Definitely possible, but only if the Astartes had no armor or ranged weaponry.


The OP states clearly that there's no Power Armor

The vampires don't have power armour, not the marines.
Marines can't even take off their power armour.

Marine skin is very tough and their bone structure is far too dense. Their immune systems are uber uber advanced and not even a vampire virus would be able to infect them.

The vamps in Underworld don't have anything remotely close to power armor. It's the SM who are without PA in this thread

Re-read OP.
theyre insanely fast and strong. And thats without power armor

This is a description of the vampires not general rules for this match up.
Reading comprehension for the win.

Ah, my bad, just tired after a day that involved almost getting shat on and having my ear bit off.

Space marines win, without power armor they are even worse, because knowing them they would just put on platemail.

I'm going to take my .75 Caliber Exploding automatic rifle with a 100 round mag and wearable tank armor.

What to the Vampires have? Speed? A very bad reaction to sunlight? I can spit acid, am immune to all poisons, and their weapons couldn't begin to scratch my armor.

Let them come. They shall taste my boot and bolter.

Getting crapped on must stink.

Mandorallen turned back toward the insolently sneering baron. 'My Lord,' The great knight said distantly, 'I find thy face apelike and thy form misshapen. Thy beard, moreover, is an offence against decency, resembling more closely the scabrous fur which doth decorate the hinder portion of a mongrel dog than a proper adornment for a human face. Is it possibly that thy mother, seized by some wild lechery, did dally at some time past with a randy goat?' - Mimbrate Knight Protector Mandorallen.

Excerpt from "Seeress of Kell", Book Five of The Malloreon series by David Eddings.

Old people can be a really cruel bunch (this guy wasn't mentally incapacitated either and he did both of those things, anyway, enough about me and my "crappy" day)

Clearly neither would win and we'd end up with some legion of vampire marines. Probably make them red like blood and enjoy art or something. Sanguine Seraphim I guess, something to do with blood and marines being called the angels of death sometimes because that makes them more intimidating.
