*Close Range: The M6 and M7 beat the Snub for superior stopping power (M6) and rate of fire (M7). The M90 beats the Gnasher for its faster firing pump action. Edge: Freelancer
 * Melee weapons: The Chainsaw Bayonet needs fuel, and being a chainsaw, could potentially rebound, injuring the user. Edge: Freelancer
 * Mid Range: The BR has superior stopping power to the Lancer, while the the MA5 scores about even. Edge: Freelancer.
 * Long Range: The SRS-99 sniper rifle has a four-round magazine and a semi-automatic action firing a powerful 14.5mm round. This gives it the advantage over the single-shot Longshot. Edge: Freelancer
 * Exposives: The Ballistically fired explosives of the Brute Shot and the M41 rocket launcher have a longer range and faster prep time than the bolo grenade, with its long spin up time. The M41 also causes more damage on impact, and its double barrel allows it to fire two shots simultaneously. Edge: Freelancer.
 * Support Weapons: The Mother of Invention takes this for its greater versatility: The Hammer of Dawn has only one weapon, the beam, while UNSC frigates such as the Mother of Invention carry a variety of weapons, including Magnetic Accellerator Cannons and various types of missiles, giving it the ability to choose the right munition for any target. Edge: Freelancer
 * Armor and X-Factors: With their superior armor, shielding, training, experience, and physicallity, as well as their genetic augmentations, the Freelancers take this easily.
 * Overall Winner: Freelancers
