DSkillz Posted December 3, 2021 Share Posted December 3, 2021 The combo of the match-up and the terrain got a giggle out of me. You have thus earned your 35th like, UMPIRE. The Fanatics get eviscerated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RiotGear Posted December 5, 2021 Share Posted December 5, 2021 As much as the Foot Clan feels like the obvious answer. I think it's worth noting that as a property going on 50 years old and existing in multiple fictional properties. Star Wars is going to have millions of fan(antic)s from all walks of life with differing skill/power sets/levels and equipment. Even if a small fraction of them can stall the Foot even briefly. Then those less skilled/equiped can dog pile as the Foot is going to be at a serious numbers disadvantage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
C.T. Posted December 5, 2021 Share Posted December 5, 2021 Not sure if that’s a joke or not but pretty sure both sides have an equal, relatively small number of participants, not millions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Where does it say a small number of participants. Honestly small numbers kinda defeat the purpose of cannon fodder. There is nothing in the description to suggest it's not all of any given fodder group. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, true, it doesn’t have to be a small number necessarily but literally all the matches with groups have been with equal numbers on both sides Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

By those rules, if the 300 Spartans were put up against the clone troopers, somebody could personally interpret millions of clones jumping the 300, and just…no, dude. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Like I said I apply it where it makes sense for the groups in question. The main tactic/advantage of some of these groups is numbers. Robbing them of those numbers is not only thematically uninteresting, but also unfair. A relatively smaller group of from the GCPD holding the line against a swarm of Zombies makes sense for both groups. 10 zombies shambling around in a circle while a GCPD sniper team picks them off from an elevated position 1000ft away. Is not a good match and does not allow both groups to use there advantages. I'll admit this is all a bit nebulous, but so are the set ups and groups in question. So it's going to be different group to group, but I think in the name of balance, fairness, and fun there are situations where numbers can and should be applied. You can think different and that's fine. I think a lot of folks here have. They've picked some probably vaguely defined number on both sides and ran with it. And if that is how you want to think about it go for it. I was simply offering an alternative. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I gotta admit, the thought of millions of rabid fanatics converging for a beatdown is kinda hilarious. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
