3000 years later: who would win a cyborg self replicating marine unit or the us and china armies combined in 2025

What if a Roman legion went cave diving in Nutty Putty cave and got stuck?
@Trobby888
Some things I'd like to add: 1. Close combat may not necessarily be a major disadvantage provided that the marines exercise the 20 foot rule. 2. There's no reason why marines would need to seige or raid an entire walled city to get their supplies. These have to come from somewhere outside the city, such as the farms. So, the marine's best strategy would be to raid the supply routes and less armed travelling civilians; Basically, be bandits. Furthermore, smart marines would use conventional knives, swords and bows to rob their victims and save the guns and bullets for bigger targets such as the legions. 3. 2:04, the Romans having a food ration advantage is only true if they fought near or in the cities. If they were to fight somewhere remote and wooded, then transporting the food rations needed to keep 5000 romans legions fed would be quite the trouble and make them really slow. If the marines do their reconnaissance and see this, they could easily reposition themselves and play hide and seek until the legions deplete their rations. If the legions request a resupply caravan, well the marines now have their opportunity to play the bandit.

You forget a Marine can survive off a crayon for a week

whod win a modern cave diver or a caveman

This was so much fun to watch and listen to! Thank you!

That's what i was thinking today thanks

Note on ammo, standard load out is 7 30-round mags so 210 rounds per soldier carrying an m4. Add in the extra ammo for the SAWs and sidearms and everything else they’ll be carrying(not to forget they’ll likely have more mags), soldiers will likely be running low on ammo by the end, but if they were aware they needed to make every shot count and knew they had 5000 romans to get through then I don’t think they’d have much issue.

0:26 the Spanish didn’t do this on their own, they had native allies who bolstered their numbers.

Soldier: Who would win? You or Roman's? Marine platoons: If the Roman's adopt a new strategy then we might have a little trouble Soldier: But would you lose? Marine Platoon: Nah We'd win
@joshuaford9714
I like how you covered all scenarios, even pedantic ones like the time travel paradox. I respect that level of attention to detail.
@magictooth2
Fun fact: Ancient wars are nothing like the movies where they charge blindly into each other. That's just for entertainment ^^
@abdullahrizwan592
1:02. For any people wondering, this isn't an impossible scenario to imagine (the Romans do not fear guns). The Zulus are a good example of a primitively armed force defeating a better armed (but much smaller force).
@Wallyworld30
This happen in real life in 1879! The 5000 Zulu warriors vs 100 Brits armed only with Single Shot Martini-Henry rifles. The 100 Brits won and they made an amazing movie out of it in 1964. Starring a 31yr old Michael Caine from The Dark Knight/The Prestige.
