4. NO. Do you seriously think that? Seriously? USA pwns easily.

But as with the 6 billion Romans, it all depends on where you let them spawn, with what knowledge and what infrastructure.
Either way, the incredible increase in population wouldn't just be a problem for the others, the US would have to deal with it just as well, it's not like they are in any way self reliant.

Wait...by "classical and medieval age", I didn't mean every single man to ever live...no, just pick on period in time for the classical age and one period in time for the medieval age...
Even if it were every single man, then how do they cross the ocean/make enough ships/supplies? It wasn't until AFTER the medieval age that they developed boats capable of doing that, and they'd still get destroyed by the US Navy.
Notice how I, the "Roman fanboy" am supporting America and you are supporting Rome? you must be a super ultra Roman fanboy...

Medieval times already being one period, what do you mean with "pick one period" then?
Either way, like I said, it is quite silly, and without many additional information hard to judge.
Also, you are still a Rome fanboy, you just got better at hiding it.

Where are you guys getting the idea that Romans had six billion in their side?Or is it just an advantage you all gave the Romans? I'm too lazy to look back.
It's well known that the Roman legions outnumbered the entire population of the planet. They were awesome like that.

By one period I mean one point in time, ie the world in 1230 or 200 ce. Rome loses.

so is the US military stranded in time with just a battalian of ground forces to remotely make this possible?
only way i see the romans winning.
unless the entirety of camp pendleton or some army base is sent back in time then the US has a 99% chance of winning barring some moronic base commander F$@@ing things up ala hitler.
Rome was a bunch of superstitious people. After seeing the capability of just one of the militaries more powerful bombs they would surrender. Two of todays tanks would be enough to run over the competition within hours. They would look at the militaries weaponry and be awestruck. Besides, why would they want to fight america when they could just become citizens and get air conditioning and cable?
I mean, a platoon of special forces soldiers should be more than sufficient to take down an entire Roman unit.
America would air drop mcdonalds into Roman territory and wait for everyone to get fat lol

uhh...,this is Cotton mouth, come in red rider...,come in. Our current sector is Lv426. Area is overrun by hostiles. We've made hot contact. Requesting immediate dust off. When can we expect pick up, repeat; when can we expect pick up...,over.
what if we assume that camp pendleton and its military personnel were transported by advanced human technology as a last ditch effort to safe a remnent of humanity before some advance alien race completely exterminates the human race.
Appearing from a time bubble from their apocalyptic future a handful of future military techs install and activate a temporal field around of camp pendleton, minutes/seconds before the alien attack is begun and pendleton is destroyed by their first initial bombardment. they activate a time shift only to have timed their jump off by a few secs the energy blast and the temporal field interact causing coordinates to become altered and sending camp pendleton into the out skirts of the roman empire.
the blast caused the tech to overload and be destroyed killing all but one tech, realizing instead of sending the base into a remote corner of the united states some 100,000 yrs. he has send them into the height of the roman empire running the risk of horribly altering the time stream. he now has to find the base commander and inform him of the future threat.
1. realizing altering the time stream is far better then complete planetary annihilation he searches for the base commander. their goal is to prepare humanity with future tech and knowledge to advance the world or the military base and their future ancestors sufficiently to fend of the alien invasion.
the problem is the local tribes peasants have started spreading rumors about gods, demon , strange foreigners invading the country.
the roman senate has sent troops, scouts to confirm the reports of the locals.
due to lack of communication negotiations break down and the war begins.
mission of the base is not complete annihilation or even the removal of ceaser they are needed in or order to help spread human advancement to fend off the alien invasion. in order to do that they need to defeat the roman armies.
