May the Bugler sound the charge, m***********!!!!!

Short: Tie. Sorry, as much as I like the bowie knife, the saber is longer, and you can keep a man with a knife at bay. However, the knife does offer more speed in attacking, plus in a pinch you can throw it... no guarrantee on accuracy, but you can still throw it.

Short: Iron Brigade. Yeah! Colt Army for the Win! But seriously, the Colt Army may be the heavier and clunkier gun, but it is the revolver that won the war. It packs good stopping power, and it isn't too shabby accuracy wise either. The Perrin lacks both range and firepower compared to it.

Long: Iron Brigade. The Springfield get's this in my opinion for several reasons. It firest he smaller bullet, but it is shorter, which means faster reload, and it also carries the longer range. The Bayonet however, is what wins this for me. There is a reason that triangular bayonets are now illegal....

Special: Iron Brigade. Same range, same (almost) weight... I give this to the Sharpes. It has the same range as the tabatier, but it is waaaay shorter, which means it will be more maneaverable in a fight, and the shorter barrel will have other advantages too.

X-Factors: Iron Brigade. They gain three out of the four edges, and the FFL get's none of them... do I really need to say much more here?

Deadliest Warrior: The Iron Brigade!!!! Big surprise to me, really. I went in here expecting myself to side with the French Foreign Legion, but I suprise myself by siding with the Iron Brigade. They have the superior weapons and the X-Factors to win this fight. I'm also looking forward to the 80 on 80 idea. I'll keep an eye out for this when it's finished.
