Who wins? This is a War Predators only have there staff,hunting knives & hooks AVP is facing the 10,000 Uruk-hai from Helm's Deep and how every many attack Minas Tirith and the ones from the black gate including Goblin Men the Trolls,Warg Riders and Oliphants. Also no bows and arrows on the Isengard & Mordo army

So 4000 of the Universes greatest hunters and predators take on a 10,000 strong mob of badly trained, ill equipped savages whom got railroaded by Cavalry ?

Yeah I'm going with A&P on this.

It'd be 10,000 from Helms Deep, the 180,000-230,000 from the battle of Minas Tirith, and all the other dudes he mentioned against the 4,000 aliens/predators.

Feh.

The Preds will eventually lose, Aliens though will impregnate or transform too many so they'll have self re-newing forces.

Burning thought
hmm good chance either way, aliens are pretty tough, every one the orcs may kill the acid is likely to kill most orcs in a group, if this is just orcs i think Aliens and preds have a fair chance, unfrotunatley preds aint the same without all their equipment

SuperiorTech
Aliens and Pedators ftw

If you are including all the armies of Isengard AND Mordor, then they win easily. As good as the Aliens and Predators might be, there are way too many people on team one's side, not to mention the Nazgul, dragons, trolls, Shelob, and the Balrog.

Hell no son.

Some pansies in shitty armour take on 2000 highly trained galactic warriors and they will DIE.

1. How long are Men of Minas Tirith trained for ? Bet it isn't from Birth.

P -1 MT-0

2. The Men of Numenor in their Prime were scared shitless of Sauron on the battlefield whom had inhuman strength. Preds casually take on Queens with delight and can kick over tanks.

P - 2 MT- 0

3. Minas Tirith tech is made from crude workmanship of ordinary minerals and alloys. Preds have Alien weaponry far sharper and durable then the shoddy pieces of crap used by the men of MT.

P - 3 MT- 0

Shall I go on ? Lets not , it's starting to become a little embarrassing for us humans.

Anyway.....

Shelob - Giant f*cking Spider, nothing a Pred can't handle. Hell ONE predator cleaned out an entire planet of fiercer creatures in Concrete Jungle

Balrog was on no ones side save its own

Dragons ? Oh you mean the Nazgul's mounts. They were killed by 1 arrow and a single sword swing. Hunting Trophy anyone ?

Nazgul are the only pain in the ass here.

illadelph12
I think the Xenomorphs on their own could kill all the LoR characters.

You do realize how many warriors are on the opposite side, right? There's a few hundred thousand on that side. If you give 200,000 humans with weapons against the 2,000 aliens and predators, and they would have a shot at winning.

They weren't just scared of him because of his strength. They were scared of him because going into the battle they had heard rumors of how powerful and terrible he was. Going into the battle, they finally confront him, a (roughly) 10-foot demon looking creature who wipes out about a dozen men with each swing.

Read the intro. Predators have staff, hunting knife, and hook. Nothing about armor, and the last time I checked, a predator's body can be harmed by conventional weapons.

Deathstroke
Are the armies just fighting in an open field?

Scoobless
Even Orcs would sh!t themselves at the sight of 2000 Aliens after seeing what they can do.

ETs win via "runaway".


yes

SuperiorTech
Aliens go in first their strong, fast, and very durable takes alot fo put these guys down.Having acid for blood is an added bonus they will go threw most of the army themselves and then the predators can do clean up.

Deathstroke
I'm still not sold on the A's and P's winning this. They'd be outnumbered about 75-1 not including Oliphants and such that could trample several enemies a piece before going down. There would be a lot of dead orcs laying around after this though.

Exactly. I have no doubt the aliens and predators will cause massive casualties to this army. If you put them against just the 10,000 Uruk-hai, I'd give them the win 10/10. But against this many is just insane.

illadelph12
It's not really so insane when you consider that with each casualty the Xenomorph's cause they could potentially implant an embryo into the victim and increase their own numbers exponentially, not to mention the fact that a majority of the opposition are cowardly and would run in fear of a Xenomorph drone, let alone a Queen or Xenomorph/Pred Hybrid. If Legalos can take down a stampeding Oliphant and all of it's riders I'm pretty sure a Predator or Xenomorph could. One Xenomorph can kill dozens of people. Particularly when their prey is only armed with close range bladed weaponry.

This is a time-consuming process. It wouldn't be an effective tactic during a fight of this magnitude.

Nothing was mentioned about a Queen or hybrid, so we can't use those. They are cowardly in a fight, but they don't show cowardice when they outnumber their enemy, which they definitely do here.

I'll concede that, but an Oliphant is still going to cause casualties.

Here's the thing. Even if one killed dozens of people, it still won't be enough. Assuming it's 2,000 predators and 2,000 aliens, they are still outnumbered around 50-1. If it's 2,000 aliens and predators combined, then that's 100-1. Is that really possible? Doesn't seem so to me.

one predator simply decides to self destruct in order to get the most kills
and go to predator paradise and get his 72 earth virgins.

golem370
I thought the pods were the only way to seed people? No ring wraiths you have the 10,000 Uruk-hai from Two Towers and the Warg Riders. The combined army on Return of the King the one who stormed Minas Tirith including the the ones at the end that Aragorn & company fought at the black gate of Mordo also not just Uruk-hai but the giant trolls that had battle armor and the Oliphants

Deathstroke
Do the predators have their cloaking ability for this fight?

golem370
No but from what I seen like in Predator the movie he was like 10 times stronger then a normal man and had superior agility stamina and reflexes they also have superior fighting skills. The Aliens in my opinion are just as fast if not faster there meanier and pretty damn strong also. The Predators each get those throwing stars there hooks staff and a hunting knife

Deathstroke
Are the throwing stars like the disc from predator 2 that can cut through just about anything?

golem370
Yeah but they only get like 3 of them

Inhuman
disc from predator 2 will cut everyone down rather quickly. Even trolls, eliphants, dragons, ect.

Alright no discs

Are we allowed to take Predators combatform from the comic books into account??? Ore is this purely The predators from the Movies???

Also someone ealier mentioned that Predators could be harmed by convential Weapons, how many shotgun shot was fired at blank range into a predator in Predator 2 without it dying ore even showing signs of being affected???

In Predator 2 the Predator was hit with liquid nitrogen to no effects. That was pretty cool. And in AVP one was hit with a flame thrower harmlessly. Predators have good durability.

And if your 200,000 humans have weaponry equivalent to a knife in a gunfight then their suuuuuuuuuure to win roll eyes (sarcastic) . Numbers are a good strategy , but when the numbers are using shitty weaponry and have weak willed emotions then their just being set up for a fall.

Meh, the humans are still quite fearful. Who the f*ck in their right MIND would want to take on 4000 A&P ? Trained Marines went crazy after a few Aliens started decimating their ranks.

Doctor-Alvis
When I was little I was terrified of that disc. And then cds were becoming popular and I was never supposed to touch them... man, what was a 7 year old doing watching Predator 2?

Anyway, I think the Xenomorphs and Predators have a good shot because of their stealth and speed. And power. They'd likely hang out out in the woodsy areas. If the armies just rush in they'd get massacred. If they went for deforesting, they'd still take heavy losses but could get them all. If they just torched it all, that would make things a bit more complicated.

Do the Aliens have ways of creating queens or do they start with one? If so, the armies would get overran fairly fast.

This isn't melee vs. ranged weapons. It's melee vs. melee. The fact that the predators are more skilled and have more advanced weapons just means they will kill more than at a 1 to 1 ratio. And yes, numbers aren't everything, but when they are THIS overwhelming, it's hard to overcome.

He didn't ignore it. He ended up patching up his shotgun wounds along with his hand later on. So it obviously hurt him.

I cant see the Preds and Aleins wiinning there are just too many. I mean hell the even have aerial attack. I mean do the preds have any ranged attack at all?

Yeah I'm going with A&P on this.

....dont you think you're blowing things out or proportion. That happened with one part of the army and they hand gandalf helping them....it didnt happen at that....other place were they needed a ghost army to help them. They would have also lost if Frodo hadnt destoryed the ring when they attacked the black gates....there just too many this is absurd.

Alfheim
Actually ive just thought of a way in which they could win...I mean if its battlefield some prep is involved....they dont just get telepoted there and fight

Meh...i want the preds to win btu I cant see it happening.

golem370
What if the predators are elder predators and not just your everyday Predators.

Newjak
I don't know.

Preds are tough and their weapons are very tough.

I think a tight circle of Pred's against such an inferior foe would be hard as hell to break for these people. Especially without arrows and the like.

golem370
I would think in a tight circle they would be over powered but let say the Predators are in the middle of the LOTR army but the aliens are on the outside of the army

Newjak
You'd think so but a circle of 2,000 Preds against such clrealy inferior foes.

Plus circling up means the people can only attack with so many people at once.

The Pred's have the far better weapons and strength and skill.

I don't even know they the army could even kill a pred until the Pred's got tired and then maybe sloppy but they are highly durable and have good Stamina.

golem370
Well yeah the predators the way you want them and the aliens the ways I said. But you also has Wolves of Isengard who are quite strong and pretty quick and those trolls who are very powerful maybe twice as strong as a predator and pretty durable too

Newjak

But any real threat like maybe the wolves or trolls would get taken down with the disks fairly easily.

I just think despite the numbers the Pred's control this fight because

A) 2000 Aliens are going to tear through that army worse than any Balrog ever could.

B) 2000 tightly formed Pred's will be harder to break than the 300 Spartans were. I mean until the Pred's begin to tire I don't see the army even killing a single pred. They are tough and their weapons will break through anything hurled at them easily.

snoopdogg
Imo a Predator>Spartan.

golem370
Wouldn't the Predator's be out of there element since there hunters and not really warriors although in AVP it was what three Predators vs a swarm of Aliens but they had there cannons in those fights. It would be one hell of a fight by all means.

Newjak
They are both Hunters and Warriors

snoopdogg
Yea, they hunt dangerous prey to move up the ranks iirc. They do have armies.

Superman said it best in one of the crossovers with Predators:

"They aren't evil, they're just dangerous".

You're giving the Predators way too much credit. Predators won't fight like the Spartans because that's not their style. They are hunters. They don't wait for enemies to come to them.

And the only reason the Spartans were able to hold on as long as they did was because of the narrow passage. If they tried that same tactic in an open battlefield, they would have gotten slaughtered.

No disks in this fight. I know about the Spartans.

I was just affirming that any organized Pred's even in a circle will be harder to break than the 300 were.

The Pred's have every advantage in this match except for numbers. I don't even think they will lose a Pred until they tire a lot and by then wave after wave of the Army will be dead.

The Opening Post said they did

golem370
Those weapons they pull out then shake and it unfolds are the weapons that they do have not the ones that Glover cut the Predators arm off with.

A well thrown disc would take the head of a troll off. Probably numerous trolls. In one of the comics a single disc took the heads off like 4 humans with one throw.

golem370
The Predators each get those throwing stars there hooks staff and a hunting knife

It took quite abit to kill that Cave Troll Legolis even shot him in the head and he didn't drop. I would say all together in there armies they're will be 20 armored trolls 10 Oliphants and 20 Wolves

snoopdogg
Legolas was putting down Wolves with a single arrow.

Gecko4lif
they could pull it off if they fought in waves and cycles

I see the preds and aliens winning

They certainly will be, but the Predators won't be defensive waiting for attacks. They will be offensive like they always are, and that will leave them open to attacks.

Ok good if you could give us a roguh figure because that helps give some idea of the odds. For example if all the Prdators threw there spears at the enemy they could possibly kill 2000 of the enemy.....etcetc


Originally posted by golem370

Ok think we might stick with the younger ones then....at any case the younger ones are good enough especillay if youi give them the throwing stars that will make one hell of a difference.

Aliens can go on the frontline, as soon as the enemy find out they are acidic all hell is going to lose. The Predators stand behind the alliens throwing the stars. The combination of the aliens and the stars will create huge losses. Even if they lose the stars then can stab at the enemy from behind the aliens.

Hell even before the aliens reach the enemy the pred can use the stars to launch a long ranga attack.

There were about 10,000 Uruk-Hai at Helm's Deep, about 250-300,000 orcs and trolls at Pelennor Fields, and around 60,000 orcs and trolls at the Black Gate.

At any rate we got 300, 000 for our exact figure. Can anyone confirm wether the orcs were fearless because fear will be an important factor. When they find out that the aliens are acidic this will cause chaos. Hell even if they get suqished by an elephant the elphant will retreat when they feel the acid. the odds are 300 to 1 though.

Heres how I plan the battle:

Charge the enemy. Aliens in front Preds at back before you are in striking distance throw your stars, several thousand will probably die befroe you reach them. When you finally reach them the aliens with the sheer ferocity wil scare the soldiers as well as when they find out they are acidic, this will cause chaos in the rank. The only problem with this is that certain types of orcs actually seem fearless and even if they are getting cut down by acid fear wont mopve them back but pain will. While the aliens are cutting a path through the enmy the preds keep throxing the stars. What happen is that the aliens and pred aremy become like a massive lawn mower.

They have a speed advantage as well. Preds are many times faster than well trained humans. They could literially run circles around the enemy throwing stars at them. Until the army is small enough to engage.

I also think something like this happened in histroy 200, 000 Celts took on something like 20, 0000 or 2000 Romans. The Romans put up a barrier, used their shields as portection and slashed at the celts and marched forward. The Celts at the front ended up getting crushed because people at the front were dying and the Romans kept marching forward.

The only problem is that the battle took back in rekativelly narrow envinronment not an open field like this battle.

According to golem, he's giving them 3 stars each, so they can't keep circling them. Even if they didn't run out, 2,000 can't circle 300,000 without being EXTREMELY thinned out.

If this was a narrow passage, then I don't doubt the Predators could kill every single one of these guys. But in an open field, it's not happening.

Quite true, but the Predators have never been shown to be impervious to slashing or cutting weapons.

Inhuman
So Preds get their hunting spears, 3 throwing starts each, and their arm blades(wolverine like) ? What about their nets?
If they were experianced preds or elders they might stand a chance.
Aliens are frontline bricks. When killed would still take out an ork or 2 with their acid.
Should have added face huggers as well. TroLiens? DragonLiens? EliPhantLiens?

JackieCD
Team 2.

snoopdogg
Are the Predators allowed their cloaking devices?

SpiderGauntlet
The predators could easily kill 20,000+ people with their shurikens.

Orcs would likely disperse, urakai unlikely disperse but Orcs, they are cowardly critters, they would end up fleeing and their ranks would break up, also numbers dont always win, not even these huge numbers, i think preds and aliens take this with ease now ime looking at things

preds with their high tech weapons would slash right through the ranks of the orcs like a hot knife through butter, their terribly equiped, since all they have is numbers and this will not count for much considering half the orcs wil start to retreat or regroup elsware

Er....yeah. If they are at the front this may be a bit of a problem because they wont retreat until their dead or they cant walk. If the others are at the front the others will shit their pants and run especially when the acid starts to spill.

Depends. Golem said Elders were more experienced and more skilled but not nceesarily tougher, so I said we might stick to the younger ones. As far as im concerned if the Elders will be tougher then the younger ones then all the preds are Elders. I want to give the preds the best odds.

Let mE put it like this.....

Warriors understand that --while they are heavily skilled-- to take down a Nest of Aliens and a Queen it is almost necessary to have a Plasma Caster.

Elders on thew other hand kill entire nests and Queens with their BARE HANDS

how many aliens in a nest and how many queens? How many Elders?

An average Nest can have between 25-200 Aliens in it. While never explicitly stated , it is implied only a single Elder and usually a singular Queen.

Within Ya'juta society their is no concept of 'retirment'. You either get so old that you become sloppy and die or you become STRONGER and receive the revered status of 'Elder'.

Much props to the Predators. A single Elder would probably take out 1000+ Isengard / Mordo troops by himself.

I am however, unsure about the accuracy of my statement. I may be getting Elders confused with Pred-aliens. I'm about 60% sure i'm right.

What you mean they might have been younger ones? If thats the case its a win win situation. Eitther way were sticking with Elder preds.

Well thats because the only bladed weapon they have been hit with so far a weapon of there own design a weapon capable of resisting the Acid from Aliens and cutting through Steel Without problems, more then can be said for the Mordor blades, thats why I find it unlikely that a slash from the mordor blades will hurt a Predator smile

preds with their high tech weapons would slash right through the ranks of the orcs like a hot knife through butter, their terribly equiped, since all they have is numbers and this will not count for much considering half the orcs wil start to retreat or regroup elsware

Agreed we all saw how the orcs trembled with fear when Rohan attacked imagine it is Aliens instead...

It was like 200.000 (some of the orcs inside the city so I discount 100.000) orcs against what was there 12.000 rohirem and they ran straigth through them.

I'm talking about the third film the battle at minas Tirith there was like 300.000 orcs outside the city in the beginning at the battle then the Orcs with there siege ram manage to knockdown the gates and then Orcs pour into the city so I did a quick calculation and said that there was 200.000 orcs left outside the city, these troops outside the city was then cut down by the Forces of Rohan smile

There is a great difference between the orcs from the the LOTR I and II and the orcs from III.

Decimated by the Oliephants not the orcs that in the movie had already ran for the River. But agreed the Dunharrow assured the Humans the victory.

Not the Uruk (orcs seen in LOTR III) the ones you are talking about are the Uruk-Hai's (Orcs seen in LOTR I and II) and they are more deadly IMO then the Uruk's but there are still only like 10.000 of them.

Well basically yeah. Golem offered to change it to Elders, golem stated that elders maybe more skilled but not neccesarily tougher. I then said maybe we should stick to young preds but since grey fox confirmed their badassnes were sticking to Elders. I think thats only fair. Golem confirmed that the army is 300,000 and there are only 2000 preds and aliens.

its not official but I dont se Golem having a problem and GF was fine with what I said....so elder preds it is.

Well if we are going by the movie we then saw what 12000 horseriders did to the orc army, and I would find 2000 aliens running at me much more scary and elder predators too I know it sounds insane but I think the A&P stands a chance of winning

I know....basically this is how I plan it. Wipe out the uruk hait first. They most likely will be sent off first.

Elders throw spears. 2000 uruk hai gone. Elders throw two stars at the same time another 4000 uruk hai, the range of the stars is not that great and would probably been thorwn while they are charging. by the time UH get to them there will be only 4000 left..another double star throw..another 4000 left....teh sic the aleins on them. All the elders need to do is just basically walk behind them and stab wt whovere is left.

Scattered doesn't mean beaten. They scattered because there were thousands of horses charging at full speed after them.

Not sure. CIS is on...so when they get splashed with acid they will hit the gas. At any rate one Elder pred can take a nest full of aliens including the queen with its bare hands. One Elder could probably kill hundreds of orcs.

golem370
In a open range fight the aliens would not have any where to sneak up on people they would be a little off in a field fight but aliens are strong and fast. It would be cool to see the wolves fighting a alien also I think the trolls will do some damage. I think the Aliens and Predator each need a general for direction.

I dunno man they are Elders plus Preds have an extended lifespan so they have greater scope to get better. Hell younger preds are mad enoguh as it is so it not that much of a stretch.

Oh I have no doubt Elders are bad ass. It wouldn't surprise me to see them kill a couple dozen aliens with their bare hands. But to kill an entire nest of up to 200 aliens plus the queen, I'd have to see scans of that. I can't imagine anyone below Hulk-level doing that.
