Chief will win if he gets close, but one hit from that mace will f**k Chief up, badly. Take that brute hitting that spartan, take half, add that, then hit him with it. Thats quite a bit of force hitting him, itll at least crush his rib cage and put bone splinters into his major organs. She survived maybe 5 minutes or less after that shot, and she couldnt move. Thats all it takesBesides, if im right it was pretty much a suprise attack with only 5 spartans, and John really didnt do much, he lost to that Elite i think....
Been a while since i watched Legends
It did not need to be stated which Spartan version she was: she was in the Mark VI armor. That particular design was worn exclusively by the Spartan II spartans.
Additionally:
http://halo.wikia.com/wiki/Cal-141
She's a Spartan II, as fact.
And the mace? It wouldn't even come close to the power that that Brute had.
Why?
Because Brutes are far thicker and stronger than a human. Sauron was a large human, in the film, but there's no way he even remotely approaches 1500 lbs. His mace isn't anywhere near as massive as that giant gravity-hammer, either. The "handle" on the mace doesn't even come close, either. So there's these factors:
Lever arm: far longer on the gravity-hammer for the Brute.
Mass: The gravity hammer is many times more massive than the mace.
Strength of the user: The brute is obviously much stronger.
Speed: the Brute can obviously swing his much larger hammer much faster.
What happened to the Spartan II? She died from her wounds, but lived after the first blow due to her awesome armor and super-human strength and durability.
Additionally, Brutes are even stronger than it would appear: they come from a planet that has twice the gravity of Earth's. This is why they are so much stronger and faster, for their size, than if you enlarged a human to their size.
John didn't lose to any elites. He kicked ass an took names.

Depends, if your throwin around a Prius........Anyways, its WAY more than 150 pounds. Think around 250-300 pound Numenoreans encased in 60-100 pounds of steel. Thats quite a bit.
Im giving the description from the books, not sure if thats allowed, since they were never described in the books and never shown next to anything other than each other.
Numenoreans are taller than your average man, and posses strength and skill far surpassing the others. They range from around 6'8-7'5
Elendil The Tall was 7'11 tall. They were all wearing plate armor and chain mail, with their weights, they weigh about as much as a small car.
My source for that is the Silmarillion.
But yeah, they are by no means light
Over 1000lbs is much greater than 400lbs. And do not remember Sauron knocking around anyone but humans and elves.
Keep in mind that she did not flatten to the ground, like any human or elf would have done under such a blow. She acted as if she was just punched with a haymaker: not a giant gravity hammer blow.
And, I think the descriptions should be allowed as long as they don't contradict the movies.
I never saw a Numenorean get smacked aorund by Sauron in the film.
