Robocop isnt all Robot. Limbs were Replaced but his torso still had, at least in the first one, Organic parts. That is the whole point of being a 'Cyborg'. If you were all machine you would be a robot.But to honestly think that the 300 would bum rush Robocop is ridiculous. They would see one man with no idea what he is. Maybe they understand he has armor on and would go for the face but I dout they would be able to actualyl get to him.
Machine gun, Flamethrower, handgun, etc? Robocop is armed to go against an army here. No way are those shields going to stop bullets when they barley stop arrows.
I say Robocop takes this one.
I won't say "barely stopped arrows". They hid under their shields while hundreds of arrows rained on them... and not one arrow pierced through the shields. Those shields may not be able to stop direct shots from Robocop's gun, but can definitely deflect glancing blows. I'm actually pretty convinced they can stop the bullets at certain distances, but then we'd have to argue about what kinds of rounds the gun is carrying and how high the gun velocity is... so to avoid that I'll just agree that direct shots can go through the shields. Just that from what little knowledge I have of ballistics, I seem to remember arrows having better penetration power than slugs. But what do I know, I don't even remember where I read that.
When Robocop was shooting in the range in the first one a three round burst took the neck off the dummy. Now even if it was paper a normal round would only leave a small hole, not shred the paper. It seems obvious that Robocop wouldnt be using standard rounds. Not to say I know exactly what kind he is using.
As for the Arrows, they did get riddled with arrows and when they stood up their shields hard Arrows stuck all over the shields.

That's probably due to high velocity. A high velocity gun can tear through a target which a low velocity gun only left a hole in even if they both use the same type of rounds. However to penetrate steel, you'll need armor piercing rounds, and I'm not sure if Robocop's gun carry those? It's been a while since I watched the movies, were there any scenes where he shoots through metal? Not cars mind you, but steel sheets or something? Or even concrete. If he has feats like those then yes, he easily gets through the spartan shields.
^Was that towards me? Cos I never implied the Spartans were morons.
They probably form a phalanx at the start as per standard procedure, but after 'x' amount are killed and they realize their bronze shields are useless in stopping bullets, I can see them spreading out.
Though even saying they spread out from the get-go, it's not like Robocop will miss with his targeting computer.
ok so thats the full scenario.
robocop is armed to the teeth in a defensive position with a heavy machine gun aimed at the spartans. no need for a plan just pull trigger. spartans are placed in the line of fire bunched together like retarded cattle. nice. are the spartans allowed legs or are they sawed off?
