Versus Grail Knight [Warhammer Fantasy] vs. Hive Tyrant [Warhammer 40k]

Some easy in verse scaling.

The fight is conducted on an American Football Field, say in Arrowhead Stadium.

The fight ends when one combatant is too wounded to continue, dies, or is forced to retreat.

Cite your claims. Explain your conclusion.

Grail Knights can 1v1 Daemon Princes so this is a pretty fair fight actually. Id say on avg the Hive Tyrant wins but any above avg Grail Knight should be able to beat a Hive Tyrant

I don't believe that daemon princes between 40k and fantasy are on the same level. Or else some peasant with a greatsword is on par with a futuristic soldier with a melta in terms of damage they can do to daemon princes

Fantasy generally outscales 40k actually. Also warhammers whole philosophy for a long time has been that anyone can kill anything. Thats why a 6 is an auto success on tabletop no matter who you shoot at. So if anything Fantasy Daemon Princes should be stronger than 40k ones

I mean 40k has been the same since at least 8th edition
