User blog comment:Leolab/Nathan Hale (Resistance) v Lucas Kellan (Killzone: Shadow Fall)/@comment-4661256-20141118041242

El Alamein's Edges:

 Bullseye vs. Spoor:  The Bullseye has an insane rate of fire at 700 rds/min - I mean, that's gonna lay down a lot of suppressive fire and allow Hale's men to move from cover to cover. On top of that, with a larger magazine capacity (35 rounds vs. 24) and (in my opinion) a superior secondary operating system. Yes, while transforming your weapons system into a sniper rifle is certainly versatile, it seems rather redundant in my opinion. You already have a sniper rifle - you don't really need another. On top of that, the sniper rifle is dependent on the same (already smaller) magazine as the regular automatic railgun. That's going to eat up ammo like no tomorrow. Skilled users can make an effective habit out of tagging semi-concealed targets with the homing tag, allowing them to have greater control over the battle space. The Bullseye gets an edge for less ammo consumption and greater operational dominance.

Edge: Nathan Hale

 Auger vs. OWL:  I like the Auger because it allows the user to dominate the battle space (much like the Bullseye) thanks to its high penetration capabilities and its ability to reveal enemies trying to hide behind cover. Plus, it can create a nifty force field that will allow Hale's team to take cover even if they're totally out in the open. While the OWL is nice as an autonomous entity, it can easily be overwhelmed by concentrated fire - a feat that the Auger is evidently impervious to. Because of this, I give it my edge.

Edge: Nathan Hale

 HE .44 Magnum vs. LS-12:  Usually a revolver loses to a magazine fed semi-auto, and this is no exception. While the Magnum is nifty with its explosive rounds, that's still only 6 shots, a lot less than the 18 rounds of the LS-12. The burst mode offers the LS-12 greater operational ease of use in a close-quarters battle while still giving it the same effective magazine size as the Magnum. And I bet it's a lot easier reloading the LS-12 than the Magnum. Overall, I give my edge to the LS-12.

Edge: Lucas Kellan

 Fareye vs. Spoor (again... I guess):  The Spoor apparently uses 12 ammo per shot... which means it can only fire twice with a 24-round magazine. On top of that, it's probably less effective as a long-distance weapon thanks to its multipurpose use that makes it all right as either an assault rifle/SMG or as a sniper, but not exceptional as either. The Fareye will have a better, more focused sniper behind the weapon thanks to Neural Perception, and with such high-caliber rounds and a variable zoom scope, there's no range or cover anyone can use to try to avoid a deadeye with the Fareye.

Edge: Nathan Hale

 Rossmore vs. Sickle:  Both weapons perform relatively similarly as pump-action shotguns with 8-round internal magazines, but I find that the ability to light people on fire is more damaging to both morale, and well... the body, than is the ability to blast both barrels and then wait around for a recovery.

Edge: Lucas Kellan

 M5A2 vs. M55:  Both have underbarrel grenade launchers, and both have 30-round magazines. Umm... so, even I guess?

Edge: Even

WINNER: NATHAN HALE

DISCLAIMER: If anything I say is inaccurate or incorrect here, please correct me, and please forgive me. I am familiar with neither warrior or their weapons and am simply going off the information provided in the blog.

That being said, through what I can gather based on the battle, Nathan Hale has a huge advantage with his weaponry. They simply hit much harder and offer better protection against whatever returning fire Kellan can dish back. The Spoor is a nifty tool, but can compete with neither the Bullseye nor the Fareye at their respective ranges, while the Auger deals out massively raw firepower and protects better than the OWL could ever hope to do. It just boils down to the fact than Nathan Hale has the better weaponry - so it makes sense that he should win.
