Action heroes run the gauntlet.

Action heroes run the gauntlet.

The combatants are the Terminator (T-850), Rambo and John McClane. They fight as a team, not individualy. The Terminator is armed with a pistol, M-16, the mini-gun from T2 and a grenade launcher. Rambo has his knife, bow & arrows and his M-60. McClane's got a pistol and SMG. They get time to heal and rest after each fight. Their opponents are armed with their standard equipment. The team has basic knowlege of their enemies. Fight to the death, ko or incapacitation.

1. Batman (Bale) Battle in Gotham.
2. Riggs and Murtaugh. Abandoned warehouse.
3. Wolverine. Hunt in the jungles of Vietnam.
4. The Black predators from Predators. Hunt on the jungle planet.
5. The Expendables (including Dolph's character) Fight on the island from the movie.
6. Robocop and Robocain. Battle in Detroit. The team gets 10 minutes of prep.

How far to they get?

Bonus round. They get one day of prep and take on Barakpool.

They make it to 3.

The bullets put Logan down but not for the long run.
He gets up and kills the Terminator and friends.
The Terminator can't rip Logan's bones apart so he wins in the long run.
Sooner or later Wolverine cuts the Terminators's head off then it's Game Over. Rambo and McClane were useless.

Logan was knocked out in X2 by a single bullet, Sabertooth knocked him out in X1 in a single hit with that tree. So he's not impossible to knock out and the Terminator is strong enough to do it and durable enough to withstand his claws at least for a while, not to mention the grenade launcher. I wouldn't put it past Rambo to use his jungle survival skills and act as a distraction and give the T-850 and McClane a chance to take him down.

I agree a direct bullet knocked Logan out in X2. But he was calm and in Wolverine Origins he copped a bullet to the head just fine. He was berserker mode though. Regardless, any damage done to Logan will result in him unleashing 10 secs later.

A grenade launcher will send Logan flying. He will heal all damage as he lands. As much damage as he did against Dark Phoenix's emotional resistance in X3.

Those claws will cut a Terminator apart. The Terminator can use everything in its disposal and Logan will just eventually slice it in half.

The cops won't last too long enough to make a difference.

They either stop at 4 or 6. Logan gets put to bed or has enough bullets in him that he wishes he was. I'm pretty sure that if a bullet to the head can KO for 10 sec, a grenade launcher down the throat will put him out for at least a couple minutes. Number 4 depends on how the predators act and if they come in close like they usually do to inspect a kill but all this hinges on the terminator and if he has thermal vision. For number 6 Robocain is just to heavily armored to be taken down. Without him I would give them the win but alas this is where they stop.

Didn't notice the KO in the OP, I guess Logan could go down. But with the advantage of the jungle his nose will give him a long term advantage against the team.

Logan's bullet feat is pretty bad but his Origins feat of taking a bullet to the skull kinda retracts the feat.

Any of them have this by themselves.

These 2 can be crafty and Riggs is has a chance against any of the opposing team, but Murtaugh, not so much. On the other hand they're gonna work better as team. All in all though the "action heroes" prevail.

With the Terminator working as the muscle and damage sponge this should be fairly easy.

Didn't Adrien Brody take those things out with a make shift tomahawk? As far as Predators go they kinda sucked. Yeah this round is a cake walk.

Man for man the Expendables may not be as tough and even that's debatable, but their are 6 of them. The "action heroes" have no chance they stop here

Sense the Expendables took out the "action heroes" they go a head and lay waste to these guys to.

Don't worry the Expendables will take care of this one as well.

ninjak, if Sabes could ko Wolverine in on shot with a tree I can see the T-850 (who had greater strength than Sabertooth) ko him. Also the shit the T-850 is made of is hard as hell, if he can cut him it won't be easy at all.

Riot-Gear, The Expendables are insanely good and they did take out a small island's army, but they'll have a hard time putting down the Terminator. Then there's Rambo and he's almost as much of a killing machine as the T-850, and on top of that there's the McClane factor to deal with. I can't see the Expendables having an easy victory here if they win at all.

McNasty996, the team does have basic knowledge on each of their opponents. They won't be going in completely blind like Dutch's or Brody's teams did. Also I'd say Rambo =/> Dutch. They can take the Predators.

I was referring to how the predators operate. If they spam the plasma cannon, they may win but it all depends on how they choose to fight it. In my opinion all of the later matches pretty much relies on the Terminator and while he does have credible feats that give resistance to plasma weaponry, I don't know if he can take 30 shots from those cannons back to back. I don't want to get into the Rambo vs. Dutch as that is a separate debate in itself but I'll just call them equal. All in all they get to cain but go down there, Cain is just too durable unless the grenade launcher has insane damage output or minigun is a vulcan cannon or they have c4.

They make it to 6.

Expendables should be swapped with Predators, heck even Wolverine. They are non-factors against the Terminator as they aren't capable of harming him.

Bonus round is really just Deadpool vs Terminator, the two humans get dispatched in under a second. Deadpool wins via heated optic blast, and port-n-slash/decapitate. This is assuming he can't outright control the Terminator since he does have Bradley's technopathy.

When have the Predators ever spammed the plasma cannon? They're in character and they're hunting them. They'll use their standard tactics.

As for Cain, it's a slim chance but if Robocop could beat him in the end by ripping out his brain than it's possible for the T-850 to do it as well with Rambo and McClane distracting him.

I don't think so. The Expendables were death machines, they showed up and wrecked a small army. Without one of their members by the way. If Adrian Brody's misfits could take out those predators than the Expendables would have stomped them, and Logan wouldn't have done better either. Those explosive rounds Crews had would probably deal some damage on the T-850.

Yeah, I figured as much. I added him just for fun. Only real chance they have is to take him out with them via the Terminator's exploding power cell.

I'm fairly certain that the only reason Wolverine was knocked out in X2 was because he was shot at the same spot the adamantium bullet hit him in Origin seeing how in origin the bullets from agent zero did nothing. Could be wrong though.

I don't think so.

Even if it did, Origin didn't exist back then they didn't know he had a hole in his head.

Between Gunnar M79, Hale's exploding shotgun rounds, C4 and truck load of grenades. The Terminator is not gonna be that hard to put down.

In fact I think in some ways Rambo is gonna be the hardest for them to deal with. 'cause he is far less likely to simply rush them. The way the Terminator would. In short the Terminator doesn't have much in the way of stealth feats.

Also I don't see the Expendables having an easy victory, but a victory none the less. Again its a numbers game. If Gunnar and Caesar are dealing with the Terminator, Christmas and Yang can deal with Rambo, and Ross and Toll are left to pound on McClane or multiple combinations their of.

Truth is any individual Expendable should be able to hold off McClane long enough to allow even more ganging up on Rambo or the Terminator. They are also going to have better team work.

I'll give you team work, but it won't be that simple. If I remember correctly the T-800 in Salvation (piece of crap that it is) got hit with a shot from a grenade launcher and it didn't do much to it, that massive explosion at the end of T1 didn't do anything more than burn of it's flesh, the T-850 took a powerful plasma attack and survived. As for Rambo, he's got a bigger body count than anyone else here and it's well deserved. He's as close to a killing machine as a human can be. Stopping him will be extremely difficult, especially with the Terminator tanking everything in front of him and McClane causing havoc left and right. Never underestimate John McClane, he's killed everything from professional thieves to soldiers.

My point is that hitting Wolverine at that exact spot will be luck, since the cop obviously didn't know, and somehow you had to explain why a guy that had his entire body covered in Adamantium could be knocked out by a bullet and the adamantium bullet from Origins is the best way to explain.

Legendary response. Unless any of the Action Hero team can hit him in just the right spot. Logan just keeps going.

Legendary. 😄

Horrible films, but this fact destroys all bullet to the skull negative feats against movie Logan.

And neither of these characters in a jungle setting could get such a shot unless extreme luck is factored in.
The Terminator may have infrared vision. But once Logan runs in he tears em apart. And Logan's claws will rip a Terminator apart.
Logans flesh repair ability ensures he can heal devastating wounds in 2 or 3 secs. Whilst still moving ahead.

😄

KO'ing Logan isn't a one-time incident, Sabertooth did it too and the Terminator is stronger and tougher. And where's the proof the cop somehow managed to hit him right in the same spot? Especially since Origins didn't exist back then thus the filmmaker's original intent was to have Wolverine knocked out by a mere bullet. The fact is a strong blow to the head has been proven to knock out Logan on screen. Twice. Also where's the proof Wolverine can easily slice something as durable as the T-850?
