It will be hard. The Space Marine’s main weapon, a bolter, is like a rocket machinegun. It shoots a projectile that is armour peircing and explodes once past said armour. But it fires like a machine gun. It would be like Samus firing super missles as fast as a power beam. (she only got close to that in SM)

Okay. How much damage will one Bolter shot do to Samus?
Hmmm... In Metroid Fusion, the SA-X (copy of Super Metroid Samus) could do about 3 whole energy tanks of damage with a single super missile. However, please note that this was in the weakest form of the fusion suit (no varia or gravity), which is the weakest suit Samus has, defense wise (though it’s an offensive powerhouse). Samus was also frozen at the time.
So, assuming that this isn’t the fusion suit, and that both varia and gravity are equipped, maybe 40-60 damage per direct hit?
I say Samus can win this one, as her shots are also armor piercing, while being simultaneously frozen, on fire, and electrically charged. And as fast as the power beam. Split into three blasts per shot.

So Samus can dodge Machine-gun speeds?

Yes, though typically it’s more like giant death beams sweeping her general area, 30+ missiles locked on to her, and everything in the room trying to kill her.

Hmmm...I didn’t know monsters in Metroid had missiles. Giant Death Beams, maybe...but they’d need to come from something more...“organic” would be the best term.

Not sure. They didn’t say. Could use strongest form, weakest form, or the fairest form.

It’s usually by robots/cyborgs. Space Pirate drones, Meta-Ridley, Quadraxis, Ghor, that kind of thing. They fire a crapload of missiles at once and lock them onto you.
Samus in Grav suit and the upgrades she ussually has.(Super Missle, Wave Beam, Ect) The Equipment has to at least been in two Metroid games to count. NO PHAZON.

Space Marines are known to dive onto an anti-tank shell and take crippling damage. As long as Samus keeps her distance and can withstand a magazine or two of .75 magnum caliber explosive rounds. Once the eight-foot giant grabs a hold of her, she’s a gonner. He would break her in half like a branch. So I guess we can’t do a Marine with a jump pack either to make it more fair... or would that be cooler?
But we’re not being fair to the Space Marine either. He can take... ok a meltagun is capable of vaporizing a battle tank, maybe that’s a bit too far... maybe a plasma pistol and chainsword? (A plasma weapon as strong as Samus' charged plasma beam.

A melta gun is way too far. Thats like Samus' Hyper beam which made Space pirates explode, kept going, killing everything behind it. She could easily killed anything that the space pirates could throw at her.
Id say either regular Bolt gun or plasma weapon.
He couldn’t break her in half that easily. The shield protecting her easily protected her from impalement by Maridida’s boss and other melee attacks. Id say he could crush her without the shield though.
Samus can move at supersonic speeds with the speed booster though. I doubt the space marine could catch her.
So, your a big WH40k fan right? What do you think of starcraft?
