I'll do this for every weapon except pheropod and gravity gun. I'll also fill in the holes. Anyone who thinks I'm missing an enemy please remind me. Pleas note, said enemy must be destructable by one of the said weapons. Don't suggest Hunter because I've already decided to test them when Ep. 2 comes out.
 
Did you take area damage into account? Headshots do double damage I think.
 
Don't forget the fast zombie torso in episode 1, and why isn't there a number for combine elite and zombie torso? What difficulty level are you doing this at?
 
Presumably Elites and torsos take the same number of crowbar hits as the previous one on the list.
 
I'm testing them all on hard. For every test you can assume I killed them in easiest way possible, I.E. Headshot/direct hit, in other words I killed them with least amount of hits posssible with that weapon.

Edit: There's a FAST zombie torso? I never even noticed.

Edit Again: Didn't quite have time for em but don't worry I'll do all of them.
 
Now that I think of it. I think that Wikipedia has the health value for nearly all weapons and enemies. You could save yourself some time by looking it up and doing some maths.

This makes me want to say owned for some reason, I don't really know why.
 
Every one wants to ruin my fun...... *grumbles incoherently*
 
I just checked Wiki but all it tells is the health of SOME of your enemies and doesn't tell you the damage weapons do and also the RPG hit's some synths take.

Yay! Another excuse!
 
taking down antlion guards on hard with a crowbar was always fun, i even beat hl2 using a crowbar, which is extremely hard. still had to use rpg for gunships and nades in that window part tho...
 
I think you should do APCs and hunter choppers, maybe even see how many seconds it takes to destroy them with the airboat gun.
 
Only time I ever saw one was with the npc_create command, I guess there's just not enough sawblades in episode 1 :(
