User blog comment:WraithOfWaffle/Season One: Battle Two: Pegorino Family (Grand Theft Auto IV) vs. Punchinello Family (Max Payne)/@comment-5795750-20130929230418

BG1's "Lucky There's a Family Guy" Edges

Melee: The KA-BAR knife is a weapon designed for combat and stealthy attacks whereas the Baseball Bat is an improvised weapon; both weapons are guaranteed to get you a kill but the knife requires precision slashing or stabbing while the bat requires multiple beatings

EDGE: Even

Short: I say the Glock gets this for packing the bigger round, a higher muzzle velocity and two extra bullets that could make the difference

EDGE: Pegorinos

Medium: Since you are using the .45 ACP bullet for the MAC-10, that means it has a reduced muzzle velocity compared to the Micro Uzi which also doesn't compensate against the high RoF and slightly bigger magazine size of the Uzi (methinks)

EDGE: Pegorinos

Long: While the AK-47 is more reliable than the Colt Commando, this is offset by the Commando's compactness, higher muzzle velocity (got the range of the Commando wrong by the way) and higher RoF

EDGE: Even (leaning towards Punchinellos)

Explosives: I gotta give this to the M26 grenade since it packs a bigger amount of explosive material, has a shorter fuse time than the Mk 2 and it is more portable than the Mk 2 (also, the M26 can be considered an improvement/replacement grenade of the Mk 2)

EDGE: Pegorinos

X-Factors: Average of 83 for Pegorinos, Average of 85 for Punchinellos

EDGE: Punchinellos

Overall Winner: So essentially we have a GTA gang going up against a Max Payne crime familiy with connections to the Mafia (and the Russian Mob) and to me, given the scenario, I can definitely see the Punchinello Crime Family. Sure the Pegorinos take up most of the weapons edges but the Punchinellos take out most of the X-Factors and important ones at that - they are more organized and experienced in armed combat, plus their leader is more sane and mobile which allows him to gain the upper hand against the old fogey of the Pegorino gang
