User blog comment:Deathblade 100/Death from a far: BX Commandos (Star Wars) vs Kig-Yar (Halo)/@comment-27043000-20191213002248

Pygmy Hippo's "360 Noscope" Edges

Sniper:The Type-51 Carbine has more information on it but the CIS Sniper Rifle is likely far deadlier with more modifications including a better scope and bipod for better accuracy. The Carbine arguably doesn't even have superior magazine capacity as most blasters like the Rifle have far more ammo than Covenant weapons. Edge:BX-Series

Mid-Range:The E-5 Blaster Rifle has far more rounds and should have deadlier and faster projectiles than the Type-33 Guided Munitions Launcher which has more accuracy and shouldn't overheat as quickly. The Rifle might not have the flashiness of the Launcer's needle explosion but it's more practical and can kill with only one shot. Edge:BX-Series

Melee:The Energy Cutlass is longer, likely lighter, and can be used as an explosive while the Vibrosword might have more killing power. I still prefer the versatility of the Cutlass with reach and shrapnel potential over the slightly sharper Vibrosword. Edge:Kig-Yar

Shield:The BX Shields appear to be larger and far more durable as it can take blaster fire while the Point-Defense Gauntlet can't handle plasma weapons. Add in that the Shields can be phased through to fire while you have to aim around the Gauntlet and this is an easy edge. Edge:BX-Series

X-Factors:The Kig-Yar take Experience and tie in Lethality while the BX-Series takes Tactics. While the Kig-Yar are far more experienced, their tactics aren't really going to help them in this battle as their weapons can't kill the BX-Series effectively and their armor won't hold, also it's unlikely they've ever fought anything like their opponents. Edge:BX-Series

Final Verdict:The BX-Series are clearly poised for victory against the Kig-Yar thanks to their far superior ranged weapons and shields along with better tactics to catch them off-guard. The only advantages the Kig-Yar have is in melee which is the least effective weaponry in this fight and experience which I've already talked about. The BX-Series could possibly wipe out their foes through ranged and stealth attacks alone while using their shields to protect them.

Winner:BX-Series
