Prawns versus Xenos...

oh well in that case. i give both rounds to the Xenos. Although, the Prawns do have a much better chance. However, i'm wondering how the Queens presence will affect the Xenos. It may actually weaken them to have her on the battlefield. The Xenos will have to be on full assault, in my opinion, to beat the prawns. The Queen may actually make them more defensive and reckless. I don't think a single Battlesuit will make much of a difference though.

A Queen is nothing but a bigger target. You seriously think she'd fair better than a Drone.

Wikus on the other hand has more firepower than the latest Iron Man suit.

QFT.

In this scenario, a Queen would probably fare worse than a drone, since she is such a large, easy target whereas drones have decent agility to dodge attacks.

A good shock and awe element though. Could distract the prawns for a little bit allowing some drones to slip in, and even if they die, there'll be a gooey surprise.

😂 yeah, even though Iron Man seemed a bit underwhleming in the latest movie he would still scrap that biosuit like a tin can. Like others have stated, i think the acid from a few xeno corpses would render that biosuit useless.

I'm not sure your getting it. We've seen how 3 Predators with limited weaponry stood against hundreds of thousands of Xenomorphs and failed miserably.

Here, you have an equal number of Prawns, who have superior scientific intellect and weaponry to the Yautja.

Prawn win both scenarios.

No, no one else is getting it.

The Predators= Buncha badasses, disciplined hunters with high tech.

The Xenos= Buncha fearless killing machines, tough as nails.

The Prawns= More advanced weaponry. But they are undisciplined, unorganized, without leadership. All they do is stay high on cat food all day.

yeah and we've also seen how just a dozen or so Xenos raped three predators. I'm also not sure how keen the Prawns intellect (as a whole) is. As we saw in District 9 most of the Prawn were'nt very intelligent at all. They seemed to barely understand how to function as a society. If there intellect is so high i think they would have been able to utilize their resources better to make better living conditions for themselves.

They were uneducated slaves high on catfood iirc. The main character Prawn was the only one with some actual brains.

Indeed. Wikus: "This one's a bit sharper."

While the bulk of the D-9 aliens were workers/drones (as explained), any moron can still aim and fire a weapon.

Yeah, but how will they react as a few Xenos slip through?

Probably try and shoot them as the Xenomorph kills one of their own. They're not geniuses, but they're certainly not retards incapable of fighting/defending themselves.

Or they could panic and run.

Or not.

Yeah, some could, would depend on the individual.

I'd bet that more/most would stand and fight for their home and families, as that's what at stake here.

I'd say roughly half/half. Gotta remember some are women and children.

I was taking it as a million capable D-9 aliens vs a million Xenomorphs.

If it's about 500K capable fighters to 1M Xenomorphs, I still think one armed D-9 alien is a match for 2 Xenomorphs in this setting. But a swarm overrun is possible.

The first two are correct. But you really do the Prawns a diservice by not including their superior intellect. Not all of them are very smart but the ones that are dwarf what we've seen from either of the other two races.

So you literally just gimped it to make it 1 Million vs 500,000 fighters? Lol hilarious.
