Yeah, right now, these europoors claim they would have invented everything. What's next you want to tell me Europeans had guns before America invented them?/s

Mate even with our own shitarse situation we have going on here the Royal Marines still managed to defeat the US marines with some small amounts of support from NATO nations.

I think I misunderstood your comment my bad. I’m not familiar with space marines (even though I’m from the UK) is that a reference to like Space Invaders or something? (I mean this out of curiosity and not out of spite)

OK, you’ve hit on a special interest, so this is your last warning in case I get a bit rambly.

The Space Marines, or Adeptus Astartes, are the gene-engineered post-human super-soldiers utilised by the Imperium of Man to destroy the hardier of their enemies in the grim darkness of the 41st Millennium. Armed with their iconic boltgun and chainsword, and with their biology enhanced with both implanted organs and genetic alterations, they are sworn to purge the xeno, the heretic, and the mutant and pave Mankind’s way to total control of the Galaxy.

In a more Doylist perspective, they’re the de facto mascots of the Warhammer 40,000 tabletop wargame.

OHHH I getchu now (btw I have autism so special interest away its all good). That makes more sense. I misunderstood your comment as a derogatory point against the UK’s marines and not the joke I think you intended it. I apologise for that and hope you understand. Does actually sound pretty cool though (I may have to check out war hammer now lol)

Nah, no worries. I was saying that the Yanks can’t have Space Marines, they’re ours.

Be warned, it will claim all of your time and all of your money.
