Zartan's pride and overestimation of his own abilities and his subsequent botching of the Snake-Eyes assassination in Japan directly contributed to the decade long blood vendetta by Snake-Eyes and Storm-Shadow against Cobra, and the two of them, at different times, have become the most persistent thorns in the side of Cobra. To me, that's one heck of a big failure in the grand scheme of things and a big stain on Zartan's reputation as a top-of-the-line merc.

I voted Storm Shadow. I would worry about his "code of honor" at the moment of strike though. Would have to frame the target so SS wanted to kill him. Although it seems highly likely he would run into Snake Eyes or a classic cartoon fight with Spirit.
Zartan would leave a clue as to who did it. His ego would get in the way and he would be braging before he got out of the building. Firefly would be a gamble. His personal safety comes before the mission. Wraith would be a good quick hitter but wouldn't get out without being discovered. How about Zandar? Even if he was discovered nobody would remember. |

I was going to pick Firefly but in the end I went with Storm Shadow because I figured he's the stronger option since he was actually a main villian. Whereas Firefly was a secondary villian. I agree with all points about Firefly's skill set and mental toughness but if he was really all that great he would of been Cobra Commanders main option not Storm Shadow.

Blend in unnoticed surrounded by Joes. Sounds like the mission goes to Zartan.
Sure a ninja like storm shadow can sneak his way in but a key witness has to guarded like crazy and is sure to get spotted. Firefly would work if you need to blow up the whole base! Major Bludd can lead a small army but stealth isn't his thing. The others seem more specialty type mercs. Goe with the Z man. Pluss he works for Grape Soda and Donuts ;) |

Firefly had a history of not finishing his jobs. Yeah he looks cool and all but even in his filecard they mention that.
Zartan on the other hand does finish what he started. But he does brag about it so. Last edited by Dirtbag; 12-23-2009 at 01:13 PM.. |

Now that I think about it Aleph The Night Creeper Leader is the better option.

I clicked on firefly before reading the scenario. I would go with zartan. The ability to blend in and look like whoever would be key. Firefly wouldnt sneak in , he would blow something up as a distraction, blow a hole in some walls, get to the person, kill them and just walk through the rubble. Storm shadow could do it as well but zartan would make it too easy.
My initial reaction was firefly but than I thought he couldnt even kill some old man, he had to have zartan do it... but I like firefly more so I chose him.

For this mission, which relies heavily on infiltration and stealth, I narrorwed my choices down to three: SS, Firefly and Zartan.
Though Firefly is great at silent infiltration and recon, his main specialty is sabotage so I decided to eliminate him for someone with more assassination experience since this is the primary objective. And even though Zartan has conducted assassinations and could easily disguise himself as a means of infiltrating the location, I felt that SS is slightly more skilled at sneaking into an area and escaping quickly so I chose him.
