Warhammer 40K Space Marine 2 Opening Cinematic 4K

[@sentinel501]

A deathwatch tv series has so much potential. You only have to keep track of a small kill team. Each character is unique. Every week there can be a new mission

[@GrayMatter337]

you just know none of the guys in that hypothetical squad are makin it to credits on the final episode lol

1:29 love that the inquisition is immediately told to chill the fuck out considering that their initial strategy in space marine 1 was Exterminatus before being told that wasnt an option

[@AnonD38]

That was a servitor doing a threat assessment/cost-benefit analysis, not the Inquisition being overly dramatic. For the Imperium Exterminatus is always the easiest way of dealing with a threat. So if the planet the enemy is attacking has nothing of value on it, why spend the resources to defend it? Just incinerate the planet and any fool willing to fight for it. Graia was valuable to the Imperium though, so Exterminatus was ruled out. Next they considered orbital bombardment, but that would have caused too much collateral damage to the Titan foundries. So the servitor came to the logical conclusion that the planet needed to be liberated on the ground. A liberation fleet was already under way, but projected to be too slow to reach the planet before the fall of the Titan foundries, which would have doomed the planet. So the only viable option left was to request the help of Astartes.

[@Xingmey]

@@AnonD38 exterminatus is still the last resort and not easily given - even the inquisitor has to defend his actions and decisions with his higher ups... /high lords of terra / robert girlyman in the newest iteration of wh40k

[@AnonD38]

@@Xingmey True, but when there is nothing worth defending on a planet, then Exterminatus is the most cost effective option. The threshold for what constitutes "worth defending" is rather low, so as long as there are people of fighting age on the planet and there isn't like a demon incursion or tyranid swarm on the planet, it should be worth defending already. Not to mention any critical assets that may be planetside like promethium refineries or Adeptus Mechanicus enclaves or something like that.

[@NewbInLife]

@@Xingmey Well don't think they'll be able to do it anyway. Exterminatus requires a ship to park in orbit and conduct the Exterminatus. This requires control of the space above the planet. If the Tyranids are already devouring the planet, then you've lost control of the space above the planet long ago. You're not parking a ship in orbit to conduct Exterminatus when a massive hive fleet is in the way.

I honestly love how this scene actually shows that Tyranids are very clever as the Hive Mind guides them. They invade through the main hatch, realize the opposition is too strong so they open the second hatch and purposefully push Titus out of the dropship, beginning their divide-and-conquer strategy. They managed to separate all the Deathwatch members and finish them off individually.
