said to weigh over 100 pounds.

WHO IS DEADLIEST?! =Combatants=

Murad IV
=Leader's Weapons=

"Henry's Walking Staff"
Henry VIII's carried a combination mace-spear-pistol, which he sometimes used as a walking stick, thus it's nickname "Henry's Walking Staff". The weapon had three matchlock pistol barrels in the head (I could not find whether they could be fired individually or all at once, but for the purposes of this match, it will be able to do both). The weapon also had a head covered in armor piercing spikes, for use like a mace, and a spike on the top, for use as a spear. The weapon had a handle that appears to be about 5-6 feet long.

Giant Mace (Murad)
Murad IV carried a large mace said to weigh 60 kilograms (132 pounds) and that no one was able to lift it apart from Murad himself. While I tend to be skeptical of these numbers, Ottoman maces, particularly ceremonial maces, tend to be quite heavy. In general, Ottoman maces either flanged or had a round head without spikes.

119's Edge
Both weapons are heavy and unwieldy, but Murad's seems more so, in spite of the Sultan's supposed strength. Also, Henry's mace has three guns attached, giving it a definite range advantage.

Two-Handed Sword (Henry)
Henry VIII also has a large, two-handed sword about five feet long. The weapon is typical of blades of two-handed swords of the era, being intended to chop through the shafts of polearms for use against formations of pikemen, or else for slashing off a horse's legs, before finishing off the rider when used against cavalry.

Hundred-Pound Sword (Murad)
Sultan Murad IV owned a large longsword said to weight over 100 pounds. I was unable to find many details on the weapon, but I did find an image of several large European-style two-handed swords displayed at the Tokapi palace in Istanbul. It is likely that Murad's longsword was similar to one of these blades.

119's Edge
Both weapons are large two-handed swords, and, as I am skeptical of the weight figure of Murad's blade, I will call this even for now. =Guard's Weapons=

Longsword (Henry)
The term "longsword" refers to a longer sword than the arming sword, while having the same basic shape of the arming sword, but having a length of up to about one and a half meters, designed more for thrusting, but still capable of cutting. The sword was used from the mid 1300s to the mid 1500s. The weapon was also known as a "hand and a half", as it can be used one or two handed. The Longsword fell out of favor in military service starting around the 1520s, with the introduction of the Swiss Sabre.

Kilij (Murad)
The kilij is a Turkish sword based on older Central Asian weapons used since. The kilij first appeared sometime in the late Middle Ages, and was definitely in use by the time of the late 1400s. The weapon has a slightly curved blade made of high carbon steel, with a reinforced point that is significantly wider than the rest of the blade with a false edge. This gave the kilij formidable cutting ability. The kilij often had a hook-shaped pommel. The kilij was used not only by the Turks, but also in parts of Eastern Europe that had contact with the Ottoman Empire.

119's Edge
The weapon are similar in length, however, I give a slight edge to the kilij, as it is capable of delivering lethal slashes- it cut a pig carcass clean in half in an episode of Deadliest Warrior, and is also capable of thrusting, with its reinforced point.

Bill/Billhook (Henry)
Derived originally from the agricultural billhook, the bill consisted of a hooked chopping blade with several pointed projections mounted on a staff. The end of the cutting blade curves forward to form a hook, which is the bill's distinguishing characteristic. In addition, the blade almost universally had one pronounced spike straight off the top like a spear head, and also a hook or spike mounted on the 'reverse' side of the blade. There were many types of bill. English bills tended to be relatively short, with broad chopping heads, while Italian bills (ronche) often had very long thrusting points. The English distinguished between several varieties of bill, including the black, brown and forest bills, but the differences between them are currently not fully understood.

Ottoman Halberd (Murad)
The halberd is a type of polearm combining an axe head, spear point, and spike or hook for unhorsing cavalry. The weapon was effective as it allowed a foot soldier to combat cavalry by using the spear head to prevent cavalry from closing in, the hook for pulling knights off horseback, and the axe head for delivering a killing blow capable of piercing armor. The weapon was, like the pike commonly used by forces of peasant conscripts or rebels, as it was cheap, yet efficient to use. The Ottoman version of the halberd was identical in use to the European version of the weapon, with only cosmetic differences.

119's Edge
Murad's Halberd, for its greater versatility.

Shield Pistol (Henry)
During the time of Henry VIII, the British royal guard were armed with matchlock shield pistols. The weapons consisted of a short-barreled matchlock firearm in the center of a buckler. The shield pistol was presumably used in combination with a sword as an off-hand weapon, with the shield used to parry incoming blows and the pistol used at practically point blank range, as pistols were often used at the time.

Wheellock Pistol (Murad)
The wheellock mechanism is a mechanism of firearm operation in use in the late 1500s and early 1600s. The wheellock worked using a spring-loaded wheel, which was wound up and, upon pulling the trigger, the spring released, spinning the wheel, while at the same time a spring loaded arm with a small piece of iron pyrite, called the dog, struck the spinning wheel, creating a spark, which ignited the gunpowder in the pan, and subsequently the main charge in a manner similar to a modern cigarette lighter. The wheellock mechanism's main advantage over the matchlock was that was self-igniting, not requiring a slow-burning match, and was smaller, allowing for greater concealability. The wheellock was used mainly in pistols, as it was more expensive than the matchlock, and had to be wound up before it could be fired, slowing the reloading process. The wheellock was later replaced by snaphance and flintlock firearms in the 1600s.

119's Edge
While the wheellock's more conventional design might make it easier to aim, pistols of the period were used at practically point blank range. The wheellock has a more advanced ignition system, however, the shield pistol is more versatile, being able to block incoming sword attacks as well as being used as a pistol.

Matchlock Musket (Both)
The matchlock musket, also known as an arquebus, is an early firearm, and the first to have a mechanism recognizable as a trigger. The weapon was fired using a mechanism that held a slow burning cord, the "match" in place until the trigger was pulled, at which point the mechanism would move the match downward, into the firing pan, igniting the powder in the pan as well as the main charge. Some variants, known as snap matchlocks used a small spring to force the match down into the pan. The matchlock musket improved on the earlier Hand Cannon, as the mechanism held the match in place, meaning it was less likely that a soldier would drop the match, for instance. However, it had many of the same drawbacks as the hand cannon. Specifically, the matchlock was a smoothbore weapon, meaning it was innaccurate at ranges of over 50-100 meters, and only truly effective when used in formation, and could only fire one shot before a length reloading process. Prior to the invention of the bayonet, musketeers had no melee weapons except for the butt on their gun or possibly as sword or dagger, which would be little use against a charging cavalryman, for instance. For that reason, matchlock muskets were used in dense "pike and shot" formations, with pikemen protecting the musketeers, preventing cavalry from closing in. When these formations, along with volley fire techniques in which multiple soldiers took turns firing and reloading, so that there was always a row of men firing, were utilized, however, matchlock firearms proved to be devastating against cavalry. The matchlock musket saw use throughout Europe, as well as in the Middle East, India, and eventually East Asia, where matchlocks, known to the Japanese as tanegashima, after the island where they were introduced by the Portuguese and quickly became popular with samurai warlords such as Oda Nobunaga, who appreciated their ease of use, allowing even peasant- foot soldiers to use them with minimal training, yet cause devastating damage to cavalry when used in formation. Matchlocks were used through the 1500s and into the 1600s, being slowly replaced by wheellock and flintlock designs, though not being completely replaced in the 1720s. =X-Factors=

Explanations
While Henry commanded troops during a war with the French, he did not have as much combat experience as Murad, who personally lead his troops into battle on multiple occasions during a war with the Safavids. Both men were highly trained, as it was customary for royalty of the period to regularly practice with military arts such as swordsmanship. I give Henry a higher rate for armor as images of Henry's plate armor seemed to provide more per all-around protection than contemporary Ottoman suits of armor. Murad, however, was legendary for his physical strength, being able to wield a massive sword and mace. He was known to able to win wrestling matches against four opponents at once. However, for all his strength, Murad's mental health was rather poor. He was known to be a raging alcoholic (in spite of prohibiting consumption of alcohol in his empire), and to be extremely violent, and would attack on impulse. For instance, he would attack people in the streets of Constantinople with his mace or sword if he saw them breaking laws or even if they simply angered him. There are even claims that on occasion, late in the night, he ran out of the palace partly naked, armed with his sword, and killed anyone in his path. Henry was brutal, and more than willing to kill anyone who got in his way, but he was still in touch with reality (although perhaps less so in his later years, but this match features a younger Henry).

=Smaug (The Hobbit) vs The Third Recon Team (Gate)= Smaug, the last of the dragons of Middle Earth, whose devastated the dwarven kingdom of Erebor and the human city of Dale

VS

The Third Recon Team, the JSDF unit sent through a portal to a fantasy world of dragons, elves, and low tech, but hostile armies.

WHO IS DEADLIEST? =Smaug= One of the last of the great Fire Drakes of Middle-Earth, the dragon known as Smaug was a horrifying sight for the free peoples who were unfortunate enough to encounter his fearsome visage. Infamous, not only for his cruelty and strength, but for his cunning and creative mind, Smaug often made careful plans that would only result in his personal gain, eventually culminating in his destructive invasion of the Misty Mountains, killing many of the Dwarves who lived there and stealing their countless treasures from them, making their mountain halls his home.

Smaug spent most of his days after this invasion resting, basking in his newly begotten treasures. So long did he lay upon his bed of jewels and coins, the riches began to stick to his stomach- the soft, vulnerable area that was exploited to kill many of his kind. This armor was incredibly effective, allowing him to be neigh unstoppable when he did chose to take to the skies and terrorize the locals, including the Men of Dale.

Smaug's many years of terrorizing was finally ended when a Hobbit, Bilbo Baggins, joined a group of Dwarf survivors of his attack on the Misty Mountains, including prince Thorin Oakenshield, and guided by Gandalf. This group planned to take back the mountain, and their efforts awoke the fury of Smaug, who launched an attack on the nearby Laketown, where Bard the Bowman took advantage of a small gap in Smaug's armor, shooting a magic black arrow into the Dragon's chest. Left mad, but still fighting, the villagers mounted an attack on the fallen dragon, and while many died, Smaug eventually fell to another strike to the chest.

Fire Breath
Smaug possesses the signature ability of most dragons of fantasy, notably the ability to breath fire. Smaug's breath is depicted in the movie as a flamethrower-like blast capable of being projected at least 50 meters. The flames are hot enough to instantly ignite human flesh, as well as wood and foliage.

Claws and Teeth
For close combat, Smaug possesses a set of razor-sharp claws and teeth. He describes his teeth as "swords" and claws as "spears", suggesting he is skilled at using them in combat.

Tail
In his threatening monologue to Bilbo, Smaug suggests he is accomplished at using his tail as a weapon as well, describing the "shock of (his) tail" as "a thunderbolt". For the purposes of this match, the tail will carry considerable blunt force given its large mass, capable of easily breaking bones, sending humans flying through the air, an possibly even flipping vehicles.

Armor
The scales of a Dragon of Middle Earth are very thick, capable of deflecting arrow fire, small ceramic grenades (the dwarvish "flashflame" made by Balin in the movie), and even a small siege engine armed with a dwarvish-made "black arrow" is no guarantee of victory. The main weakness of a dragon is the lower body, but, Smaug has laid in a horde of treasure for long enough that gold and gems stick to his body, armoring him. Also, as one would expect from a creature that literally breathes fire, he is also naturally resistant to heat to the point that being covered in molten gold only slowed him briefly.

Against the 21st century firepower of the Third Recon Team, Smaug will be less protected, but still quite resiliant, the thick scales, gold and gem armor, and sheer body mass mean it will, for the purposes of this match, take sustained fire (dozen or more magazines) to bring him down with standard caliber (5.56mm, 7.62mm etc) rounds anywhere accept his underbelly, which, once the gems and gold are stripped away (sustained fire will do this), he will be very vulnerable to small arms fire. Damage will also be greater at close range, and greater from 7.62mm than 5.56mm. .50 caliber rounds will be assumed to be able to take him down even more quickly. A well placed round to a vital point on the underbelly could prove fatal or at least crippling. Also, hits to the eye will blind him in that eye (obviously), and may go straight through to the brain. Hits that go into the mouth will also do sever damage, with a grenade in the mouth or a bullet into the roof of the mouth and instant kill. Grenades will do most damage when they detonate right next to Smaug, while rockets will be instant kills to the head or body, and if they hit a leg, wing, or tail, they will destroy that appendage.

Flight
Smaug, like most dragons of fantasy, possesses large wings on his back with a roughly bat-wing shape, giving him the ability to fly. Given his mass and the limitations of biological flight (muscle power etc), it is likely that Smaug would fly more slowly than any man-made aircraft. For the purpose of this match, he will fly at speeds of up to about 60 miles per hour/ 100 kph in a straight line line, but may reach speeds of up to about 80 miles per hour/ 128 kph or more in a dive.

=Third Recon Team=

Personnel
The 3rd Special Recon Team is a Japanese Self-Defense Force team of 13 soldiers, formed after a portal to a fantasy world appeared in Tokyo and Roman-like army came out and attacked. The attack, however, was easily repulsed by the technologically superior Japanese Self-Defense Force. The JSDF then launched a counterattack through the portal, crushing the Imperial Army, killing over 100,000 of them with machine guns, tanks, and Cobra gunships. The Special Recon Team was formed with the mission of exploring the vast new world, designated the "Special Region" and making contact with the locals. The team soon discovers a village burned the by a dragon, and rescue the lone survivor, an elvish girl named Tuka Luna Marceau. The 3rd Recon Team later makes contact with a convoy of carts and wagons carrying refugees from conflicts in the area in the wake of the power vaccuum after the destruction of the Imperial Army. The dragon returns and attacks the convoy surviving even .50 caliber machine gun fire, but its eyes prove vulnerable. The Recon Team then shoots the dragon with a Panzerfaust 3. The shot was off, not killing the dragon, but still managing to blow its leg off. The dragon then retreats, severely wounded, much to the amazement of the refugees. The 3rd Recon team later encounters two other allies from the new world, a young sorceress in training named Lelei La Lalena and Rory Mercury, a priestess of a war god and self-proclaimed 900+ year old demigoddess known for fighting with a berserker rage with her gigantic battle axe.

Toyota High Mobility Vehicle
First designed in 1995 for the JSDF and manufactured until 2002, the High Mobility Vehicle, marketed to civilians as the Mega Cruiser, is Toyota's answer to the Humvee. The vehicle has a 115 horsepower 4.1 liter diesel engine and a 4-speed automatic transmission. I could not find data on top speed, but the similar Humvee has a top speed of over 70 miles per hour.

Komatsu LAV
The Komatsu LAV (Japanese: 軽装甲機動車; kei-sōkō-kidōsha?), first produced in 2002, is used exclusively by the Japanese Self-Defense Forces, and has seen use in the Iraq War. It is built by Komatsu Ltd. Defense Systems Division in Komatsu, Ishikawa, Japan. Komatsu's factory designator for the vehicle is KU50W.

The exterior resembles the Panhard VBL, used by the French army, but the LAV has 4 doors and a large cabin for carrying soldiers. The LAV can also be transported by air in vehicles like the CH-47J and the C-130H. (From Wikipedia)

The vehicle will, for the purposes of this match, carry a Browning M2 .50 caliber machine gun in a rooftop mount with a square 360 degree gunshield to partially protect the body of the gunner. The vehicle is hardened against assault rifle and rifle caliber rounds including 5.56 and 7.62mm NATO. The vehicle has a top speed of about 100 kilometers per hour.

Mitsubishi Type 74 Light Truck
The Mitsubishi Type 73 Light Truck (73式小型トラック 73-shiki kogata torakku?) is a series of military light trucks that are used as mini SUVs in the JSDF. They have been under production by Mitsubishi Motors since 1973. In JSDF service, it is officially known as the 1/2 Ton Truck. They are powered by Mitsubishi-made 4-cylinder diesel engines with a total of 123 horsepower. (From Wikipedia)

The Type-74 will carry an FN Minimi/M249 SAW light machine gun in a pintle mount.

Bayonet
The M9 Bayonet is a knife bayonet that can double as a combat knife. The weapon can be used mounted onto the end of a rifle (such as the M4 or Howa Type 64), or on its own as a knife. The bayonet has a seven-inch blade.

SiG Sauer P226
The SIG Sauer P220 features a family of pistols based upon the design of the P220. The pistols of this series are semi-autmoatic and fires the 9x19 Parabellum, .45 ACP, and .30 Luger. The series is currently manufactured by Sauer & Sohn and is released from Eckernförde, Germany. The weapon is recoil operated and has a magazine capacity of 7, 9 ,or 10 rounds. The pistol was designed to replace the ex-Swiss standard firearm, the SIG P210. Currently, the pistol family is being used by 18 different countries, in dozens of different military and law-enforcement departments. The weapons series is still in service since 1975. For the purposes of this match, the SIG will have a ten-round magazine.

Magpul PDR
The Magpul PDR (Personal Defense Rifle) is a compact bullpup-style 5.56x45mm carbine being developed by Magpul Industries. Although halted in development, it has garnered some attention, largely due to its "futuristic" appearance. The system consists of a gas-operated bullpup intended to replace some submachine guns, M9 pistols and M4 carbines while still offering the rapid fire and range of a M4 carbine in an ultra compact firearm.

The PDR is one of the few personal defense weapons to use a standard caliber. This decision was made to minimize the logistic burden of the weapon. The method of operation is a short stroke gas piston that may or may not include a two baffle compensator, barrel lengths of between 10.5 to 12.5 inches. It is striker-fired, uses STANAG magazines, features an ambidextrous ejection system, and ambidextrous controls. A Picatinny rail offers mounting for various optics. There is also some indication of integrated lighting and/or laser systems. (From Wikipedia)

For the purposes of this match the Magpul will have a 30-round magazine.

Howa Type 64
The Howa Type 64 (64式自動小銃 Rokujuu-yon-shiki-jidou-shoujuu?), is a Japanese battle rifle used exclusively by the Japan Self-Defense Forces and the Japanese Coast Guard replacing the M1 Garand but later replaced by the Howa Type 89. The weapon fires a 7.62mm NATO round and has an effective range of 400 meters. The Type 64 has a rate of fire of 500 rpm in full auto.

M249 SAW
The Fabrique Nationale Minimi short for "Mini Mitrailleuse" (French: mini machine gun), is a Belgian 5.56mm NATO light machine gun designed as a squad-level fire support weapon. A variant of the weapon is used by the United States Armed Forces under the designation M249 Squad Automatic Weapon. The weapon has a rate of fire of 700-1150 rounds per minute depending on model and a range of up to about a kilometer. The weapon is fed from 200-round linked ammuntion belts or, in an emergency, 30-round STANAG magazine.

Panzerfaust 3
The Panzerfaust 3 is a modern German-made rocket launcher that entered service with the Bundeswehr in 1992, not the be confused with the WWII-era Panzerfaust. The weapon has a range of 920 meters, at which point it will self destruct, though the effective range is typically much shorter. The Panzerfaust 3 can use a variety of warheads, including hollow charge, tandem charge, and anti-bunker warheads. The weapon is equipped with a scope for greater accuracy.

M67 Grenade
The M67 fragmentation grenade is the current standard issue hand grenade for the United States and other military forces worldwide. The grenade was first issued in the 1970s, replacing the M26 and M61 grenades used during the Vietnam War. The grenade is activated by pulling the safety pin and then throwing the grenade. Pulling the pin releases the safety lever or "spoon", however, the spoon should be held in place by the users hand until the grenade is thrown, at which point the spoon releases, activating the fuse.

Rory Mercury
Rory Mercury is a priestess of the war god, Emroy, as well as a self-proclaimed 961-year old demigoddess though she has the appearance of a girl of about 13. Rory wears a clothing simiar to the "gothic lolita" fashion- namely a black, frilly dress with dark purple trim. Rory appears to have superhuman strength, wielding a halberd larger than she is with a berserker rage, cutting down several enemies with each swing of the blade. Rory is the one of the few people in the "Special Region" that are as feared as the JSDF. This violent demeanor has caused Itami to describe her as a "perfect match" for Shino. While Rory is extremely violent and sadistic, she does seem to have a sense of justice, generally killing bandits, raiders, and others who murder innocents, while avoiding killing innocents herself and showing loyalty towards her new allies. Rory later proves herself capable of killing multiple special forces personnel, as well as surviving hits from small arms fire. She is also able to regenerate from wounds, though, she does still feel pain and could potentially be incapacitated from severe damage. It is not known what would happen if she was hit with something capable of completely destroying her body, such as a nuclear weapon, but for the purposes of any matches here, she will still be kill-able if her body is completely destroy, by say, repeated direct explosive impacts or a nuclear weapon, if her severed head is kept separated from the rest of her body for a long period of time (if not truly killing her, at least leaving her a severed head with no offensive abilities) or hit by a powerfully supernatural weapon.

Halberd
Rory Mercury wields a massive battle axe or halberd about seven feet in total length, taller than Rory herself. In spite of the halberd's size, she has no difficulty wielding it. The weapon appears appears to be composed entirely of an unknown metal, painted black. While it does not have the back spike of most halberds, Rory's weapon does have a massive axe blade, perhaps 3 feet long, as well as a 1-1.5 foot spear head on top. The weapon is shown to be incredibly sharp, with Rory being able to decapitate several enemies with one swing. The blade is also durable enough to block assault rifles bullets, a feat Rory is more than fast enough to achieve.

=Battle of the Fantasy Tyrants: Joffery Baratheon (Game of Thrones) vs Zorzal Caesar (Gate: Thus the JSDF Fought There)= Joffery Baratheon, the tyrannical boy-king of the Seven Kingdoms, who orders the executions of countless victims, and reveled in the deaths of innocents

VS

Zorzal Caesar, the bloodthirsty Crown Prince of the Empire, who slaughtered entire races and took their women as sex slaves, until his reign of terror was cut short by an extradimensional modern army.

WHO IS DEADLIEST?!

Joffery Baratheon
"Everyone is mine to torment."

- Joffery Baratheon

Zorzal Caesar
"Their country has been 'mysteriously' annihilated. That poor idiot Tyuule has no idea and still begs me for mercy."

- Zorzal Caesar

Zorzal Caesar is the crown prince of "The Empire", a major power in a parallel universe with a Roman-like society and technology level, where magic and mythical creatures exist. The Empire creates or finds (its not immediately clear) a gate between dimensions, and send and army into the Ginza district of Tokyo. An off-duty Japanese Self Defense Force officer, Youji Itami shows previously unknown leadership skills, taking command of the police, who hole up in the Imperial palace and hold off the Imperial army with handguns, submachine guns, and riot shields until the JSDF arrives and easily crushes the Imperial army, before launching a counteroffensive through the Gate, killing over 100,000 Imperial soldiers with machine guns, tanks, and Cobra gunships.

Zorzal is first featured in chapter 30 of the manga, abusing and raping Tyuule, the former queen of a race similar in appearance to kememomimi- humans with animal ears, Tyuule herself has rabbit-like ears. Zorzal conquered Tyuule's people three years previously, and Tyuule offered herself into his service if he would save the lives of her people. Zorzal, however, unbeknownst to Tyuule, Zorzal ordered her people massacred and took her into sexual slavery, along with several other women from captured nations.

Zorzal later makes a second appearance when Japan sends a peace and disaster relief envoy to the empire after an earthquake, escorted by Youji Itami and his unit, the Third Recon Team. Zorzal arrives in the emperor's throne room, leading several of his sex slaves in chains and collars around their necks. One of them, he states is a Japanese civilian named Noriko, who was kidnapped and taken back across the gate in the first hours of the invasion, before the Empire was decisively defeated. Youji is infuriated, and punches Zorzal in the face. Zorzal orders his guards to kill Youji and his men, but they prove no match for the firepower of their assault rifles. Several of the guards are killed by gunfire or bayonets, before the rest flee in terror. Youji then order a particularly bloodthirsty member of his squad, a female soldier named Shino Kuribayashi, to torture information about any other Japanese prisoners in the Empire out of Zorzal.

Shino does this with extreme enthusiasm, brutally beating Zorzal and breaking his fingers. Zorzal reveals that the captives were taken and sold as slaves. Youji then rescues the captives and leaves the palace. When the Japanese authorities find out about the captives, they send a warning to the empire: evacuate the Imperial senate. The JSDF then send two F-4 Phantoms to bomb the imperial senate as a demonstration of their power. It is later revealed that Tyuule knows that Zorzal ordered her race wiped out, and is plotting to get her revenge. Tyuule intends to kill the Japanese civilian rescued from slavery, and frame the Empire for her death, in order to provoke the Japanese into destroying the Empire in retaliation. =Weapons=

=It Takes A Cloned Killer to Kill a Cloned Killer.... Agent 47 (Hitman) vs Kanon and Shion Ozu (Coppelion)=

Scenario
Hello 47,

Your next mission is highly dangerous, but there will be a large payoff should you succeed. Your targets are Kanon and Shion Ozu, two Coppelion- cloned humans with an immunity to radiation created by the Japanese Self Defense Force to enter areas irradiated in nuclear accidents. The JSDF have authorized this contract after the targets were discovered to have the personality of their genetic donor, a who was later discovered to be a serial killer, and are thus considered too dangerous to be allowed to live. You are to infiltrate the base of the Coppellion project, disguised as a technical school, and eliminate both targets. Be warned that both of your targets are trained in combat, and have other abilities beyond immunity to radiation. Kanon's DNA was spliced with that of an electric eel, giving her the ability to emit electical discharges. Shion's strength is augmented to a greater degree than your own, giving her the ability to easily break concrete with her bare hands. However, they have no immunity to fatal injury. I recommend you use stealth on this one.

-Good Luck, 47 =Agent 47=

Fiber Wire
A Garrote is a weapon used to strangle a target, by either cutting the wind pipe or cutting off air. They can be made from piano wire, a rope, or even a scarf. If it cuts off blood flow to the brain, it can kill in under 5 seconds. 47's garrote is a non-metallic fiber wire designed specifically for the purpose.

Agency Tanto Knife
The Agency Tanto knife is a combat knife with a Tanto-style blade, with a black aniodized coating on the blade, serving both the protect the blade from corrosion and to prevent reflection that might give away the user's position. The weapon is intended mostly for thrusting, but it can also be used for slashing attack, typically aimed at the throat, and as a throwing knife.

Dual Silverballer Pistols
Agent 47 uses a customized AMT Hardballer handgun called the "Silverballer". The Silverballer is an AMT Hardballer, basically a Colt M1911 clone with a stainless steel body, meaning it probably has a range of 30-50 meters. The weapon fires .45 ACP rounds. Agent 47's Silverballer will be equipped with a suppressor and an extended magazine holding 12 rounds. The original AMT Hardballer had a problem with jamming and damage due to galling of the stainless steel, as lubrication at the time was inadequate to prevent this. Agent 47's Silverballer, however, probably has been modified to prevent this.

Remote C-4
Agent 47 often uses C-4 plastic explosives activated with a remote detonator as a weapon, the advantage being that it allows 47 to kill a target from a distance even without a direct line of sight. 47 will often place the charges to drop objects or trigger gas explosions etc, making the target's death look like an accident, or else rig objects such as vehicles to explode when used.

Pickup Weapons
These weapons can be picked up by both parties (47 and Kanon/Shion) in the level, locations/owners in parentheses.

SiG Sauer P220 (Guards, Armory)
The SIG Sauer P220 features a family of pistols based upon the design of the P220. The pistols of this series are semi-autmoatic and fires the 9x19 Parabellum, .45 ACP, and .30 Luger. The series is currently manufactured by Sauer & Sohn and is released from Eckernförde, Germany. The weapon is recoil operated and has a magazine capacity of 7, 9 ,or 10 rounds. The pistol was designed to replace the ex-Swiss standard firearm, the SIG P210. Currently, the pistol family is being used by 18 different countries, in dozens of different military and law-enforcement departments. The weapons series is still in service since 1975.

Smith and Wesson Model 629 (Kanon and Shion Ozu)
Kanon Ozu uses a pair of Smith and Wesson Model 629 revolvers as sidearms. For the purposes of this match, they will be .44 magnums with a 6-round cylinder.

Minebea PM9 (Guards, Armory)
A Japanese submachine gun based off the IMI Uzi, the PM9 fire 9mm ammuntion from a 25-round magazine with a rate of fire of 1100 rounds per minute at ranges of up to 100 meters.

Howa Type 89 (Guards, Armory)
The Howa Type 89 is a Japanese assault rifle designed in 1989 for the Japanese Self-Defense Force to replace the Howa Type 64. The weapon is based off the AR-18 assault rifle, which was produced in Japan for a time until laws prohibiting the export of military hardware from Japan were passed. As such, the Howa Type 89 has never been exported.

M4 Carbine (Guards, Armory)
The M4 Carbine is a series of firearms based upon the design of the M16 rifle. It was designed to be a light version of the M16A2 with selective fire options. Created in the United States, the M4 was in service since 1997. The weapon is gas-operated, cooled by air, and has a telescoping stock. The carbine was created, like most carbines, to function like a rifle but have a lighter weight and greater portability. The M4 is slightly less accurate and has less stopping power. The carbine will later shift into the standard firearm for the American armed forces. 35 nations have the M4 as part of their arsenal and is widely used by both their armies and special forces.

M79 Grenade Launcher (Armory, Kanon Ozu)
The M79, commonly known as the Thumper is a single-shot, break action grenade launcher first adopted in 1960. The launcher was designed to give infantry squads greater firepower, and was intended to fire a grenade further than it could be thrown by hand, with more accuracy than older rifle grenades. The weapon thus intended as a sort of middle-ground between a hand grenade and a mortar. The weapon served through the Vietnam War, until the M203 was placed into service in 1969 and the M79 was gradually replaced, though it is still in use for some purposes it it has a longer range than the M-203. The M79 was replaced with the M203 as the M203 was an underbarrel launcher, allowing the grenadier to carry a rifle as well as the launcher, whereas the M79 operator could only carry a pistol and a combat knife as secondary weapons.

Panzerfaust 3 (Armory)
The Panzerfaust 3 is a modern German-made rocket launcher that entered service with the Bundeswehr in 1992, not the be confused with the WWII-era Panzerfaust. The weapon has a range of 920 meters, at which point it will self destruct, though the effective range is typically much shorter. The Panzerfaust 3 can use a variety of warheads, including hollow charge, tandem charge, and anti-bunker warheads.

M67 Grenade (Armory)
The M67 fragmentation grenade is the current standard issue hand grenade for the United States and other military forces worldwide. The grenade was first issued in the 1970s, replacing the M26 and M61 grenades used during the Vietnam War. The grenade is activated by pulling the safety pin and then throwing the grenade. Pulling the pin releases the safety lever or "spoon", however, the spoon should be held in place by the users hand until the grenade is thrown, at which point the spoon releases, activating the fuse.

C-4 (Armory)
C-4 (or Composition C-4) is a plastic explosive. By itself, C-4 is harmless. You could shoot it, set it on fire, etc and it won't go off. But as blasting cap is placed on it, all the user needs to do is press a detonator and it goes off.

Hot Shower (Kanon)
Kanon is known in the anime to fear using her powers near water, as she thinks she might electrocute herself. 47 attempts to attack Kanon in the shower and allows her to see him. Kanon will attempt to use her powers on 47 and instead electrocute herself.

Munitions Mishap (Kanon)
Kanon will occasionally go to the heavy weapons range and practice with her favored weapon, an M79 Grenade Launcher. Before she does so, 47 will rig the 40mm grenade round to detonate in the barrel upon firing.

Kenjutsu Champion (Shion)
Steal one of Shion's katanas in the close combat area. She will fight 47 with the other. With her overwhelming advantage in strength, it may seem like an easy win for Shion... but it wouldn't be the first time 47 has beaten a stronger opponent.

Bullying Will Not Be Tolerated (Either)
Eliminate Kanon and/or Shion while they are bullying Aoi Fukusaku, one of their usual victims.

Close Your Eyes Forever (Either)
Female Coppelion do not have a uterus, as it was surgically removed as a donor organ. For the purposes of this mission, Kanon and Shion are scheduled to have this procedure done in a couple days. 47, disguised as the anesthesiologist, will give the target an overdose of anesthetic, poisoning them.

Malpractice (Either)
Similar to above, but 47 will be disguised as the surgeon and cut a major blood vessel, causing the target to bleed to death. Will arouse a LOT more suspicion than the anesthesiologist method- 47 may have to shoot his way out.

Things That Go Boom in the Night (Either)
47 will place remote explosives in the target's bed, and detonate when they enter.

Touku Madé (Either)
Steal a sniper rifle from the Armory, then infiltrate the skyscraper overlooking the JSDF facility and take out the target from there. Name of signature kill is a reference the ending song of Coppelion, the title meaning "far away".

=Kanon and Shion Ozu=

Kanon
Kanon Ozu is a Coppelion, as genetically engineered human immune to radiation, and a character in the anime and manga Coppelion. She was created in 2036, in a future Japan where Tokyo was abandoned because of nuclear accident that irradiated the entire city. Kanon and her sister Shion were both clones of actress Kuon Ozu, who was later discovered to be a serial killer. Both Kanon and Shion inherited their mother's violent, sadistic personality. After discovering the Coppelion were intentionally engineered to have a short lifespan, both Kanon and Shion made it their mission to take revenge against humanity. As of now, in the anime, they are currently aiding the 1st Division in their attempt to blow up the "sarcophagus" around the melted-down Odaiba Nuclear Reactor, sending radiation high into the atmosphere.

Powers
Kanon was spliced with the genes of an electric eel, giving herself the ability to create powerful electric discharges at will.

Riding Crop
Shion and Kanon Ozu have also sometimes carry a riding crop. It is implied that this is primarily used to beat up on their fellow students, rather than as a series weapon.

=Notes=
 * Conditions for victory:
 * Agent 47: 47 must eliminate Kanon and Shion Ozu, and escape the facility.
 * Ozu Sisters: 47 eliminated, At least one of the sisters must survive.
 * Draw: 47 and both targets killed, either in a mutually fatal encounter, or if 47 is killed by the JSDF guards while attempting to escape.
