I'd rather take my chances sneaking with the Storm Troopers than landing directly on the beach. We very well might learn something if we go along with some of the best the Imperium has to offer. Either that or nab some good swag from a 'Trooper that takes a bullet (or las or grenade or axe to the head).

East Beach Direct assaults on fortified positions is going to get us killed hella fast. A weird weapon, though, will have lots of unknowns going for us. Long reloads, vulnerable power sources/operators, etc... We stand a better chance bum-rushing an unknown weapon than a solid fortification. In addition, we just lack any kind of weapon suitable for clearing out defenders. Without flamers of our own or, Emperor willing, a good melta-gun, we'd have to clear the rebels out the really hard way. Let's also not forget there could be more long term benefits for disabling/destroying this unknown weapon. Commendations, equipment rewards, maybe even another day off or two. The Emperor has been with us so far and he shall guide our weapons into the heart of this unknown!

MohawkSatan posted:Another vote for the East Beach. We kill them, take thier strange weapon, kill MORE OF THEM using the weapon, then hand the weapon to the Commissar for destruction. Oh no no no no. Unless it turns out to be something entirely conventional, then no. The last thing we need to do is muck about with alien and/or chaotic weapons. We destroy it and then praise the Emperor.

The Emperor has been with us and shall continue to do so! We shall charge forth and smite the heathen! Hopefully, we'll stand a good chance of passing any fear tests. In addition, the more the heretic uses his powers, the more likely he'll bring the notice of the foul beasts that lurk in the warp. I'm hoping he ends up frying himself.

Blade_of_tyshalle posted:My favourite bit of fluff is that Commissars shoot Guardsmen with the idea that, if the soldiers are more terrified of the man in the hat than they are of the actual enemy, they'll readily throw themselves into the charnel maw of battle just to get away from a certain death at the hands of the Commissar. Made the relevant bits bold. Running and hiding is the LAST thing we do.

Hey, he grew up in a hive right? You don't survive in a hive without learning to get the drop on somebody. Besides, if poo poo really hits the fan, do we want to be stuck in the trenches and foxholes? Hell no! I say we wage Guerilla Warfare. We will stalk them in the dark and slaughter them. We will take what we can use and destroy the rest. Their civilian backers will be raided and their bodies strung up as warnings against the enemies of the Imperium! We will pounce mercilessly on unsuspecting troops, only to fade back into the night before they retaliate. We will strike blows the likes of which the enemy will never forget!

The Emperor will know his own. Massacre them to the last man.
