That might a great "What if" episode for Deadliest Warrior.

Write 'em and see if they'll bite.

Read the book... mobile suit does it all in the Star Ship Troopers story.
They could not duplicate it in the movie ..so the story was changed .

expect Imperial Guardsmen curbstomps movie's Mobile Infantrymen as Guardsmen Lasgun and Flak Armor are better than today's Guns and Bulletproof vest while movie's Mobile Infantrymen are have no better firepower than Today's Military guns and their Bulletproof Vest is just cardboard

Jeez. many don't know their lore.

The Emperor's armies are inexhustible.
Billions of guardsmen fight in his name.

I'd go with the guard.

Going by your original post, did you mean the Imperial Guard as in WH40K? (Warhammer 40K)

That's what it sounds like.

Most are probably going to assume you meant the Imperial Guard from Star Wars.

In WH40K, the Imperials are pretty weak (average grunt)... It's the heavy vehicles that get the job done.

In Starship Troopers, 1 marine vs. 1 bug, and my money's on the bug. (at least taking out the marine with him).

Simply put, in the movie, those guys would have been toast up against those odds.

In the Star Wars Imperial Guard though, you're pretty safe, basically just around the Emperor in red robes. If you mean the average soldier, Stormtrooper...still pretty good, as the Empire is a big fan of overkill, and you'll really outnumber your opponents. The real danger is being a TIE pilot. No shields, no hyperdrive, and the enemy's ships are far better. Of course, you've got numbers on your side.
