“ | The Strogg: soulless fusions of decaying flesh, bones and metal, twisted and ruined by centuries of war. They search the galaxy for the sole item their existence requires, harvesting, consuming and destroying everything in their path. And now, they have arrived… here

The Strogg are a hostile cybernetic alien race featured as the main antagonists in the Quake 2 and Quake 4 video games, and recently in Enemy Territory: Quake Wars. The Strogg are cybernetic constructs of unclear origins that reproduce by taking biological components and fusing them with advanced technology in the brutal surgical process of stroggification that enslaves their minds and enhances their bodies for war.
The Strogg's need to harvest biological components for their own augmentation, and the flesh of slain enemies for the creation of stroyent, is their primary motivation, since it is necessary for their survival. This motivation led the Strogg to Earth, which they promptly invaded, slaughtering millions of humans just to harvest their corpses. This Strogg aggression led to humanity's long war with them that has continued unabated ever since.
Battle vs. Mobile Infantry (Starship Troopers) (by BattleGames1)[]
TBA
Winner: Strogg
Expert's Opinion[]
The experts agreed that while the MI were more intelligent and strategic than the Strogg, it is their inferior weaponry, heavy armour and lack of resolve that got them killed in the end. The MI were able to valiantly complete the objectives until the destruction of the Black Hole Generator when there were only a handful left to storm the palace - a goal that was rendered unachievable by the devastating weaponry and high durability of the stronger Strogg troops. If you think this battle was unfair in any way, shape or form, you can go ahead and do a rematch.

Battle vs. Covenant Military (by BattleGames1)[]
No battle will be written
Winner: Covenant Empire
Expert's Opinion[]
The experts have noted that while the Strogg were tough, more varied and had access to powerful weaponry (the Dark Matter Gun), the Covenant Empire in the end had superior and balanced weaponry plus expertly trained units of their own. When it came down to Makron vs Prophet of Regret, it was noted that while Makron was more intimidating with the claws and dark matter gun, the Prophet had a lot more mobility and can access a powerful weapon from the ship that would easily decimate the Strogg boss. If you find this battle to be unfair in any way, shape or form, you can go ahead and do a rematch.

Battle vs. Separatist Droid Army (Legends) (written by BattleGames1)[]
No battle will be written
Winner: Separatist Droid Army/CIS
Expert's Opinion[]
Most of the experts have noted that while the Strogg pack a wider variety of devastating weapons, those simply cannot cancel out the massive edge the Droids bring in with their enhanced durability and army-like capabilities. Leader-wise, Voss and Makron are not able to counter the incredible degree of skill Grievous and Dooku had in their lightsaber combat, Dooku's force powers and Grievous's superhuman abilities. If you think this battle is unfair in any way, shape or form, go right ahead and do a rematch.
