Close Range- I have to give this to the jackals as it is more a game of use between these two weapons. While the pike can stun the Jackal, a shield provides more options against other weapons that the Geonsians possess. Edge-Jackals

Mid Range-The needler is probably my favourite fictional weapon ever. It seeks out the enemy, stabs them and then explodes, shattering internal organs and arteries. The carbine probably has more stopping power but the needler is just so effective with a rapid rate of fire. Edge-Jackals.

Long Range-Both guns are very powerful and essentially fill an identical role with similar effects. Though I feel that the Jackal has the edge here with the shield, weapon for weapon they are pretty much equal. Edge-Even

Special- Although the beam is capable of taking down shields, its effects on the warrior itself is just too big a sacrifice. It would not have the energy afterwards to take down the Jackal and would be very vulnerable to attack. The needler as mentioned before has always been a very effective weapon so it gets my edge. Edge-Jackals.

Its pretty obvious from above that the Jackals have the superior weapons. The needler will tear the other enemies to bits while the shield will give them moveable protection against most shots. The edges show that they are fast, ruthless and well trained. It will be a walk over for them.

Winners-Jackals.
