They didn't come off the ships with guns blazing. They got along for a time, until the colonists started taking things the natives didn't want them to take, like everything they set their eyes upon.

That's not what I read, I read they came off ar-15s blazing and eagles dropping tanks they picked up off air craft carriers. In 1492 of course.

Grenade launchers full of small pox and malaria.
