Samus Vs Space Marine
October 27, 2008 by admin
Here comes a match in which both combatants have some awesome firepower. All things being considered, I think the edge in a one-to-one engagement goes to Samus, but if it was against a few Space Marines, the outcome could be very different.
What do you think?


Hmm, the Chozo vs. The might of the Adeptus Mechanicus….
Now this is a much fairer fight than MC vs. a SM. However with the massive amounts of pure endurance and firepower a SM has, I think he would prevail in the end, but I would definitely pay to watch this fight.
samus has agility on her side so she might just win.
idk,would phazon have any effect?
Well Samus is faster then a Space Marine, with full energy tanks is far more durable and can bring far more firepower to bare then a Space Marine can. I don’t think there’s any chance a poor old Space Marine will be able to defeat the legendary bounty hunter. Maybe a dready could.
@ marche, yeh im pretty sure phazon based attacks would effect the Space Marine
I don’t really know, I’m just a huge fan of 40K, I’m probably just being biased because SMs look are so badass and I personally despise Samus….
Now a more heroic SM, like one of the Primarchs or a Chapter Master or a Chaplain could easily outclass Samus, and with their equipment have practically all her weapons nullified and useless. But a basic SM is much less capable, although it would still be an epic fight.
I have to agree with you Alpha. Space Marines are far more badass then Samus, and the fact that they’re semi-grounded in reality makes them far more awesome then Samus (whose suit makes no sense what so ever).
I think a Primarch would slaughter Samus, but she could hold her own against a Chapter Master or a Chaplain
Well, my primary argument for a Chapter Master or Chaplain is the proliferation of things like the Iron Halo and Rosarius among high ranking members of a Chapter (though I doubt many Chaplains have access to such equipment). Since they nullify energy and kinetic based attacks, actually using them to make the shield stronger, and since practically all of Samus’ weaponry is energy based she would be at a major loss.
And yes the Primarchs would kill her by blinking in her general direction, for crying out loud Sanguinius broke the back of a Greater Deamon over his knee with ease (not really but I’m at a loss for words).
Samus is very skilled and agile, but it all depends. Is this her suit with one E-tank, or is it full phazon with 150 heat seeking freeze missiles, and laser cannon. For SM, is it a new recruit with poor armor and just a bolter, or is it a Long Fang Space Wolf with enchanted sword, kraken round equipped bolter, terminator armor, and 500 years of experience behind him? Or is it a Primarch? It is too vague to tell. SMs have amazing strength, agility, and Space Wolves have keen animal senses, and beast rage as well. I would say a powerful experienced SM like Ragnar would win. Just your average run o’ the mill SM would easily fall before a heavily upgraded Samus, though.
@Krakenkiller. Usually the character is allowed all their weapons and abilites (which means max and full energy tanks, all weapons etc for Samus).
Well, in 40k fluff Space Marines are near gods. A single marine can lay waste to massive numbers of alien scum. Much as I love Samus, I dont think she stands a chance agains a basic Marine, much less something like a Primarch.
A Sargeant with a Power Fist and a Plasma Pistol would make nice pile of gunk out of the Choso creation…and anything in it.
“A single marine can lay waste to massive numbers of alien scum.”
Um, that’s exactly what Samus does.
“A Sargeant with a Power Fist and a Plasma Pistol would make nice pile of gunk out of the Choso creation…and anything in it.
Charging at Samus with a Power Fist would be a very bad idea for the Space Marine. Because as soon as he gets close enough to use the Power Fist, he will get Screw Attacked. While doing the Screw Attack, Samus obliterates nearly anything which gets in her path.
“much less something like a Primarch.”
Primarch = Samus getting screwed over. I’m not arguing that Samus can beat a Primarch, I’m just saying that anything less then a Brother-Captain would get screwed over by Samus and her superior technology.
Dudes, Space Marines are capable of just as much epic feats as Samus, especially in all the books they’re in, like Iron Snakes or the Ultramarines series. Also, Space Marines can live for centuries, so of course they’d learn a thing or two in terms of destroying a faster, technologically superior foe. Furthermore, the armor of a Space Marine is composed of ceramite, the same material found in the Imperium’s mighty battletanks; so a Space Marine is literally a walking tank…. TANK!!! So how much punishment can Samus’s armor take?? Maybe that’s why it’s not big & mighty like a Space Marine’s, or maybe why it’ll fail during a protracted battle.
And the thing is, an Eldar in the 40k universe still moves way faster than a Space Marine, and the Marines still slaughter them like nothing, so the agility of Samus doesn’t exactly impair a Space Marine’s capabilities to win. In a book I read, Legion, a Space Marine moved faster than a guy could blink- the Space Marine was standing there one moment, then brutally choking him the next, without a hint of initial startup motion- I doubt Samus could do the same.
Also, Samus is infused with alien blood from Chozos, simple alien scum that Space Marines could brush aside easily. On the other hand, the genetic material that gives Space Marines their glorious power is taken directly from the mighty Primarchs or even from the God-Emperor Himself; sure Samus gets a little bit more agility and speed than the average human, but this pales in comparison to the heights of a Space Marine. This leads up to the Space Marine’s obvious technological disadvantage- this is completely offset by his superhuman physiology’s superior speed, strength, agility, and abilities to rapidly regenerate from wounds, resist lethal poisons, wade through temperature extreme areas or heavily irradiated and hazardous areas with just the skin on their backs, develop photographic memory, spit acid, or withstand mortal blows that would kill standard humans (like Samus), plus a little known fact is a biological enhancement that allows them to resist even the vacuum of space with their skin. Because armor is always going to be pierced or fail anyway no matter how advanced it is, eventually it’ll fall to the person inside the armor to carry the day, and that’s where the Space Marine’s superhumanity comes out on top-more than technology or fancy weaponry-in a prolonged fight.
And in firepower, where it would take several shots from Samus’s wave/plasma/ice/whatever beam to kill even normal space pirates or creatures, a Space Marine’s massive 75 caliber high explosive Bolt weaponry can blow chunks of a massive ork’s, tyranid’s, or daemon’s body apart with one shot, while a power weapon rips them apart if they ever get close up; sometimes the Marines just use their hands & teeth! And the Space Marine will find a way to deal with Samus’s screw attack, seeing as it’s upward motion only, so he can just strafe side to side easily.
So after all this ranting, it’s easy to say why Samus would be absolutely slaughtered by a fully armed & armored Space Marine.
FOR THE EMPEROR
A Space Marine will win there is nothing Samus can do…
Ya Space marines pretty much pwn that bitch
the pic is not a sm its a csm if you put that in the fight agest a sm he maigt pwn both in the same fight
Samus has unbelievably superior technology, because Samus has absolutely no basing in reality whatsoever. It pains me to say that a fully-equipped Samus would probably beat a basic Space Marine, but the man of iron would have everyone cheering for him.
I am and always have been a huge fan of 40k in general and Space marines in particular for obvious reasons. A standard space marine is a genetically modified abhuman super powered killing machine, of alien slaying and the demolishing of all things heretical. It has been said that the only thing worse than unleashing space marines on a planet is the exterminatus. Id est, the only thing that will waste a planet and its populace more thouroughly than a couple hundred space marines, if even that many, is the total and utter destruction of all life on the entire world. It is not abnormal for space marines to completely secure the total capitulation of an enemy planet in a little over three hundred hours going the entire time without sleep. Samus has a flahlight for a right arm. A space marine can tear the turret off of a tank, live for several minutes naked in a vacuum, and chew through steel bars in seconds. Samus has that twirly attack thingy. A space marine can tear an ork’s leg off and beat it to death with it. Samus is fast and agile. An eversor assassin glanding combat stimms is faster and more maneuverable by an order of magnitude, and there is an instance of a space marine pouncing on him and fanging him to death. After The space marine survived Samus’ most pwerful attacks, he would use her as a club to kill all of the space pirates a lot faster than she ever could.

Postscript: a aspace marine’s armor and especially shoulder pauldrons are way cooler looking than Samus’
try putting Md giest against a space marine. he might kill one for sure. google md giest.
