User blog comment:Deathblade 100/Urban Jungle Warlords: Iraqi Republican Guard vs Viet Cong/@comment-4698460-20160206024815

For the Soldier who enjoys hiding in the Shadows, and then suddenly jumps out to lead a parade!

Long Range: Even. Same range? Okay. Same Bullet? Okay. RPD with the slightly faster fire rate and more bullets? Great. RPD with the long-ass reloading time, while the guy with the RPK has fired more than 100 bullets in your direction while your still reloading your first clip? Sure thing. Yeah, with the way I see things here, I don't have a clear winner in mind....

Short Range: Viet Cong. I have to agree with EA here, more than 50 meters for most SMGs is.. um... hard to achieve. With that out of the way, we have what: The Skorpion with the faster rate of fire, and the MAT-49 with the better bullet and the better magazine capacity. Dingading ding, we have a winner! The MAT wins with the better bullet and magazine capacity, as the Skorpion will shoot up it's tiny magazine to quickly.

Short Range: Republican Guard. The Browning Hi-Power continues to be one of my favorite historical weapons. It packs more bullets than the Tokarev, and on personal opinion, I'd reather take the 9mm over the 7.62 Tokarev.

Special: Republican Guard. I agree with most people on here. The Punji sticks are an immobile trap that someone has to literally blunder into for it to be effective.. unless the VC pick it up and start trying to stab someone to death with it. Meanwhile, a knife is a knife... and hey, look! It can turn your rifle into a sharp pointy stick (if they had rifles)! So... no rifles... so.. a really tiny, sharp pointy stick!

Explosive: Even. I'm not going with anyone here. The RGD-5 is a semi-decent grenade (from what I've heard, I've never really bothered with grenades unless their WWII or American, so I may be wrong) that has superior charge amount... but that's it. The F1 is heavy, and a smaller charge, but at least I can see the fragments on it, and of course you then toss the mine in... and you have something that my tiny, plebeian mind cannot choose between.

X-Factors: Even. Again, my tiny, American mind can't choose a winner in this edge. You have the IRG, who have the better logistics and training, and the Viet Cong who have are way better a psych warefare. I'm not going to attempt to decipher Experience due to the 1 point difference and EA's infinite wisdom in his comment about this.

Deadliest Warrior: Iraqi Republican Guard. In one corner, guys who like to hide in bushes, in the other, guys who enjoy being fancy and going on parade. Both have the capability to kick your ass, but are more known for getting their asses kicked. In the end, I go with the Iraqi Republican Guard because of they secure more edges than the VC. Sure, it's only two, but the VC only get one, and everywhere else is a tie. As General William Westmoreland said, the US probably could of won in Vietnam if they actually pushed for it instead of protesting against it. Though, I guess I should be happy, if they had pushed for it, my Grandfather might of actually been in Vietnam instead of standing guard on missiles based in Italy. Anyway, the IRG get this battle because of more edges (that aren't tied).
