I'll make one:
----
A team of 6 SPARTAN-IIIs with MJOLNIR armor and an AR and Pistol each find themselves cut off from everyone on the outside and stranded in space. The ship is home to a small hive of Xenomorphs led by a Queen. I would like to point out that Xenomorphs are very dense, and very friggen hard to kill. You can shoot off their limbs and they will keep pressing, meaning they have incredible physical and athletic abilities, they are also quite large, an average male standing at around 8' and weighing anywhere from 300-400 pounds of nigh-impenetrable exoskeleton (the only reason the M41A Pulse Rifle's rounds killed them so easily is because they were explosive-tipped), and are very fast learners. They can remain nearly undetected and are roughly 12 times the strength of a normal human being (Spartans are roughly 6 or 7 as a quick fact)
By best bet is by the sixth hour the Xenomorphs had already picked off the Spartans down to the final member.
Jesus Christ. does everyone have to make every other universe so overpowered? You act as if we're fighting Praetorians here. That would NOT be the case in what is described as a Small Hive. Also I thought this was on Sword Base not a spaceship.
Noting the staff of the building, I would suggest 5 dozen Drones maybe a dozen runners (can you imagine a Moa incubated xenomorph?!) a Queen and her Guard; maybe a half dozen Enhanced Drones.
Also, let us assume the Spartan III are members of a team similar to Noble Team. That means specialized MJOLNIR variants and varying weapon proficiencies also equipped with varying Nightvision VISR and tactical light packages.
Spartans can lift three times their weight unarmored, which is about 700 pounds give or take. Their armor increases this by a factor of five, which would be 3,500 pounds or around that, that equals to around a ton and a half. Aliens have been known to pry thick metal doors off of armored personnel carriers with little effort which would easily weigh a ton or more, and slice through power armor like butter. Not to mention, if you read the books it covers almost all of these instances, they have been known to take a shotgun to the face point-blank and keep attacking.
Aliens are brutal, yo.
Fine,how about this:
-Master Chiefs Mark V survived a burst from 50 mm cannons from an aerial craft.
-They can lift warthogs which weight around 3 ton
-Ch!ef smashed into a blast door like nothing in the Halo 4 teaser like nothing.
-Which power armor did they sliced through?Marine armor?An armor on par with Spartans?
In Aliens: Genesis and Alien Warrior ran full speed into the side of an APC full-throttle and almost toppled it, I'd say that's pretty much neck-in-neck with a SPARTAN in full armor, imagine how badly one would lose if he were unarmored.
In Aliens: Berserkers, the title characters, Berserkers, are special ops forces that wear power armor that allows them the strength and speed equivalent to that of an Alien Warrior, and they easily tore through that and tore the operator's head off.
I would have to say in hand to hand combat SPARTANS pale miserably. And even if you give them a gun, Xenomorphs still possess superior numbers, enough to overwhelm the Spartans.
In case you haven't noticed, almost every time Marines encounter Xenomorphs in the Alien films, they are always killed down to the last two or three people, some of the time, the rest of the time they just all die. In Halo the Marines almost always come out of a Covenant engagement with half of their squad alive most of the time.
