V-35 Ox vs Carryall(Results)
The result of this match up really depends on personal opinion. Considering the question is which craft YOU would rather ride in.
So, I'll give MY opinion on the matter. Lets see, The V-35 Ox has speed as its main advantage. The Ox doesn't have much armor or as much maneuverability as the Carryall. The Carryall, as I said, has more armor plating than the Ox and more maneuverability due to its design. One also has to take into consideration not only the craft itself, but the Anti Aircraft that it would be up against. The Ox has to go up against SAM Mssiles. Which normally come en masse. The Carryall on the other hand has to go up against the GDI's AA gun. Which is an AA machine gun. Given all this, I would rather ride in a Carryall. Due to the fact that it has better armor, more maneuverability, and its advantages are effective against the AA fire it would go up against.
Until next time.

V-35 Ox vs Carryall

Which transport would you rather be dropped into a hot zone by?
Edit: I suppose I'd better elaborate a bit. Let's say you are a GDI Rifleman or Nod Militiaman. In that case, answer the above question. Thank you. :)

Orc vs Nord(Results)
Well, I figure that I'd better come to a conclusion here.
Situation #1 winner: For this one I figure I'd go with the one with a higher hand-to-hand skill level. Which is the Orc. Though it would still be an awesome fight.
Situation #2 winner: This one is a helluva lot harder to determine. Well, lets see. Orcs are supposedly the finest heavy armor troops in all Cyrodill. I feel like such a nerd right now. That is a plus for the Orcs. However, since the battle is taking place in the mountains(snowy mountains if I didn't make that clear), that could be a problem for the Orcs. Even though they are just as suited to snow and mountain terrain as the Nords. Though, since the Orcs ARE suited to that terrain, they would probably be more effective than other heavy armored warriors. As far as weapons, the Orcs will be devastating. With their many powerful weapons. Warhammers and Battleaxes and Waraxes and so on. The Orcs, I assume, would be as good as any on horseback and with archers. Nothing special. Same goes for the Nords. Though, in my opinion, the Nords would be a little bit better as archers. As far as armored warriors, the Nords are more wild barbarians than warriors. But they still have professional warriors. Just not as much as the Orcs. The Nords are known to use primarily light armor. Usually Fur or Chainmail. Or leather. The Nords are like Vikings. Using axes, swords, etc. The Nords, aside from their size, are your usual barbarians. I would think that the Orcs would be a bit better as battle tacticians than the Nords as well. My final verdict is that I think the Orcish army would be the victor of this battle.
Situation #3 winner: One on one would be different than army vs army. Lets analyze the combatants, shall we.
Orc: +10 Endurance, +5 Strength, -5 Speed, -5 Agility, +10 Block, +10 Blunt, +10 Heavy Armor, Also they have the Berserk power.
Nord: +10 Strength, +10 Endurance, +10 Blade, +5 Block. By the way, I'm only listing the attribute/skills that apply to this fight.
Orcish armor: "Based on High Elven designs, Orcish armor is an ornate but remarkably light steel plate worn over cloth padding. Light and comfortable in contrast to other steel plate designs," "This is the highest class of heavy armor that shops will normally sell."-Obliviowiki, Orcish Armor.
Nord's Fur Armor: "Fur armor is made from the fur of animals. It provides the weakest protection against enemy attacks, but it's the least heavy of all the armors."-Obliviowiki, Fur Armor
As far as weapons, the Nord's Battleaxe does more damage, the Orc's warhammer has slightly more reach, and the Nord's axe is slightly faster I think.
All in all. I think that the Orc is slightly more likely to win this fight than the Nord. Like, on a 60/40 to 55/45. As you can see it is actually quite close.
That's all for now. Catcha later!

Orc vs Nord
Orc: http://www.uesp.net/wiki/Oblivion:Orc
Nord: http://www.uesp.net/wiki/Oblivion:Nord
I recently got Oblivion so I've been wanting to do an Oblivion themed versus for a while now. Now to have the two "big boys" of Oblivion fight it out.
Situation #1: One Orc vs one Nord in unarmed hand to hand combat. Brutal! This fight takes place in an Arena.
Situation #2: An army vs army scenario. The Orc army wearing orcish armor of course. And wielding primarily war hammers, axes, some swords, maces, etc. You know, orc weapons. And the Nord army wearing stuff like fur, leather, chain mail, etc. Whatever Nords like to wear into battle. And I think the Nords should be wielding primarily axes, swords(more than the orcs), hammers(not as much as the orcs), etc. Both sides have archers as well. They also have horsemen. Not many though. This battle takes place somewhere in the mountains. As I think that is wear both races are suited to.
Situation #3: Same as sit #1 except that the one orc has orcish armor and an iron warhammer. And the Nord has Fur armor and an iron battle axe.
I think that's it for now. I'll check bach in a couple days to see what you guys have come up with. Chow!

Scorpion Tank vs.... Scorpion Tank?(Results)
Situation #1 winner:
Maneuverability: Draw. The three tread design while odd looking gives the C&C Scorpion great maneuverability for a tank. However, the C&C Tank has to be facing it's opponent due to the fact that it's cannon is fixed forward. Whereas the Halo Tank's gun can rotate 360 degrees.
Firepower: C&C Scorpion. The Halo Scorpion has a 90mm cannon while the C&C tank has a 150mm cannon.
Accuracy: Draw.
Armor: While both are reasonably armored, the C&C Tank has much more armor that the Halo Tank. However, the C&C's armor design, while greatly armoring the front of the tank, leaves the back almost completely exposed. But it's maneuverability makes up for it a little.
Speed: Draw.
Winner: This is a tough one to call but, I'd have to say that the... C&C Scorpion Tank takes this. Unless the Halo Scorpion comes up behind the C&C Tank inside the city, then it is a screwed tank. The C&C Tank's armor and maneuverability together give it the win here.
Situation #2 winner: Same. The upgrades for the C&C Scorpion make it all the easier for it to take the win. The only downfall being that the new laser cannon would slightly hinder it's maneuverability.
Until next time, Hasta La Vista Baby!
