just an imperial stormtrooper sharing his opinion as he is caught in between a guy who can't hit the broadest side of a broad sided barn in a town of broad barns and a space cowboy who was DRAFTED in a marines corps that's motto is "doing less with more"

Actually, the War Pigs are mercs. So they are experienced killers.

Okay. I've never heard of that, but the official War Pigs are the Marine Mercs in SC2:WoL.
I think, I might not be fully right.

Dog of War in the grim, dark future. Good story.

This is my Lore Nerd pointing out a few key arguments:

The movies and games really don't do my Homeboys in White and Terran Marines justice.
George Lucas is obviously a Rebel propaganda publisher. Stormtroopers are actually elite marksmen suited in cutting edge anti-shrapnel armor; won't stop a baster and definitely not a lightsaber, but ewoks shouldn't even be able to touch these guys. The hijacked AT-ST is the only feasible explanation for the defeat at Endor.
Terran Marines only appear weak because they face enemies that would make Imperium soldiers' heads explode in fear. Honestly would rather fight a Chaos Daemon than a Protoss Archon.

Sorry, I'm finished. Please continue.

I agree with you too on everything but the last point. Terran Marines are a mockery of the true Space Marines of the Imperium of Man. The Terrans are at best somewhere around elite Imperial Guard units, like Kasrkins and such, or Space Marine Scouts. And IDK much about the Protoss Archons, but I doubt they can use the Warp as some of the Chaos Demons.

In terms of their respective universe mechanics I would rate the three to be somewhere around the same level, with each unit having their strengths and weaknesses that the others don't have.

what he meant is pound for pound and terran marine is better than imperial stormies and gaurds but the imperium has a hell lot more pounds.(the are not space marines but they do come cloe in terms of equipment... usually)

i gotta agree with you about the stormtroopers though a bunch cavemen teddy bears shouldn't be able to beat an army like that with bows and rocks and yeah lore-wise they're supposed to be an elite force

not so much about terran marines i'd actually say it's the other way around when it comes to heads exploding in fear. i always saw zergs as pups compared to tyranids and i haven't seen any danger in starcraft that warhammer hasn't multiplied by ten
plus i just don't like starcraft's terrans as a people

so oh well :shrug:

thanks for stopping by though this is quite an old drawing :D

star wars storm troopers are fail with their disaiming on 5 metres range and their plastic armour and the also get pwned by little fluffy bears that throw stones.
