A single space marine vs. the Alien franchise.

[Agent23]

Our intrepid Ultrasmurf space marine, let us call him Bob-ius is plucked out of his chapter and made to take the place of every single Aliens franchise movie protagonist.

In scenario one, he gets no gear aside for his various implants.

In scenario two, he gets his bolter, battle armor, and all the other standard equipment.

Fight.

Scenario 2 he wins for sure Spacemarines kill dozens to hundreds ofTyrnairs in spacehulks.

So I'm not completely up on recent Aliens stuff but don't the protagonists usually win already? I can't see why "Ripley, except now 8 feet tall, has years, possibly centuries of combat experience against stuff worse than an Alien, and can bench press a schoolbus" is going to be any less effective than "Petite woman who drives a space-truck" Ripley.

The characters have plot armor, random replacements so not.

Only one xenomorph in Alien and Aliens 3. Those should be easy. Aliens should be handable as well. Still have the Colonial Marines. Only major issue is with Ripley out of the picture s bolter round could explode the whole place since she brought up that issue. But even so... Alien Hive is destroyed so technically a win in the Space Marines mind lol.

Alien Resurrection had less aliens then Aliens so it should be easily handled with standard Space Marine kit and the other people present.

Xenomorphs are discount Tyranids. An Adeptus Astarte would cut through them like a knife through butter.
