User blog comment:Deathblade 100/Death from a far: BX Commandos (Star Wars) vs Kig-Yar (Halo)/@comment-25253035-20191217132253

Sniper: Its difficult to decide which of the two between the Type 51 and CIS Sniper Rifle is better. On one hand, the Type 51 definately takes the edge in being lighter, more mobile and having a faster rate of fire. But the CIS is probably has a longer recoil and packs the more powerful punch (the caseless radioactive bullet is cool and all, but the ionised plasma is more lethal). Really, I cannot decie which is better.

Edge: Both

Mid Range: Lol Needler easy. That thing can penetrate Spartan armor and can hone into its target. The E-5 Blaster rifle is cool and all since it also fire ionised plasma, but it is very innacurate, tends to overheat, and the fact that its cheap meant that it probably prone to breaking in battle.

Edge: Kig Yar

Melee: The vibrosword is a nasty weapon that can penetrate armor. Even so, the energy cutlass is made up of pure energy so it can damage the vibrosword with every strike without having to worry about being damaged itself during melee. It can also self-destruct.

Edge: Kig Yar

Shield: Seriously, the point defense gauntlet looks inferior to me. Not only can it be penetrated easy by plasma weapons which the droids have, but it will also shut down with continuous fire or if it runs out of battery. The BX shield can be penertated too but it doesn't run out like the gauntlet, and can even defect blaster and lightsaber strikes.

Edge: BX Commando

X-Factor and Verdict: Although the Kig Yar uses the better weapons, in the end I think the BX Commando's durability, design and shield will be too much for them. The Kig Yar are nimble fighters and while they make great skirmishers they aren't as tough in a prolonged firefight. Their bird-like bone structure makes them even more fragile compared to the super strong metallic built of the BX. The latter is not only more durable, but they have the better stamina and stronger physicalty. When the fight overwhelms them the Kig Yar tends to run away, but the droids feel no emotions and won't retreat till they win or are destroyed. Just think about it, a single Spartan can wreck havoc on a whole platoon of Kig Yar, while the BX Commandos themselves are more than a match for the Clones.

Winner: BX Commandos
