BG1's 'Battlefield: Earth' Edges:

Short Range: While you say that both guns fire the same rounds and the same amount of them, I looked up the muzzle velocity for each gun and the Beretta happens to be more powerful

EDGE: Nantz

Long Range: Well both are using the same gun so...

EDGE: Even

Special: A sniper rifle vs a machine gun... well I guess that the sniper is good enough for long range combat but that requires precision/accuracy; the M249 SAW is one of those 'spray and pray' weapons and it might guarantee a kill but it might not be so good if the target is 1.8km away from you (read that the effective range of it is about 800m)

EDGE: Hopper

Overall Winner: This is going to cut close but I'll have to say that Nantz takes this one by a close shave. He has a lot of combat experience and is a good squadron leader; the thing that makes me say this may be close is that Nantz may not have faced off against a naval force and besides, Hopper has the tactics advantage which means that Nantz might not be prepared for all the sneaky tricks Hopper may pull
