THE DOCTOR'S DIAGNOSIS OF DEATH AND CARNAAAAAAAAAAAAGE!


 * Close-Triads. The Kunckle Duster will be nifty but in close range against Butterfly Swords which are much more deadly, with more length, in trained hands, yeah, no contest for the superior swords here.


 * Mid-Mafia. The Thompson is firing a larger round, the .45 ACP compared to the 7.62x25mm you get with the Type 64, both are good sized rounds, but the Tommy Gun is firing a better one. Not to mention the 50 to 100 round Drum Magazine compared to he Type 64's 30 round box magazine, either way the Tommy gets the edge. As for Rate of Fire goes, I want to say these are even, and like EA said, they can go up to and beyond 1,000 rounds per minute. But we have another big factor to consider, which is Range. The Type 64 has a superior range of 150 to 200 meter compared to the tiny 50 meters range you'll get with the Thompson. Then we have weight, and the Type 64 weighs a lot less, 3.4kg compared to the 4.9kg (both guns empty) with the Tommy. Then we have overall Length, with the stock open the score is close, 843mm with the T64 and 850 with the Tommy, but with the stock closed, it's gonna be 635mm to 850mm, a big difference. Barrel Length is also shorter, with 244mm with the T64 compared to the 270mm with the Thompson. So with all these factors put together, and some close calls and edges, I do give it to the Mafia, but only slightly like EA. The factors the T64 takes, not to mention the internal suppressor, could make a difference in the end fight.


 *  Long-Triads. Let's get to it, the AR-15 has a superior Rate of Fire, 800 rds.min compared to 600 rds/min with the 56. Both fire slightly the same rounds, 5.56x45mm to 7.62x39mm. Then range, which the T56 takes. 800m with the 56 against the maximum 600 you'll get with the AR-15. I'm feeling lazy so I'll give it to the Triads for the same reasons as EA.


 * Explosives-Mafia. The Grenade(s) is(are) more portable, can be thrown easier, and it doesn't take time to arm.

'''WINNER-MAFIA. '''Very, very, VERY close call here but in the end I give it to the Mafia. The Triads and Mafia both take very close edges but just barely. The AR-15 could've beaten the Type 56, and the T64 could beat the Thompson. The Superior Mid Range weapon, and a solid good Long ranged weapon along with an explosive edge will barely get the Mafia the win.
