One bolt round to the neck or a few to the midriff is enough to put a Hunter out of action. And whats to stop a Space Marine from slicing the spines off with a chainsword (assuming they can even penetrate Power Armour in the first place to make them a threat)?

And Jackals are more feeble than a human. How can they be the equivalent to a Kroot in combat? Plasma rounds also tend to do more damage than bullet rounds to exposed flesh. Ever heard of Covie Incompetence? Also those Spines there you see? Yeah they are covered in Star-ship grade armor, each spine is razor sharp and could slice apart a Marine with ridiculous ease, you must at least have a power weapon to cut them.

Those Jackals? Yeah their feeble, but makes it up with their pure sniping prowess, also how would Kroots deal with Needlers which mind you could bisect a human or completley liquify the poor chap.

Overall nice discussion good sir.
