Boba Fett vs. Master Chief

jaeger115 · Post by **jaeger115** » 2003-01-24 10:48pm

This is an offshoot of the IG-88 vs. Master Chief poll. Remember, all canon info on the MC comes from the book, not the game.

Umm...... where are they fighting?

Boba Fett busts his chops in the Slave-1.

Most likely Fett. He's smart enough to tag the Master Cheif. Mind you the place they fight and what info they have will make a big difference.

Considering that you just said "the place they fight and what info they have will make a big difference." you should probably take back the "Most likely Fett part" since you basically said right after it that they both have an almost equal chance of winning.

No, not really. Fett will still hold most of the advantages, the setting will just shift the odds a little. Like I said, Master Cheif could win but Fett is smarter, cagier, and has been weapons.

All right, there are three scenarios.

1) On Corusant.

2) In the Jundland Wastes

3) On Endor

Boba Fett has better weapons and a rocketpack, but the Master Chief seems to have heavier armor (based on the book) and has a cloaking device.

Fight!

Smarter? The Chief is a military genius..Trained since birth in military tactics. There is very little chance that Fett can win this one. Cagier? This is the man who has been surviving against the Covenant for ten years in small-forces combat. Geez, guys..It seems around here that whenever a Star Wars character goes up against someone that has made the mistake of not being from Wars, he can't lose. Fett isn't all powerful.

I'd go with Master Chief....also does info from "Fall of Reach" count? I've only heard of some of the book, but apparently MC is pretty uber in it. <<<shrugs shoulders>>>

And Fett's been fighting to stay alive for 40 some years. He's taken down Imperial garrison's singlehandedly. That's badass.

And for all his military training, MC is a grunt. A good one but a grunt none the less. Sure he's survived hard fighting but so has Fett.

There's still the major tech advantage in Fett's favor. He's got heavier weapons aAnd he's likely to see through the Master Cheif's cloak easily. enough.

Hehe, if this was Boba Fett vs. Mjolnir Mark IV (from Marathon, and is basically the MC in different clothes), I'd say Boba is toast. Only because MMIV has survived alien hoards, 3 rampant AIs (2 human made, one alien), humans with fusion pistols and really mean traps.

I'd hand this one to Fett. He has a flamethrower, various sensors, a blaster rifle, a rocket pack, a missile on his back, a dart launcher that may launch explosives (not just the poison darts that Jango used on Zam Wessel), smart wire, the little retractable blade (useless, I know, but...), and maybe even armor comparable to Stormtrooper armor. Stormie armor is damned strong. Never read the book, but judging from the game, Master Chief's main advantage is his super cyborg strength. What weapon would he have? A projectile weapon, I assume? If it's comparable to modern-day projectile weapons, it shouldn't be much of a threat to Boba's armor (assuming it's at least as strong as Stormie armor is).

Flamethrowers? What makes you think that will damage the MC's armor?

A retractable blade? Keep in mind that the MC is far faster than Fett will ever be.

Stromie armor is strong, yes, but we still have to see the MC's Mark V in action.

And none of that matter if he's chewing on a few blaster bolts or a thermal detonator.

In the book, it is observed that the Master Chief can run one klick in 32 seconds and has superhuman reflexes and strength. Have Fett been observed of these traits? Nope.

It's not too hard to lead a target you know. And his reflex aren't C so he'd better be careful.

It's not impossible for him to win but it'll be tough.

This one's a tough call. I'd give it to Fett just because Cortana would be distracting Master Chief by babbling in his ear.

Hey, I didn't say Cortana would be involved.

Why not? She's kinda cute.

Boba Fett · Post by **Boba Fett** » 2003-01-28 05:42am

Do "I" know who I will fighting?

If yes, I'd bring the same shoulder mounted ion cannon that with I disabled IG-88 on Bespin.

If Master Chief is a cyborg the ion effect will be very bad for his health.

But th main question is:

WHO THE FUCK IS GOING TO PAY FOR HIS BOUNTY?

His reflexes are in the millisecond range..That's pretty darn fast

Try gauging Fett's reflexes.

He's still only humanoid. There has never been mention of Fett having cybernetic enhancements.

I'd still give it to Fett in the end.. it's going to be a hell of a fight though. Anyway, had a debate before about MC vs Alias from RFII and Alias would beat him.. hmm.. maybe I should do that here.

So are blaster bolts.
