surprises me it hasnt been done

what do you think and why?

I'm sure it has, I've thought about this for years now..

My bastard enemy of a SW fan says IG-88 but I say HK-47.. So it's still anybody's guess. I'm not the biggest SW fan, so I'll let somebody else handle this..

HK-47 seems more capable, but IG is supposed to be top of the line. It could go either way, I suppose.

UNless HK has a Mandalorian disruptor assault rifle.

I think IG88 looks cooler. Period!

IG looks like a reject from a fifties sci fi horror show, or worse, a lightning rod with arms.

uhh what is that

An assault rifle that is illegal and pumps out more rounds per minute than any Imperial carbine or rifle. The shots are disruptor type, meaning they destroy things at a molecular level and they ignore all personal shields.

In short, imagine slagging someone to death with minifireballs or something. Really gruesome weapon.

I like Mandalorians in warfare.

oh way doesnt Boba or Jango have one and did you see my sig PM?

Haven't had the time to work on your sig yet, and Boba and Jango obviously don't need such heavy weapons, since they aren't in war and they never attack fortified positions, large groups, nor more than perhaps one or two jedi opponents. Notice that when Jango got into a situation where there was more than zero jedi on the planet he fled. They are bounty hunters, and as such they pick their battles.

got ya. the mandilorians used them of coarse. and okay i dont need it right away.

I'm rootin for HK here. But technically, shouldn't IG-88 win, since he is technologically superior?

IG would win I think. He gave Boba a real hard time, and I doubt HK could do that. IG also infitrated the second Death Star. That take skill. Add that to him being a war droid instead of a Assassin droid and he wins.

this is a 1 on 1. Assassin>solider in a shoot/grenade/detonator/lots of other things out

I wouldn't underestimate HK's technology... If Revan has any kind of brain he probably used the Star Forge to create HK parts. The technology has to be good and powerful and he is programmed to kill Jedi.. You are going to know how to use weapons if you can do that.

You really think an assassin could take a solider in a straight fight?

Yeah

trained assasin that was trained by a great sith vs a soilder that is never "trained". Yes i think HK-47 can win

i'm with fishy and and DA

Yeah, and even though HK-47 might be technologically inferior (due to his being created much earlier, although he was probably made at the Starforge) I'd have to say that he is probably also much more intelligent and adaptable than IG-88, and knows how to use what he has better than IG-88. I bet HK would find some way to outsmart IG and waste him.

WTH?? There actually is a book on IG-88!!?
Anybody please tell me wich one it is!!!

HK-47 would find a way to win, he seems to be more "human" in "nature".

IG-88 truly is a cold-blooded killing machine. So is HK, but with a sense of hummanity in his smart ass comments and personality. Because of these human-like traits, he is much more inclined to go the extra mile, and devise a way to win..

i like th hk character alot more, but i'm unsure about a fight, i guess it would depend on location and available weaponry.

lets say hk has his typical heavy blaster rifle and they are fighting at old war bunkers where they could find cover.

Thats really unrealistic when you look at HK.. From all we know he was always equipped with rockets, blasters several kinds even the illegal one's (Mandelorian kinds) and a flamethrower or two... Some grenades and mines... He would take IG 88 with that... And thats his standard equipement probably.

which one is a droid bent on conquering the galaxy and which one is the dude from cruise liners he went crazy and eventually worked for jabba

Hk also likes disruptor weapons and Mandalorian technology.

they're very confusing

wait, backtrack for a minute, an assassin can't take a soldier in a straight fight (assuming they have the same skill in what they do), assassination is all about indirect fighting.

It comes down to whoever gets the first attack. One round from a Mandalorian ripper and IG is scrap. But if the latter can get out a blast with his pulse weapon, he'll melt HK.

yeah, it kinda stinks when it comes down to that, it makes it difficult, oh well.

Nobody knows because nobody reads SW literature. Only HP.
