Who wins?!

I have to thinnk about it... 
 
X-Men have telepaths, Iceman and Mags, while Externals have Apocalypse and Selene... I also remmeber only Cannonball beside them. I've once read comics with them and IIRC they didn't seem to be a big guns.

I have a question... Are the Externals the same team as the X-Ternals lead by Gambit?

I think the X-Men will win with the prep provided. Without prep, I think this battle would A LOT more difficult for the X-men due to Selene, Apoc and Candra. I see a chance for both teams to win in a random.

Ok, let see it after reading their sites:
 
Cyke>>>>> Saul
Colossus>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Crule
Jean & Emma >/= Selene & Apoc in TP fight.
Magneto > Candra 
Absalom would lose to anyone here.
 
Cannonball will be hold by Rogue.
 
Gideon is the biggest problem, but I doubt that he will be able to copy enough powers to not be defeated.
 
Besdies, X-Men will fight as a team. Storm by thunder-blitz will take Absalom,Crule and Saul. Apoc,Sam,Selene and probably Candra & Gideon will survive. 
 
Apoc and Selene are the only ones that can fight in astral plane from Externals and I highly doubt that they could win with Jean and Emma at once. Candra will lose fast, because her TK probably isn't good enough to take Magneto's attacks. Gideon will already have Storm's powers, but good co-operation between Wolvie and Kurt will be end of Gideon IMO, if he will be busy. 
So there is only Cannonball against so many mutants. IMO Magneto will find a way to take him down. Storm and Iceman can froze big guns which should give Jean and Emma some help. 
 
X-Men pretty easy win.

The X-Men.

Xmen win pretty handily.
