I'm very well aware that a single Space Marine would crush any Spartan, that we all know, i'm quite curious of how a Space Marine would do to fight a Promethean from Halo, i would probably give this one to the Space Marines do to there incredible power and speed, i mean come on, a space marine has a reaction of nanoseconds, and so many more shit they can do that i don't even need to add up, so who would you pick?

FOR THE EMPEROR!

Well seeing that team crimson beat them easily they dont seem that tough

Don't forget that a single Space Marine can train reck anyone, that was proven when titus fought the army of Daemons and killed there elder daemon, all by himself and he did the impossible.

Bruva, one can never go too nerdy with space marine fanboying.

OT: Promethean gets turned into dust.
Space Marines regularly fight Necrons and at least don't all die. Hell, sometimes they even win!

Prometheans are like... hmm eldar tier enemies. Not a lot of them, kind of stupid and they have weird shitty weapons with the occasional holyfuckthat'sdangerous one.

If you pit a marine against a promethean, promethean is toast.
If you pit a squad of marines against equal or greater numbers of prometheans - prometheans are toast with some casualties for the SM.

Mostly it would come down to what weapons they have can pierce adamantium/ceramite/plasteel Mk8 Aquila armour which would have to be pretty ogrepowered to compete with 40K's grotesquely OP everything.

A good match up though, probably the only thing in Halo that could give them a run for their money short of the forerunners themselves.

emigrate or degenerate. the choice is yours
Which Prometheans we talking about?

Been a while since I looked up the lore but there is actually a difference between Forerunner Prometheans and the robot ones we see in the game. The former can crack planets in half.

I figure they be a good match to start from, but due to the superhuman powers the emperor did to the space marines, those prometheans would be totally fucked.

Yeah no shit. There are two types of Prometheans in Halo. Those in the game and those in the EU. Which one?

Promethean Knight would lose hard.

Warrior-Servant Promethean would stomp more ways than one.

Which type, though? There were the Forerunner Warrior-Servants, which were also the Prometheans, and then those who were created from composed human and forerunner material. The Didact was a promethean.

Prometheans were badass mother fuckers.

No idea why they named the spooky skull robots after them.

The first beings composed were Forerunner Warrior-Servants- who willingly sacrficed biological form to assist the Didact. Hence, why Prometheans- it was only when the Didact needed more that he began composing humans, unwillingly.

the didact even wished to have been oen himself, but notes that he has a resistance to the flood after experimenting on himself to find a cure for the flood.

So... I guess I'm going to have to pick up after your horrendous mistakes on here too?
Prometheans are (in my opinion) the weakest enemies in the series.

H2 legendary enemies could wipe them out in half a second.

Almost forgot about this thread, sorry i didn't responded in time, anyways the prometheans i'm talking about are the ones that the didact controls.

Sorry, hadn't played halo in a long time and i haven't been keeping track from the lore in Halo for a long time, the ones in Halo 4.

Also as far as I can remember Master Chief mostly (maybe only?) fought human prometheans in H4 as it is visible by their digital human skull when they scream.

I wonder if there's a clear difference between human prometheans and promethean prometheans. Are the latter actually seen in-game?

Depends. The appearance of forerunners greatly varies, but it is largely hinted that human and forerunner have the same evolutionary background- one theory being that the precursors created a species that eventually diverged into the two.

However, Halo 4 Terminals indicate ;to me) that those that guard the Cryptum are the Forerunner Prometheans, and hold their duty in a composed form. But all are in artificial form either way, I imagine the skull is decorative. But the ones you fight in Spartan Ops are likely to be human, when considering that Jul 'Mdama has command of Prometheans that were composed at New Phoenix, and then the hints were getting about Spartan Strike.

If you're interested, I could link a couple of topics on HaloArchive about this kind of speculation for you.

Just curious, i know they die in dust but is it possible that they come back to life in multiple ways?

This is kind of answered in the campaign. Cortana notes that the essence left after the death (That a watcher uses to resurrect) is a data packet that contains the information to be used to make a Knight body for the AI. So in a way, yes. The Watchers can build a new body/ teleport one in within a limited timespan (Note, this is only seen on Requiem and it coul be possible this was only available near a Promethean 'factory') before the data is lost.

Promethean 'factory'

There were more then one promethean factory? i thought the composer was the source of making prometheans?

No. Te composer renders a biological form into a digital one, which is then stored on Installation 03 to be put into a Knight body- you can see the composed essences of humans in Halo Escalation. That's what the portal on Mantle's Approach was for- to transport the data to the next stage of production.

I never new that was a factory in 03, thanks, i think thats enough to help my question.

Well remember that 03 itself had a portal to the Composer Forge. It coul be there that the factory was.

I say one on Requiem because it was the Pentagon for the Warrior-Servants, the main HQ. It had the resources to hold off Seige for several years, likely centuries. It isn't too at fetched to think it could make Prometheans, just lies how the array had factories to build Sentinels in times of crisis.

Prometheans were badass mother fuckers.

No idea why they named the spooky skull robots after them.

The first beings composed were Forerunner Warrior-Servants- who willingly sacrficed biological form to assist the Didact. Hence, why Prometheans- it was only when the Didact needed more that he began composing humans, unwillingly.

the didact even wished to have been oen himself, but notes that he has a resistance to the flood after experimenting on himself to find a cure for the flood.
Also as far as I can remember Master Chief mostly (maybe only?) fought human prometheans in H4 as it is visible by their digital human skull when they scream.

I wonder if there's a clear difference between human prometheans and promethean prometheans. Are the latter actually seen in-game?

Depends. The appearance of forerunners greatly varies, but it is largely hinted that human and forerunner have the same evolutionary background- one theory being that the precursors created a species that eventually diverged into the two.

However, Halo 4 Terminals indicate ;to me) that those that guard the Cryptum are the Forerunner Prometheans, and hold their duty in a composed form. But all are in artificial form either way, I imagine the skull is decorative. But the ones you fight in Spartan Ops are likely to be human, when considering that Jul 'Mdama has command of Prometheans that were composed at New Phoenix, and then the hints were getting about Spartan Strike.

If you're interested, I could link a couple of topics on HaloArchive about this kind of speculation for you.

Just curious, i know they die in dust but is it possible that they come back to life in multiple ways?

This is kind of answered in the campaign. Cortana notes that the essence left after the death (That a watcher uses to resurrect) is a data packet that contains the information to be used to make a Knight body for the AI. So in a way, yes. The Watchers can build a new body/ teleport one in within a limited timespan (Note, this is only seen on Requiem and it coul be possible this was only available near a Promethean 'factory') before the data is lost.

Promethean 'factory'

There were more then one promethean factory? i thought the composer was the source of making prometheans?

No. Te composer renders a biological form into a digital one, which is then stored on Installation 03 to be put into a Knight body- you can see the composed essences of humans in Halo Escalation. That's what the portal on Mantle's Approach was for- to transport the data to the next stage of production.

So there could be multiple factories on each installation?

You see a bunch in Halo 2- in the skyboxes on Sacred Icon and Quarantine Zone.
