The Gentleman Spy & The Fiendish Knight

Weapon & Equipment: Okay, so Galahad is definitely bringing a more offense based type of combat with his lethal Bond-esque gadgetry and a pistol that doubles as a single blast shotgun. Off the bat I can say the lighter hand grenade and the Oxford knife are the least useful weapons in his inventory. No spy with common sense would use a hand grenade against a well trained individual unless it was absolutely, life or death, nessecary for the fate of the world gamble. It would be complete overkill and most likely hinder the mission,plus itll be hard to explain the paperwork to the bossman. The knife would be too tedious and time consuming to be put to actual use in combat, especially if your opponent is completely armored up from head to toe. It will have to be a stroke of luck if Galad could at least get one lucky nick before gettting a face full of a TKO Bat Punch.

I digress.

At least Galahad has a pretty damn good advantage against the Batman with his Umbrella. When it comes to first chance encounter the person who moves faster than his opponent will have a major advantage in time when it comes to planning for a prolong combat, but this can be reversed when properly equipped for that type of situation. For example, say Batman throws his shurikens as a way of damaging and distracting his foes before laying on a final blow. Now if he used that type of plan against Galahad as a first move Galahad, now equipped with his umbrella, will instinctivly pull up his umbrella to deflect the attack. This will leave Batman wide open for Galahad to shoot a puck and knock him out in the first two moves.

What if Batman dodges the puck and quickly counters by pulling out his Paste Gun or EMP Gun and damages the umbrella. This is where the pistol kicks in. Galahad can pull it out and layout some shots before realizing the suit is bulletproof....to normal rounds. Enter the secret shotgun cartridge. A single surprise blast can easily blast a chunk of that armor and wound( or kill) the Dark Knight.

Last but not least, the dart watch. Easy sleight of hand KO weapon if his opponent has him on the ground.

Batman's chache is more balanced, yet unorthodox at the same time. The most important aspect that is essential in the way Batman fights is the use of theatrics. The one thing Batman always does when he is combat against his foes is instill fear into their mind. He stays in the shadows. His voice is not of a billionaire playboy, but a growling beast stalking the streets. He is not in one place, but everywhere. He comes down in a suit of armor that transforms him into the Devil himself. Everything he does is to distract, disillusion, and frighten his opponent and break them mentally, while breaking their bones physically. TBF.
