Basically what the title says. Canon only. no annoying comments please. “Curbstomp” is crap. don’t use this word—ever. Specs please, use actual math if needed. Because these are all Science-Fiction, Science trumps canon where applicable. Have Fun!
I am mainly looking at ground forces. fleet battles have been done too many times. fight will take place on a neutral planet with oxygen-nitrogen atmosphere. all sides will deploy ALL troops and assets at once. battle covers 100 square miles. terrain may differ significantly. no ship support.
Here are the numbers that I am using:
Clone army size: 1-4 million troopers (per canon)(weapons: mainly particle-based energy+ion[similar])
Covenant army size: 2.5-7.5 billion troops (per canonized speculation)(weapons: mainly plasma-based)
UNSC “army” (marines included): 2 billion troops (per canon @ year 2525)(weapons: mainly chemical-propelled projectile+some railgun and coilgun)
MIC and Rebels size: we don’t know. (combined reddit and spacebattles forums speculation: ~10-20 million)(weapons: chemical projectile and some particle energy)
Systems Alliance: not stated (reddit guesstimate based on population data estimates 35 million)(weapons: mainly coilgun-based and some experimental odds and ends)
GO!
I kinda feel like this battle is determined by who can get more artillery ready in an shorter time to simply blow up the enemy.
But no vehicles?Too only tactic I see the UNSC could use is drowining the enemy in corpses.
And why has the UNSC two billion troops but the Covenant only has 750 million troops?The covenant is way bigger then the UNSC and needs to have way more troops then the UNSC.

sorry, that was a typo: that was supposed to be 7.5 billion. and no, vehicles are fine, just not ships.

I feel that this is weighted towards the UNSC/Covenant because of numbers. let me add the entire separatist droid army to the mix on the clone army and SA side.
So, assuming that the “MIC and Rebels” is referring to the Titanfall universe’s IMC and Militia forces, what exactly does this consist of? If we’re talking about a range of anywhere from 10 mil to 20 mil, how many are standard, run-of-the-mill infantry like Grunts and Spectres? How many are heavier, elite units such as Pilots, Titans, or Reapers?

sorry, meant to say IMC and rebels/militia. Theoretically, it should consist of everything from their universe in whatever numbers happen to be canon. this isn’t a question of me deciding how many there are. By all means, take a guess if you don’t know (I sure as heck don’t, because even the freaking wikia has little to say about titanfall lore)! I would even accept the argument that there are about 1/2 as many titans controlled by pilots as there are foot soldiers (which should be a crap-ton of titans; though maybe that number is quite a lot and likely far beyond what there actually is…). I have played the game’s campaign through a few times but never got into the multiplayer, so I know only so much about the game. please enlighten me where I am coming short here.
I do know halo very well and I know mass effect pretty well, too. some of the other ones though…maybe not so much.

Ah. Okay. That makes things… problematic.
When you say Clone Army, do you mean the Clone Army from Star Wars? If so, Disney or Legends?
