Elgb’s “Americana vs Africana” EDGES!!!

Melee: Dude this is a tough one. The bowie knife is an excellent melee and throwable weapon, but the lasso is nothing more than just an equipment (though you can use it to strangle and hogtie foes). Still the metal claws seem to have more advantage up close. Seeing the picture, the leopard society had two metal tipped gloves in each hand, which basically meant they have two weapons in their disposal. They can use one hand to grapple the cowboy’s knife hand, before using his free hand to slice and rip for a messy kill. EDGE: Leopard Society

Pistol: I never really liked the colt peacemaker, and I don’t really care if the cowboys carried multiple peacemakers with them. Though the peacemaker has the longer range, bigger calibre/damage and accuracy, still what pisses me off is that it’s a fixed cylinder revolver. Which basically means that you have to constantly empty each hole one by one and reload each hole one by one (unless off course you swap cylinders every reloading). With this you can only fire 6 shots from a peacemaker in every minute. The webley may not have the range and power, but it’s more advanced top-break mechanism allows it to eject spent casings and reload the cylinder faster. Way faster than the piece of shit peacemaker. EDGE: Leopard Society

Rifle: Spencer rifle is an obsolete lever action rifle. You have to constantly cock the hammer after every chambering of the lever. Not only that, but you reload that thing by inserting the bullets in the butt of its stock. The Winchester is the best lever action rifle out there and the sheer rate of fire of that thing would decimate the leopard society from afar. EDGE: Cowboys

Special: The howdah pistol, for me, is an experimental weapon. Y'all know that it’s a sawn-off .50 cal elephant gun/rifle. It surely has more power and range than a measly shotgun. But again due to it being a sawn-off rifle, it makes it very inaccurate. The sawn-off barrel contains no front sight, so you can’t use it to kill someone from afar nor even from mid range. You really have to fire it point blank to get a sure hit. The shotgun on the other hand, is very accurate, and will not be a hassle in aiming than the howdah pistol. EDGE: Cowboys

Deadliest Warrior: Cowboys

It’s no suprise that the American cowboy would win but only slightly. The cowboys had more devastating weapons from both short and long range. Not only that, but the sheer intensity of their occupation makes them physically strong. Those guys had to constantly fight off Indians and rustlers in an unregulated frontier, then there’s also the searing heat, icy snow, dangerous environment, and dead cold night that these guys had to endure daily just for a salary same as a Taco Bell cashier. Though I do respect the tactics, savagery and brutality that the leopard men do to travellers and villagers, still the cowboys (such as J.W. Hardin and Oliver Loving) are well experienced and trained in fighting off Indians and bandits from time-to-time and a cult is no exception. Another thing that gives the cowboys the win is their abilities in quickdraw, marksmanship and equestrianism. Seeing you’ve already written battle output, the cowboys looked like they’ll be on horses. And a cowboy on horse is a very dangerous warrior in those days because as we all know, cowboys pretty much invented modern day horseback riding and rodeo tricks. Their quickness with their guns would turn a leopard society ambush into a frenzy bad idea.
