Well since this is unpopular ill be ending the battle with my vote.

Sith-venator Wavingstrider's Edges!


 * For Long Range it's a single shot bolt action sniper rifle vs a semi-automatic plasma weapon that has a range of 1,500 meters. EDGE: Brutes


 * For Mid Range the Hammerburst II is a very good gun with probably a good sized round but it has a smaller magazine than the Needle Rifle, not to mention that only 3 hits from a needle rifle to an unshielded opponent causes an explosion, note the Locust are unshielded unlike the Brutes. EDGE: Brutes


 * For Close Range The Gorgon Pistol is much more accuate and has the larger magazine compared to the Spiker. Though the Mauler lacks range and slip size compared to the Gnasher it is smaller, lighter weight, semi-automatic, and the Brutes are able to dual wield them with ease making them particularly lethal. So Gorgon Pistol beats Spiker but Mauler beats Gnasher. EDGE: Tie


 * For Melee the Gravity Hammer can do so much more damage than the Cleaver. Besides the fact that the gravity hammer can create vortexes a blunt weapon beats a slashing weapon. EDGE: Brutes


 * For Explosive this is like RPG-7 vs Milkor MGL, what do you value more, the boom or how many grenades you can fire quickly? I personally like having a magazine of grenades on the battlefield rather than having to reload each time. EDGE: Brutes

OVERALL WINNER: Jiralhanae-This is a case of superior weapons, armor, and plain just being bigger than your opponent. Though the Locust are tough they aren't equipped with energy shields like the Brutes, plus their strip armor does almost nothing. 3,000-2,000

FInal tally comes down to 2 and a half to 2, poll currently reads 5-4 in favor of Brutes. Thank you for those who voted.
