Re: who would win between england ireland scotland wales vs usa only ground troops allowed
hey have USA actually won a war??
 Quoting: Burgo


yeah we have, but the only one that matters, in terms of this discussion would be the war we won that allows you to speak English instead of German...

Topic at hand: where would the ground battle be fought? Would they be attacking the US mainland or would the US be attacking the island? That factor alone places a huge advantage on one side or the other

I mean, I don't know how well the EU team would do against our military and 160 million armed citizens (most of which have prior military experience or lots of hunting/gun use experience) as well as the diversity of out terrain...on the other hand the US troops would probably suffer great losses if it attacked the island due to lack of good food alone (better pack a lot of MRE's)

the UK would win

the US would have that many friendly fire incidents they would take half their own troops out

this is of course if you could convince the Irish and the Scots to fight with the English not against them

Not really a fair comparison mate.

The Marine Corps is a branch of the military here (Army, Navy and Air Force)

Whereas SAS is a Special Forces Unit of the British Army.

You'd have to look at SAS vs. Marine Recon, Navy Seals, Army Rangers, Army Green Beret, Army Delta Force, etc. which are US Special Forces.

It wouldn't be a pretty battle regardless of which units were involved, but numbers wise I think we have you beat.

Re: who would win between england ireland scotland wales vs usa only ground troops allowed
The Roman empire after easily walking across many countries defeating all in their path arrived in Britain, defaeated the English and then marched north. vastly out numbering the Scots, they were halted in their invasion by a few. Although they tried again and again with all the tactics they had empolyed across their empire to deafeat enemyies, they just could not deafeat the Scots, so they gave up built a huge wall that run right across the country to defend their borders and land from the attacking Scots! I think this may give you an insite into why huge numbers of soldiers dont always win against clever tactics.

Germany almost took over Europe how many country's it take too defeat them? Quality vs Quantity. The British army may have Quality but we can not dismiss that America has been at war for over 10 years and its troops are getting lots of battlefield experience at a cost of 50 million dolor's per insurgent killed.

Wait WHAT! 50 million!

"The Pentagon will not tell the public what it costs to locate, target and kill a single Taliban soldier because the price-tag is so scandalously high that it makes the Taliban appear to be Super-Soldiers. As set out in this article, the estimated cost to kill each Taliban is as high as $100 million, with a conservative estimate being $50 million. A public discussion should be taking place in the United States regarding whether the Taliban have become too expensive an enemy to defeat."

1. Taliban Field Strength: 35,000 troops

2. Taliban Killed Per Year by Coalition forces: 2,000 (best available information)

3. Pentagon Direct Costs for Afghan War for 2010: $100 billion

4. Pentagon Indirect Costs for Afghan War for 2010: $100 billion

Using the fact that 2,000 Taliban are being killed each year and that the Pentagon spends $200 billion per year on the war in Afghanistan, one simply has to divide one number into the other. That calculation reveals that $100 million is being spent to kill each Taliban soldier. In order to be conservative, the author decided to double the number of Taliban being killed each year by U.S. and NATO forces (although the likelihood of such being true is unlikely). This reduces the cost to kill each Taliban to $50 million, which is the title of this article. The final number is outrageously high regardless of how one calculates it.

To put this information another way, using the conservative estimate of $50 million to kill each Taliban:

It costs the American taxpayers $1 billion to kill 20 Taliban

As the U.S. military estimates there to be 35,000 hard-core Taliban and assuming that no reinforcements and replacements will arrive from Pakistan and Iran:

Just killing the existing Taliban would cost $1.75 Trillion

I always think it nice you guys still allow us to continue speaking English... that is so kind and thoughtful..

But I always think it a shame that not one American I've spoken to in the last 30 years knows a single thing about the defences these Isles has built up over the last 2,000 years..

Although in this situation, if the US was to invade that would probably be highly advantageous.. otherwise it's nice to know there are still lambs out there in world ;)
