OK, let's start at the beginning of Ep. IV. The Colonial Marines are defending the Tantive IV. The MI must breach the hull and enter the Tantive IV, taking it over. Who wins this firefight?

Mind you that CM rifles>>>>MI rifles. Mind you that the CM have flamethrowers. Mind you that the CM have Sentry guns. And grenade launchers.

Mind you, if the MI tries to duplicate the Stormtroopers taking the Tantive IV, they get horribly buttraped.

Johnny Rico and his Roughnecks > all that

We saw CM's shit themselves when facing some human-sized xenos, MI face down giant bugs by comparison without flinching.

This sounds like the beginning of a great comedy.

Lol no. Yes, Rico was a badass, but one badass does not win the day here. Vasquez>>>>Rico.

Without flinching? You kidding me? They were freaking out, running all over the place.

Afraid to compare rifles? I would be too if I were you.

CM>>>MI.

LoL, yes. One badass has saved the day many a time and this is no different. Where the **** where you during the 80-90's action flicks deluge? Probably watching Dallas, what a pansy.

That was BEFORE Rico took control. J. Rico acts as a group power-up, giving those around him a: +3 Aim +7 Fortitude +15 save against Fear

Why would I be afraid to compare rifles? Both have the ability to kill a human.

Only in your wetness dreams, pal.

Against bugs. Fighting a human with a rifle shooting back is apples and oranges.

Vasquez>>>>>Rico. accept it.

Dodge.

Reality.

Of course the counter is: "Against xenos. Fighting a human with a rifle shooting back is apples and oranges."

LoL, no. Vasquez didn't jump on the back of a mega-beetle and singlehandedly take it out. Rico is levels beyond any CM. Rico would have solo'd LV-426 with contemptuous ease.

Saying I have no problem comparing isn't a dodge, you nit.

Ricoality > you/this thread

First things first, let's compare their rifles.

The M41A Pulse is overall better than the Morita. But both have the ability to shred a human with a couple rounds and the Morita does come standard with a shotgun attachment, which would be useless in the close quarters of ship corridor combat.

Consensus: The slight rifle advantage the CM have won't overcome the Rico-Factor

#boomkilleditagain

Lol, slight rifle advantage? The pulse rifle is superior in every way. Small arms win the day here. The fact that the pulse rifle has a pump action noob tube means many shredded MI troopers.

So, now that we have established that the pulse rifle>Morita rifle, let's move on to secondary weapons.

Yes, slight.

Slight? Lawlz K.

Now, secondary weapons.

Yeah, slight.

But you've made the MVF classic blunder, you've entered a Vs match without being intimately knowledgeable of both combatants. "Starship Troopers" consist of 3 films, 4 if we count the 4th which is animated.

I'll let that sink in first.

That's a comparative of weapons fire? Really?

The Morita Assault rifle uses 7.62x51mm ammunition (.308 caliber) at a 75 round capacity, at semi-auto, or full auto mode. The standard add-on is the 8 gauge 3.5" 12 round semi-automatic shotgun.

Compared to the 10×24mm Caseless explosive tipped AP rounds of the M41A Pulse Rifle with a 99 round magazine. Comes standard with the U1 Grenade Launcher that fires 30×71mm grenades at 4 rounds capacity.

Both rifles come in various models and can support various attachments.

Comparatively speaking, I believe that the M41A Pulse Rifle is actually considerably superior of the two Main Assault Rifles. It supports superior ammunition, weight and size are also much less of a problem, higher magazine capacity, and in terms of the current trend of the debate, within the Tantve IV, I would actually put money on the guys packing the explosive tipped AP rounds and grenade launchers, even though the Morita's shotguns are usually the go-to guns for corridor clearance, the U1 can eliminate clusters of troops (it was demolishing groups of Xenos)

Got a live one here.

The Morita III as seen in the 3rd film "Starship Troopers: Marauder" is basically a clone on the M4A1 Pulse. They straight up shoplifted the specs off of Aliens, from the 99 round clip to the under-slung grenade-launcher. While the the rounds aren't explosive, they're still massive kinetic beast that an punch through two inches of Titanium, which is enough to shred a human. Go Team Rico!

...Ok, since when are we talking Mk.III Moritas? The stats I gave were for the standard issue Mk.I

I would have loved some goddamn context in these discussions, because I never saw the Mk.III referenced anywhere before now.

Ok, the stats for the Mk.III are as follows...

Spec of Morita III
â—¾ Operation = Rotating breech electronic pulse action
â—¾ Caliber = 10mm x 50 caseless
â—¾ Cyclic = 900rpm
â—¾ Capacity = 95 - 99 rds
â—¾ Max Range = 1500m.

Grenade Launcher
â—¾ Operation = Gas operated, electronic primed
â—¾ Caliber = 30mm x 71 grenade
â—¾ Cyclic = 15 rpm
â—¾ Capacity = 4 x 1 rds
â—¾ Max Range = 180m.

It's closer to the M41A Pulse Rifle, much closer, but not enough, for it lacks the versatility that the M41A Pulse Rifle has. The customisability of the Pulse Rifle means that the Morita can still be outdone.

Actually looking though, the Morita's rounds are a little larger, but as you said, they lack the explosive tips, meaning that pack a heavier impact, but they lack the blast damage that the Pulse rounds have.

Nah, they're practically the same since ST3 shop-lifted the specs from Aliens. Straight up stole that shit and didn't even try to hide it

Who really cares about the explosive tip when a single Morita sound can still shred a human due to the massive kinetic force it has. Main guns, it's practically a wash

Well aware of all the films, I am talking live action MI here. Because if we include all media, dude....don't go there.

Grenade launcher, dude. Flamethrowers, dude. Dude.....DUDE.....Sentry guns....... 🙂 Add on that the MI consists of clueless 19 year olds, add on that the CM are grizzled veterans, and yeah.....

Pulse rifle>>>MI.

CM>>>>MI. Deal with it.

Why I said "if we inlcude", don't think we should include animated here

Check. Check. Check. Dude dude dude. M11 Barbar power-armor, dude. Powah-Arr-Moore. Sentry Guns would be useless here, J. Rico would forward flip over them

Those "clueless" MI troopers stand firm against bugs that would make xenos shit themselves. Not to mention that those "grizzled veterans" CM lost control and broke formation like a bunch of untrained recruits when they first matched up with xenos and tried to run away

Morita III just about equal to the M4A1 Pulse

Rico and crew utterly clean house here

Even Hudson knows it

Lol, OK, starting a thread.

You must enjoy getting mauled 🙂
