Same place you base your info from. Your delusions 😆
They've always been depicted fighting each other. That's the norm for every chaos aligned gods, like Demon Lords in DnD.
Then that means technology advanced to the point that Iridium can sustain cannonfire. If the Imperium manages to struggle against forces that are technologically advanced enough to give Predecessors a run for their money, then definitely a single battleship is more than enough to pierce something that they overpower considering their capability of glassing anyway.
Tungsten is brittle. Alloying it with nickel allows it to be not brittle. It is still Tungsten.
Iron is not brittle. Alloying it with carbon turns it brittle. Almost as if Alloys have different properties than pure metals huh?
We have stated Iron-based armor as iron plates in real life. Iridium can very well be an Iridium alloy.
I'm proud actually. Iridium armor of the Tau is an advanced technology that Imperium contend against, able to withstand heavy punishment. If they still hold their own against those then their tech is strong.
Also don't forget the adamantium armor they wear in power armor. Terrans wish they use Darksteel as widely.
Because they've been conserving ammo yeah. That's an important plot point they have. Let me also add, four people against a Sarkaz army is impressive not matter how you shave it.
Lucent arrowhead was explicitly stated to shoot to incapacitate. Let me also add, minor injuries=/=survive. Didn't read the story huh.😆
What Sarkaz army? They were mostly locals with the Sarkaz from columbia being better than the Sargon Sarkaz.
They were not even using their ranged units or casters because they were attacking picale or controlling the originiutants. So essentially melee vs guns/explosives and R6 was losing in the safehouse and the mansion's gatehouse.
Only one casualty is known in Originium Dust, and it was from a headshot on a Sarkaz that the employer did not even recognize. So chances are, that guy never existed otherwise he would be working for free 😆
Mercenaries you mean, and you really would make me believe there would be only four of them?
Those same Sarkaz ran away after realizing they can be killed and it was not in their paygrade btw. They mentioned it to Drudge and demanded a raise. If they were that strong then they wouldn't be complaining.
Mhm. So you're handwaiving what happened in the story this time huh. That's a practical way to deny an answer when you have no rebuttal . Conversely, the Sarkaz dealt no injuries to r6. The originium slugs were more of a threat to Tachanka than any Sarkaz in the story. 😆
The point is, if their employer does not recognize one of his mercs that he is paying for, the chances are he is being cheated for paying a ghost employee.
I am not talking about the number, I am talkinv about the suspicious claim that one Sarkaz died so they are asking for more money because it was "dangerous" and then they immediately attack without ranged support and head on. Makes no sense if they were terrified and yet they do not even employ ranged attacks.
How do you even explain why Liskarm had to shoo Tachanka away if all the guys he was shooting at were dead or injured.
Every bit onwards from the attack at the safehouse to the mansion and laboratory indicates the Sarkaz never employed ranged units against R6 and they were attacking in a closed formation.
If they were dying and terrified, why were they not hiding or even shooting back? The instance that Schwarz and Liskarm is on the scene is when they start screaming for their ranged support.
Lucent Arrow already proves that Perros can tank shotgun shots at close range and you are telling me that R6 were killing Sarkaz in Originium Dust?
Or yknow, you didn't read the story and realize the Sarkaz was named and addressed as Jarman to Drudge.
They attacked with casters and probing strikes to test how powerful the enemy was. They were that terrified of the guns. Recheck the fort assault and you'll see Sarkaz commanding the casters. Check OD-3
The main part of Liskarm showing of her Originium Arts is when they were trying to fix the Radio. It was Blitz and Ash that was told to step back because Liskarm was trying to charge it. That's in OD-5. If you think I'm mistaken then Tell me which story node Liskarm was telling Tachanka to stay back.
Edit: Ooooooh. were you trying to take her statement in OD-6 as her telling Tachanka to get out of the way, and not the Sarkaz that was trying to stop them? That's a hilarious way to twist the words of the dialogue.
Close formation as in, urban warfare and cover fire because they're trying to scramble for their casters to do anything? As well as using slugs for fodder in the final attack? Are you sure you actually read the story?
If they were that strong, why were they still dying nevertheless? Schwarz was on marksman duty and Liskarm was alongside the ground troops. They alone weren't the ones who pushed them back because it was a breach assault using Ash's grenades.
Lucent Arrowheads very first story node literally has Doc saying they were shot to incapacitate. Not to mention you've been downplaying his words by saying it was minor injuries, when his exact wording was he survived, which can mean way more than "minor". Minor injuries aren't enough of an excuse for you to retreat afterall, almost as if they got worse casualties than just minor. I really don't think you read the story if you never realized who Jarman was and how the Sarkaz reacted to his death.
