Have you ever watched that DOW2 Trailer? How it should've gone:

The Astartes already saw and killed the ranger at the beginning

The Sergent and two regular marines have already killed the Banshees with a few bolter rounds, the Farseer does kill a few but is destroyed entirely. The Lictor atatcks the Astartes and kills 1/2 but is then decimated by 4/5 bolter rounds... Its WH40K it is inconsistent, in some of the fluff we see standard Spacemarines killed by a normal pointy stick by a normal mutant...
