Also Shas, severing the head section of the hunter mau not actualy kill it. As they aren't one living being.

And one more thing. Slicing a marine with ease serves no value whatsoever when taking on Power Armour, and remember, although in tabletop they seem not so good Chainswords are absolutely lethal, I think I remember something about diamond/soemthing else tipped blades.

Just some comparisons:

Space Marines are stronger than SPARTANS

Space Marines are likely more skilled (in ranged and CQC) than SPARTANS

Space Marines have MUCH better armour

Space Marines are likely faster, but less agile

Not to mention Space Marines have no fear, and have back up organs

And who's to say the Assault Marine won't just throw a Melta Bomb and watch the hunter burn? Job done.
