Going anywhere near the T-850's melee range is suicide for a Predator, even Wolf. The Terminator was strong and durable enough to hold up that giant blast door with one arm, he'd tear Wolf in half.

So, even off-hand comments and discussion are against the rules now?Geez, no wonder I want to leave....
No one said its against the rules. If that's all it was you could have said so instead of challenging me on what this topic is about.
I only read your last comment, and was responding to that.

Well, did you read the rest of the thread to obtain context behind that comment?

A person who has something worthwhile to contribute to the discussion being talked about?

I have now. There is no context.
Context: My first post in this thread:

With the current weapons layout, the Terminator wins, marginally, if not pointedly.If Wolf had Yautja War gear, rather than Hunting gear, he would win, and in a stomp.
Notice I said in the second paragraph, an off handed comment related to the Wargear. I never said Wolf would win without it.

Time made mention of the Wargear in relation to my comment, not knowing what it was, and thus a discussion started.
If you don't like discussions with regards to the Yautja, regardless of wether or not it is movie only, then why are you trying to go into rules lawyering mode with me in a thread involving a Yautja character?

Not really. Predator is one of my all time favorite characters.
I think you're over doing it.

One of the biggest thread killers, for me, is someone looking over my shoulder and saying "You can't talk about this... ever."
Your original point was that this was specifically about Wolf with nothing but the gear he had in Requiem. I never denied this. You took it as me challenging you because I said that even the words Aliens vs Predator Requiem was never stated. The thread starter even outlined what each person was carrying, irrespective of what they may or may not have used in the movies. That's not a challenge to you, that's what the thread starter had stated.
I made an off handed remark saying that without better gear, the Terminator's superior statistics would literally win the day for him, as literally only 1 weapon Wolf has means anything to a T-850.
So, I think you, in an attempt to try and steer the course of the thread, without reading most of it by your own admission, decided to try and jump on me and earn some sort of point, whatever it may be. I don't appreciate that.

Again, according to whom? Even if they are not, there is no reason to disregard something just because you dislike the source. So, I'll ask you a question. Why do you call them Predators, when nobody in the films ever did?
Because that's the title of the movie, and because it describes them and what they do so well. Yautja just sounds like some fan fiction bullshit. The comics aren't canon as they contradict a lot of what happens in the films, especially the AvP comics.

The term "Predator" is a descriptor, not a name.
I suppose the names like Jiralhanae or Sangheili are also "fanfiction bullshit" as well then...

It's as much a description as it is a name. Just like the Terminator, it fits both characters perfectly.
I don't play Halo so I don't know or care who those characters are.

Ah but we do have Fishburne telling us that his Predator tech "disrupts the heat signature" which is why they couldn't find him.
Idk I just don't see the Terminator being able to dispatch the Wolf at a distance while the Wolf would wreck Arneyat a distance. Up close 850 thrashes but I doubt it would come to that
