Neither is meaningfully harder - they pose close to the same test. The widest gap is reads, and it is a single point.

A squad-based Star Wars shooter where commanding your clone team wins battles.
Brothers in Arms: Road to Hill 30 leans Optimization (Practiced Mastery); Star Wars: Republic Commando leans Optimization (Practiced Mastery).
Same score on execution - which means the number cannot separate them. The difference is in what each one asks of you.
Brothers in Arms: Road to Hill 30
Aiming matters but suppression mechanics soften it
Star Wars: Republic Commando
Solid gunplay but squad does much lifting
Brothers in Arms: Road to Hill 30 leans a little harder on reads, though the gap is small.
Brothers in Arms: Road to Hill 30
German AI holds scripted positions
Star Wars: Republic Commando
Droid AI follows fixed behaviours
Same score on variance - which means the number cannot separate them. The difference is in what each one asks of you.
Brothers in Arms: Road to Hill 30
Some shot and AI noise
Star Wars: Republic Commando
Encounters are scripted and repeatable
Star Wars: Republic Commando leans a little harder on optimization, though the gap is small.
Brothers in Arms: Road to Hill 30
Fix-and-flank squad tactics are the core puzzle
Star Wars: Republic Commando
Squad positioning and order timing decide fights
