User blog comment:Tesla Man/SNLF vs Waffen SS/@comment-4661256-20111218213447

First, I'll compare the weapons, then analyze the warriors.

For pistols, the Luger is a famous weapon. And it's famous for a reason. The simple 8-round magazine with its reliable design made it iconic. The Nambu, in fact, is a Japanese rip-off of the Luger, with similar appearance but a much crappier design. The Nambu cannot stack up to the power of the Luger. Advantage, Waffen SS

For explosives, I would easily give the Edge to the Grenade. The Bouncing Betty, while a death trap if you step on it, requires itself to be activated. The Grenade is portable and has a much higher efficiency in combat, being able to be directed where the Japanese want it to be directed. Advantage, SNLF

For SMG's, the MP28 does have that superior German engineering behind it, and the Type 100 was the offspring of the weak Japanese firearm manufacturing during WWII. The MP28 is a lot more reliable, with sights that are a lot more accurate. The Type 100 will share the same fate as the Nambu when compared against German counterparts. Advantage, Waffen SS.

About the warriors: Firstly, the Waffen SS have an intense superiority complex. They're like the executioners of Nazi Germany. They did see combat, but Deadliest Warrior really misrepresented them. Most of the time they hunted down poorly armed, or even unarmed opponents that were mainly Nazi defectors/spies or Nazi undesirables like Jews, Gypsies, etc. The Waffen SS are extremely de-sensitized to the horrors of war, but in combat they might not be able to cope. Still German engineering and training give them a minor edge in weaponry.

Now you take the SNLF, which was like the Navy SEALs of Imperial Japan. Their only shortcoming was the poor weaponry they were supplied with, but these little men were determined. Fanatical to an extreme. They would not stop for fear of anything and even the most grevious of wounds would not stop their push forward. At battles like Iwo Jima and Okinawa the entire Japanese garrison minus maybe 20 men had to be killed since they wouldn't surrender. Add this to the fact that the Japanese are fighting on their home turf, where they're used to fighting, and they're unstoppable.

The Nazis will be fighting in an alien ground where at the same time the SNLF thrive. No contest. Weapon-for-weapon the Nazis win, but they don't have enough combat experience and the SNLF have the warrior heart that will have them win, or die trying.

MY VOTE: SNLF
