Duels: Cylons vs Terminators

The battle of machines begins round 2. Cylon's, from the many incarnations of Battlestar Galactica, are pitted against the infamous Terminator's of the...well, Terminator films. The duel is set, now who shall win.

Terminator's are a force to be reckoned with. Besides destroying the majority of the human race with Judgement Day, Terminator's are gun-weilding, time-traveling killing machines whose goal is to wipe out remaining humans by killing the leader of the resistence, John Connor. Their numbers consist mostly of regular machine sentries (capable of withstanding numerous assaults), which are sometimes covered in flesh. There is also a liquid metal line of terminator. They also equip flying gunships and other mobile units, including ground forces. They are an army, and a hell of a one at that.

Then there are Cylon's. Numerous generations of Cylon's have been built over a staggering number of years (they've been around a couple thousand years), always improving upon former models. Now, the Cylon army consists of Centurian models, which are streamlined, machine units with weaponry built into their bodies. There are also, like the terminator's, a flesh covered unit that is less powerful than other Cylon's, or terminator's for that matter. But the flesh covered models are smart, using their brains to outwit the enemy. Plus, when one of their numbers are killed, then they resurrect in a ship set away from the fighting. They too have destroyed most of the human race with nuclear weapons, and with amazing space-jumping capabilities, the Cylon's also have the Raiders, which are their fast flying gunships.

So who wins. Terminator's might seem the obvious choice (or not), but I give this one to the Cylon's. Their number is almost infinite, and with so much technology and cunning on their side, the dumb-yet-powerful terminator's have little chance. Chalk one up for the Cylon's.

Winner: Cylon's
