THE DEADLIEST WARRIOR'S DEADLIEST EDGES:

Arquebus vs. Flintlock Musket: The Arquebus is a piece of crap. It's horribly inaccurate and probably won't get past the Musketeer's armor. While the Musket may not pierce the Conquistador's armor either, it's more accurate (face shots, etc.) and it has a nasty bayonet.

EDGE: FRENCH MUSKETEER

Lance vs. Wheellock Pistol: You don't compare a gun, even if it jams *occasionally* to a non-gunpowder/black powder weapon. Lances are great, but they are meant to be used on horseback and the Pistol has a longer range.

EDGE: FRENCH MUSKETEER

Sword vs. Rapier/Main Gauche: Well, firstly, thanks for clarifying what kind of sword it is. ;) It's called a saber. The Musketeers are good sword-fighters but the Conquistadors butcher in swordplay. Plus, the saber can break the Rapier, it's much more solid.

EDGE: SPANISH CONQUISTADOR

Crossbow vs. Grenade: The Crossbow won't breach Mr. Frenchy's armor and the Grenade renders Mr. Spanishy's armor useless. Regardless of having the slight chance of collateral damage and friendly fire, the Grenade is much more modern and much more deadly.

EDGE: FRENCH MUSKETEER

Overall Winner: French Musketeer. First, they have 3... how many? 3 gunpowder-based weapons (and they're all deadly) to the Musketeer's 1 and very crappy gunpowder-based weapon. It's not a fair fight. The Musketeers, simply put, are much, much more modern. While I'd love to see the Conquistadors win, I have to see reason and it just won't happen. Good win Musketeers, but it's only through technology and not skill that you win.
