 * Melee: While most would go with the chainsaw bayonet, a chainsaw is a poor weapon, because it requires a power source (fuel, battery etc) and may rebound, injuring or killing the user. On the other hand, the chainsaw has a longer reach. I give this a narrow Even


 * Pistols: The M6C fires a more powerful .50 caliber round, and has a scope. Edge UNSC's MGC.
 * ARs: Both are fully automatic weapons with a high rate of fire, Even
 * Sniper Rifles: The SRS-99 has a more powerful 14.5mm anti-materiel discarding sabot round, capable of taking down a fully shielded Elite or Brute in one shot. Not to mention, has four rounds to the Longshot's one. Edge: UNSC
 * Shotguns: The M90 is a pump-action shotgun, meaning it can be cycled faster than the Gnasher's lever action. Not to mention, it fires a larger eight-gauge shell as opposed to the Gnasher's 12 gauge.
 * Grenades: The M9 HEDP grenade can be thrown accurately without the lengthy spin-up time of the Bolo Grenade. Quite frankly, the Bolo Grenade is not a very sensible design in my opinion. Edge UNSC
 * Heavy Artillery: While the Hammer of Dawn is an effective precision strike weapon, it is most effective against infantry, while the MAC can, even on low-power "bombardment mode" devastate vehicles and buildings. Not to mention the MAC is not not effected by atmospheric conditions, being a solid slug, and is launched from a spacecraft, which could potentially shoot down the sattellite mounted Hammer. Edge: UNSC
 * Ground Vehicle: The Humvee-like Packhorse covers the head of the crew (except the gunner), while the Warthog is an open-topped vehicle that leaves the crew exposed to enemy fire. Edge: COG
 * Aircraft: The Falcon has more guns (at least judging from the picture), and is a tilt rotor, meaning it can likely travel faster than the Corva. Edge UNSC
 * Soldiers: The SPARTANs are elite, genetically augmented super soldiers, armed with the best weapons and armor the UNSC has, including energy shields. The UNSC takes this easily.
 * Experience: The UNSC takes this, the Covenant and Flood are far more dangerous enemies than the Locust or Lambent.
 * Overall: The UNSC takes this match for their superior weapons technology and SPARTAN super soldiers.
