Reaper :
to end the Spartans vs space marine debate on which is better.
a naked space marine can lift up to 2 to 3 tons, a armored spartan lifts 2 to 5, and a armored space marine lifes 5 to 10, so already in feild of strength. A armored spartan runs 32 to 37 mph, top speed ever recorded was 60, but that was a life or death situation and it tore at the spartans muscles (that spartan being master chief) and armored space marine runs at 50 to 60 mph, so the speed comparison ... isnt there. the Spartans wear titanium plate armor, space marines wear a metal mixture called cerimite that has the same strength as titanium adamantium and crystals, so already they have better armor. and if you want to bring up sheilds, the highest caliber round that the UNSC has for its troops is a 14.5x114mm (the sniper) a pretty uncommon weapon but one powerful enough to break through spartan sheilds with 1 to 2 shots. a space marines most common weapon being the bolter fires a rocket propelled, explosive .75 caliber round bullet, making the standard firearm of a space marine more deadly than the already very deadly halo sniper rifle, making the bolter full capable of tearing through sheilds. While spartans famously pick up covenant guns, plasma guns in Halo burn at 3000°C and their big ships plasma burn at 10000°C thats pretty hot. HOWEVER a plasma PISTOL in warhammer burns at the temperature in ranges of a solar flare to burning as hot as a star, being known to vaporize what they hit, AND THEY CAN GET HOTTER WHEN YOU CHARGE IT TOO.
and the augmentation process between spartans and space marines isnt even comparable as space marines go through so much more to be so much better. The gene seed that space marines get add 19 new organs to a space marine, 21 if its the new primaris space marine.
So there you have it. A space marine is better than a spartan in every sense of the way.
feel free to try to argue with facts.
