Battle For Arkham City

Battle For Arkham City

There's four seperate teams, all looking to accomplish the same goal, which is to take over Arkham City. Each team has been placed in seperate locations, two days prep for all parties involved.

Eliminating the others teams is only half of the task, can they withstand the added elements to bring order to what they see fit?

The elements,

Also inhabiting Arkham City are six elite Predators (Standard gear), traveling in two groups of three. There task, to eliminate anyone they see as a challenge. There are also seven warrior Aliens traveling throughout, who are all spread throughout.

The Predators and Aliens also recieve two days prep.

Locked down to the lower ends of the city rests Ra's Al Ghul and his army of ninjas with a newly formed partnership with Red Skull. They too recieve two days worth of prep, with fifty assassins at their disposal. They too seek to control the city.

Last but not least the many inmates who fill the streets, who of courese are all out for blood. Some are armed with rifles as expected.

The Teams,

1. Batman, Solid Snake, Elektra, and David Cain

2. Red Robin, Black Panther, Green Arrow, and Captain America

3. Nightwing, Black Widow, Bane (On venom), and Snake Eyes

4. Red Hood, Bronze Tiger, Vamp, and Daredevil

Locations,

The numbers listed on the map 1-4 is the positions of each team in their presented order.

Details,

All members can communicate through codec

Two days prep

Standarad gear

Morals on

Can any of the four teams prevail in defeating all others while taking over the city through methodical planning? Or will the Predators or Red Skull and company have the final say?

I'm going to go with team Nightwing as having the best chance, but overall i think the Predators take control.

Another good thread that will die due to lack of replies :/

@PunkMastaFlex That's why we just keep bumping it!

Team 3 mainly cos I reckon snake eyes could take 3 predators

Excellent thread. Extremely hard to make a decision here but I'd have to take a gander at choosing team 2. Both Red Robin and Black Panther are excellent with prep and having Cap, who is an superb tactician and team leader can decidedly bring them victory.

Good to see every team has at least one vote.

I'll take team 1, Batman will put them in a good situation as far as preparation, and Solid Snake will bring plenty of weapons to the table.

Team 1 or team 2.

Predator/Alien team face hug everyone and win.

Agreed

Team number 2 is looking pretty incredible not only for their strong team leader Cap., but they also have the best and most tactical position on the map in my opinion. They could hold their location very easily and Cap being such a good tactician they could devise some good plans on taking down other teams locations. All in all I guess I'm going with team two but this one was a tough decision to make. Good thread!!

@kamakazi152:

Good point, position could be a deciding factor.

Predators win this due the fact they have more experience and expertise in hunting and guerilla warfare since a Elite Predator would have centuries of experience under it's belt, this environment suits their style of combat because it allows them to use their natural abilities to traverse areas where the teams would have a hard time reaching and travel to different locations in much less time since Predators have superior speed. This means that this will give the Predators ample time to set traps and coordinate strategies, and with 2 days of prep the Predators would be able to identify the weak links in each team and take them out as they see fit, and also to gives them time to familiarize themselves with Arkham City. The most probable strategy the Predators will try to use is to lure the weaker teams in confined areas where they can easily be ambushed and killed by Xenomorphs Warriors who are extremely strong, fast, and durable and to be honest the Predators would be formidable enough in pairs to give any of this teams a decent fight. This fight would especially be in the Predator's favor if they are rocking Sat-Coms (which they probably are since it's apart of their wrist gauntlet) which will give them the schematics of Arkham City which can help them identify areas to set up shop (camp out), alleys and dead ends that can be used to ambush, help to find key locations, and to help track and find all parties in this battle. With these factors I see the Predators laying low trying to stay under the radar while using their gear to lure the weaker teams into ambushes and play the surviving teams against each other and the elements that are involved in this battle. To put it simple the Predators win because they have more experience and better gear that will allow them to weasel out a victory here.

Good points in favor of the Predators. They are one of the top tactitions in this match.

I swear aliens and predators are sooooooo underrated.

They are a threat to all teams the way I see it.

Excellent thread. Positions and experience make all of the difference in the world. Batman knows Arkham's layout better than anyone here. However, Robin has experience within the prison as well, and Daredevil's radar sense could layered out the area for him and give valuable intel to his team. The biggest threat here are the Predators. Their high level of skill and experience would aid them greatly here. They could easily gain knowledge of AC and maneuver through the area quickly.

However, I would like to go in more detail. For team two, you have amazing combatants across the board. Captain America, BP and Green Arrow could match or even pull a win against Batman. Red Robin is no slouch himself, and him and T'Challa are very intelligent which is a plus for the team. Cap and BP slightly superhuman athleticism could allow them to keep up with Predator threats across the city. Robin's tech, Robin and BP intelligence, Cap's tactical knowledge and the whole team being accomplished fighters and all being team players from experience, I really think they could pull it off. Plus, their starting location is completely far and isolated away from the other teams. They already have a good amount of territory to themselves, and with that being the industrial area of AC, plenty of hiding spots to set up ambushes. Team 3 is directly across from them, so it would be best for them to attack and attempt to annex their province into their own. This would give them a huge strategical ground against the other teams. BP and Robin could set up traps along the border to hold back any intruding Predators or such. Plus, the have a subway system that allows for a plethora of tactical plans and executions.

For Team 4, this is very interesting. Vamp is superhuman by far, and DD's radar is a significant advantage to the team. Both Vamp and DD have superhuman senses, and because of that, the Predators could never effectively sneak up on them unless with the use of gadgets. Vamp can easily keep up with a Predator and anyone else on the other teams, plus unless Snake is packing syringes full of nanomachines, they can't put him down permanently. Jason Todd himself has shown to be a better fighter than Tim, and is willing to kill, and has good exp with prep. This team is a lethal combo, but I don't think they would cooperate together efficiently to take over the provinces of Arkham City. They are located directly next to Poison Ivy's layered though, which requires superhuman agility or gadgets to reach their, so they have the initial advantage of prep here for the scenario. Plus, Bronze Tiger has defeated Batman if I'm correct.

Team 1, Batman is obviously the greatest asset to them. A couple of things to mention however. Electra is not a equal or better fighter than most of the other guys all included in this scenario. She lacks the MA feats that suggest she could keep up with DD, Nightwing, Bane, Vamp, Robin, BP, Cap etc. That low level TP she has is dumb and I'm going to disregard it because she seldom uses it like ever...What does Cain have that suggests he could beat the other fighters I listed? Has he fought Bronze Tiger before? Snake is a competent soldier and has good feats, but as much as I love him, he could lose in a straight up fight against an experienced Predator or most of others on the other teams. This team is going to have to rely on Bat's experience and knowledge and the skills they already have here. Others might disagree, but I think this has the greatest advantage and disadvantage at the same time. A direct conflict with Team 2 or 4 in their respective territories would be a grave mistake. BM can hold himself, but this team is going to have to rely on tricks and stealth to gain ground. With Batman and his intel of AC and prep, that alone could allow them to gain strategic holdings of the city, but with the Predators, it would advise to use teamwork when on the ground of AC.

Team 3, well Nightwing wasn't part of AC canon-wise so I can't estimate for certain his familiarity of the prison. All are capable fighters howerver, especially NW and BW. You kind of handicapped Bane by putting him on Venom though. The rest of the team are very acrobatic and agile and it would be hard seeing Bane keep up with them in a fight against Team 2 or 3. Bane has experience himself though, he gave Batman the locations of the Titan containers so he knows the layout, which is a plus for the team. I can't say too much about this team when compared to the others.

My vote goes to Team 2 because their the best "Team" here. Team players, martial artists, leadership, they're the complete package. I'm all up for debate though.

OMG I ignored the aliens lol. Well, that makes this more interesting...

Here is a link to a thread containing physical feats for the Predator, they outclass everyone here a good degree physically. http://www.comicvine.com/forums/battles/7/deadpool-vs-smiley-predator/670074/

Red Robin, Black Panther, Green Arrow, and Captain America

Wow, you make some very good points here.

Lol, no one has picked Red Skull and Ra's to come out on top. Though I must say I see the Predators and Aliens taking out most of their unit, along with most of the other inmates in the city.

Im gonna go with team 2 but those predators and aliens are gonna do some damage

They most certainly would.

Team 3.

More familiar with the turf with exception of team 1.

Likely sit the first skirmish out due to their starting location. Also least likely to encounter aliens on random routes, due to location. When they get their first contact, they'll likely be fresh. In a survival type game, let your enemies feed on each other first. 3 is in a good spot to do that.
