Battle An unarmed Captain America (MCU) replaces Robb Stark at the Red Wedding - can he fight his way out?

Cap doesn't have his shield or suit, and he doesn't know that the betrayal is coming. The Freys are not aware of his upgraded abilities.

Can Cap fight his way out? Bonus points if he can keep Catelyn and Robb's wife safe. Double bonus points if he can kill Walder Frey and Roose Bolton.

If someone's strong enough to stop a helicopter taking off, I don't think they'd need much skill for any weapon they wield to be used effectively.

In one of the 40k rpgs scaled for "normal" humans you could also play a space marine and the way strength worked you could just throw stuff at people to kill them. I assume when cap chucks a tankard at your head, you will not have s fun time either

I mean he throws his shield at things all the time. It's not a stretch to suggest he could do the same with a medieval shield.

Cap fights his way out of the castle 0 difficulty. But his loved ones are still all dying, there are crossbowmen around the room, he can't shield against them all. All the Freys including Walder are dying.

But can Cap may struggle to escape to freedom outside the castle. There's an entire army of Frey's and Bolton's that have just killed all the Starks. He might struggle there.

If Cap is just concerned about himself, he can absolutely just dive in the river.
