Melee: In bladed weaponry, size ounts more. Kukri is bigger, faster, and deals more damage.

Edge: Gurkha

Close Range: In handgus, number of rounds count. Although the Webley, being .455, deals better damage. Walther carries 2 rounds more. Most of all, its faster to reload and lighter to carry. Being magazine fed lets you carry more rounds.

Edge: SS

Mid Range: Bolt-action rifles tend to be slow. Although Kar can deal more damage, Enfield rifle carries more rounds, and its design makes cock the bolt faster.

Edge:Gurkha

Long Range: I've seen people in the comments section put both the Bren and FG to a tie. One thing people should known is that FG is lighter to carry, and can be fired from the shoulder. Although it carries 10 rounds shorter, it can be fired from the shoulder unlike hip firing from the bren. Another advatage is that the mag isn't on the top like the bren Putting the mag on the top lets you carry more rounds, but it also lessen your field of view. The Fg ca also be installed with a scope, so if long-range battle is the name of the game, then a scoped gun is better that a non-scoped gun.

Edge: SS

X-Fators:

Better training: Gurkhas win this

Resouce: Gurkhas were only a "light" infantry, SS were elites armed with more weapons, and if vehicles are concerned SS has the flak trak and Panzers. So SS wins this round.

As for my opinion, I'm giving the edge to the Gurkhas. SS were elits, but they were trained only to harass and expand. Gurkhas had strategies to counter this things. There's some count that Gurkhas managed to free some pacific territory way before MacArthur came knicking

DEADLIEST WARRIOR: Gurkhas
