Engineer vs. Xenomorph Scene in Prometheus 2?

It's known that the Engineers knew about the Xenomorph / Deacon prior to the events in Prometheus. However, we could potentially see a confrontation between the two. This could happen in [b]Prometheus 2[/b], if Shaw gives birth to another Alien along the way to Paradise, or if an outbreak occurs due to her presence. Who knows. Regardless of the scenario in which this possible battle takes place in, everybody loves a good versus thread. So, the question for today is, what do you think would happen if an Engineer in full bio-suit came face to face with a Xenomorph? Assuming, the Xenomorph did not sneak up behind the Engineer. [center] [img]http://www.poeghostal.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/10/prometheus-chair-suit-engineer-poe-ghostal-review-71.jpg[/img] [/center] Both are incredibly strong. The Engineer seen on LV_223 wasn't even phased after being shot by a rifle and managed to toss 180lb peopls across the span of the Orrey platform with ease. The Alien has incredible bio-mechanical strength as well, able to impale and lift a full grown man clean off the ground with its tail alone. Both are formidable creatures, of equal size. Keep in mind, I am not including the Deacon, because, going by official concept art, the Deacon or [i]Ultramorph[/i] will grow up to be absolutely massive and more powerful than the human-born Xenomorph, making it impossible for an Engineer to hold his own against it. This discussion puts a Xenomorph born from a human (ie. ALIEN) against an Engineer. Side note: I imagine, the Deacon will be to Engineers as Xenomorphs are to Humans in relation. Much more powerful than the Engineer, just like the Xenomorph is to its human hosts. So, leave your creative response below! How do you think an encounter between a Xenomorph and Engineer would play out? Would the Engineer survive? Could his Bio-suit protect him from the Alien's attacks? Have your say below.

The only reason why the xenomorphs were made OP in AVP is because Paul Dumb shit Anderson was in favor of the Xenomorphs, that aside we do not know the full power of the Engineer's technology capability, Since the Engineers created the Xenomorphs i think they would have anti-xeno weapons, and also back to the predator topic Engineers are taller than Predators. Predators tend to be 7 ft tall, Super Predators are 8ft, while engineers are 9 ft. I theorise the Engineers might have a way to control xenomorphs perhaps in the form of a flute, well they used to anyways before they evolved to ignore the engineer's signal. But back to Xeno weapons... In the canonical alien series the only xenomorphs that use their tails was the Queen, becuase the Kane's Son didnt use his tail neither did Cameron's Xenos except for the Queen, the Dogalien didnt use its tail and neither did the Genetic Xenos from Rez. Only from the non-canon AVP did non-queen xenos use their tails

The Alien Xeno did use its Tail... I cant remember what version of Alien but i am pretty sure the Alien used its Tail on Lambert.... only the way it did so, well was kind of off screen and sexual lol

Anyway i did a image before to show how the Engineers was intended and indeed how they actually appeared as compared to David. So i did another one and edit of that image in OP... Now the Xeno stands between 7ft and 8ft tall on average they are about 7.5ft tall... The movies show us they vary to be from 7ft odd to near 8ft. The Alien one was about 7.5ft So i have scaled the Xeno to be 7.5ft in comparison to the average height the Engineer Appeared this was both taken from the Last and Ghost Engineers compared to Human Crew and again we are looking at 7.5ft tall.... when they was intended to be 9-10ft. Now the Larger Engineer in the image bellow shows how big a actual 9.5ft Tall Engineer would be compared to the 7.5ft Xeno... Now based on that, i would say the Engineers would win.... but based on size we actually got in Prometheus then basically the Engineer would only fair a little better than a unarmed Predator and well we know how that ends up.

@BigDave; The Giger Alien in ALIEN did indeed use it's tail, twice infact. During the scene where the alien confronts Lambert, Parker runs at it and it whips round and hits him with its tail. Then, it rapes Lambert with its tail.

The poster was good though!

The predators are 8', and they'd easily beat either an engineer or a xenomorph hand-to-hand. The engineer is tall and strong and smart, but the predator is tough, agile, and skilled. A xenomorph would only barely be able to hurt a predator.

I meant the original xenomorphs never impaled people with its tail, the queen being the only exception

I think it depends on a number of fanctions.

What melee/ranged weapons do the Engineers poses?

How many Engineers?

How many Xenomorphs?

What Xenomorph types are there? (warrior, drone, runner, Queen?)

How resistant are the Engineers to the Xenomorph's Molecular Acid Blood.

Until the movie arrives, we really can't tell the outcome of such a battle, or in a more likely case, a massacre, knowing the killing habbits of the Xenomorphs.
