The discussion of the Alien series of films and the props used in them is the aim, but if it's got Big Bugs and Big Guns, then they are welcome too!

Win a hand-to-hand, no-weapons brawl against everyone else in their unit?

Based on a thread I made in AvPGalaxy, I thought it'd be amusing to ponder which Sulaco Marine is truly the Ultimate Badass in a fistfight.

Truthfully, while I love Drake to death, I think Wierzbowski would win, simply because he looks like he can fling a grown man across a room and not break a sweat.

In an outright brawl - Wierzbowski... Yeah, he's huge, heavy and does not look out of place nutting Brad Pitt.
By comparison, Vasquez is tiny but has managed to survive in prison and potentially killed someone in the process, so I certainly wouldn't discount her. She also demonstrates potential initiative with her boot-pinning pistol kill, which is always an advantage in a brawl.

In a general hand-to-hand fight - Hicks, perhaps.
The boxing kit in his locker has already been pointed out, whether that's actual boxing, MMA, Muy Thai, or something else.
However, Dietrich and (Frost, I think) did seem to be in some kind of fighty stance as Gorman was arriving.

In truth, though, it's always the quiet ones you have to watch, so I'd be very wary of Mister Crowe...

Crowe comes out of the ceiling like the Isolation Xeno and takes everyone by surprise.

LOL!

I loved how Dietrich and Frost were about to spar when Gorman and co. walked in.

I'm gonna agree and go with Wierzbowski coming out on top as an unarmed victor. Crowe and Drake would definitely make it more interesting for him though.

I'd be leery of a very pissed off Apone though!

Vasquez although small would definitely use the environment to her advantage, such as mess trays or hanging chains (depending where this brawl would take place)

Hudson would probably win in the harsh language department. He seemed to have a bigger pottymouth than Apone.

But he still wouldn't win in a fistfight against 'Ski. I believe Wierzbowski was likely the one who always had to bail Hudson out of fights in bars and clubs.
