I mean if i saw a guy build a fusion reactor from scratch without any plans or actual factory new materials i'd trust em
Then a thought thingamajig: a chainsword would never go through, the teeth just blunting against it
A powersword might be a problem cuz if i remember correctly hit the shield with an energy thing and you get one mighty big boom
So it can be a hazmat zuit when worn with own oxygen supply. Neat
Do the shields stop biological weaponry? Cuz the astartes would have a leg up with their hermetically sealed armor
Astartes can be taken down with just lasguns, like against out modern military 10 astartes would be cut down in short order
They are largely the same but there are some key differences in teh chaos gods of both universes
Like slaanesh is imprisoned in aos
A chapters pdf is themselves and serfs, nothing more
The ultramarines are the big exception yes. They also run a mini empire, the same thing the badab wars started over
Both techniques are possible, the latter is just less cleanup after
Chapter homeworlds don't have pdf, astartes aren't allowed to command guard regiments
Also if you want big astartes tanks horus heresy has some in plastic now. Kratos tank is chonky
Nope, simply not designed for em. Can't fit
Retrofitting them so they can fit would be waaay more expensive then just getting like an astreus
I mean the "democracy" of super earth ain't really democracy lol
No they aren't lol. The necron race as a whole views all other races as foul vermin to be exterminated or herded for other uses. Only very few necrons don't have that opinion
And tau are still openly racist lol. any race that joins em is basically a second class citizen
Even acts not in their name find their way to the gods. There was a really good bit in the arks of omen about what feeds khorne
Cuz all those sacrifices are already in the name of other beings
It has also occurred that two hivefleets will fight each other over particular planets rich in biomass
