Sith I think you are confused about this movie scenario.... You do realize you are reading from a movie script and no one else here is correct? We are all talking about what would really happen, not what would happen in movie land.



who is this we?
there are enough posters in this thread that believe the Marines would be successful.

Well I ain't first class
But I ain't white trash
I'm wild and a little crazy too
I have seen a lot of things in my life time.
That is why I walk the line I walk.

We is everyone, this thread has nothing to do with this movie script. The question is if you travelled back in time could the Marine unit take out the Roman Empire. You are taking some mythical movie script which has nothing but fantasy to do with the question. Quit referring to the script. What happens if the Marine unit is transported to ancient Rome in Britain? What if the unit is transported to ancient Spain. North Africa. This movie script has nothing to do with the question aside from some guys mythical this is what could have happened. Remove the movie script from your thought process and stick to the origional question posed.

still to the point there are just as many posters in this thread that agree with me.
that the Marines would whoop some Roman ass.

or do you hate me that much that you cant stand the fact that I have a opinion that is opposite of yours, and the fact that other people agree with me just chaps your hide even more.

I was using facts at first like a MEU deploys with a month worth of supplies, or that inferior races will treat far more advanced races of beings as gods. Those are two real life facts.

Except you dont seem to know what a months worth of supplies means...

Its a fact...based on many many factors which you dont seem to realize so you keep bouncing away from the actual question to this movie script.

Romans will hands down, cause everyone knows that when you time travel you come to the past naked in a "time bubble" and can't bring anything non-biological... duh!!!

Marines win. Just like the Spaniards did over the Incas.
