Not yet, too busy working. If I see something that sways my judgement on this, I'll have no problem admitting it.

Sure, if you wanna ignore the facts I provided, thats your call.

All you are providing is your opinion, I showed that Batman can easily be shot by thugs in an alley with pistols.

Swagger, armed with a G36 that fires over 700 rounds a minute and has a 100 round drum magazine, well........I guess you are gonna ignore that too.

I'm not going to read 8 pages of RJ vs. The World, so is the scenario the same?

Swagger on an hill with a twisting road leading up to it? Because if it is, then this thread should be closed, seeing as how it pretty much gives Swagger the full advantage.

Read the opening post. Everything is the same. And make sure you have seen Shooter and watched the vid I just posted, and make sure you check the links I provided as to what weaponry Swagger will have.

Yeah pretty much. He tailored it in that fashion.

I did read the opening post and I thought by this time, page 11, that you would have changed the scenario.

But because you want Swagger to win, nothings changed and the whole fight scenario is one-sided.

Not really, Swagger has sniper gear, Batman has Bat gear. Problem is the "world" is so used to seeing him fight in Gotham.

Yeah, really.

Following the storyline of Shooter, doesnt it make all the sense in the world that Swagger would escape to a battleground of his liking?

Following Batman's storyline, knowing he even has an affinity for guns, he'd take him out no matter what?

He'd try, no doubt. But in the end Swagger would tear Bat to ribbons.

You are ignoring the fact that I showed proof that Batman can be shot, by thugs with little or no training. Swagger, with his weaponry, in your opinion, will never get a shot off.

Way to ignore the obvious. Answer this, those two guys who shot Batman, whats your opinion on them? As far as being badasses?

So that merits giving him an arsenal of weapons, a terrain advantage and saying that Batman is just going to ride up the road towards him?

Speaking of Batman riding towards him, you say you were made a fan of Batman because of "Begins". So that means you noticed, or at least I hope you did, that Batman doesn't just ride/walk/run up to people unless he has to. He does everything he can to get the jump on his enemies.

If you make a fight thread, make it fair on both levels.

And you ignore all the facts of Batman because you simply want Swagger to win.

I never said "Batman just drives up to him." I said he makes his way to the battleground in the Batmobile, thats all.

The weapons I gave him are all standard sniper gear. The G36 was a random pick for an assault rifle, the glock was a random pick for a sidearm. The .50 cal rifle he is shown using in the movie, and snipers regularly use claymores to cover their back. Snipers use thermal goggles too, BTW.

If Batman has all his gadgets and the Batmobile, why cant Swagger have all the tools of his profession?

And if Batman cannot adapt to fighting in a foreign environment, while Swagger is trained to fight in any scenario presented to him, who is the better combatant?

Batman can adapt, it's just that he has no chance to with this scenario.

The scenario is probably what Swagger would do if he were on the run. He is a trained professional, wouldn't you choose a likable environment to fight in if Batman were chasing you?

And again, all the gear I gave Swagger is shit that snipers use. He actually OWNS a .50 caliber sniper rifle, which has been known to penetrate armored cars, BTW.

Would you feel better if they were to fight on the streets of Gotham, Bob Lee armed with a damn revolver and with green hair?

I'm not ignoring anything, Batman was shot by those two thugs so that Tim Burton could portray his Bat-Armor and also flesh out the villain's curiousity of who's under the mask. It was a plot device to help out Batman's mysterious identity. It was never meant to show: "Hey, look he can be killed." If you watched the vid yourself, you'de also know he's playing dead.

So now you are speaking for Tim Burton? Did you like write the script?

That could have been portrayed any number of ways, fact is Batman was shot by two thugs with little if any training, and Bob Lee, with his training and weaponry, would make mincemeat of him.

If it was a .50 cal rifle round, or a barrage of G36 fire, he wouldn't be "playing" dead. He would in fact "be" dead.

Swagger isn't gonna say "Hey, I shot him, he's down, I wonder what he looks like?"

He is gonna make sure Bat is dead for certain. Trained killer....thug.......big difference.
