i wonder... haven't they been fighting bugs for a long while now? Their guns are severely underpowered for this type of enemy. They'd need anti tank rifles, not anti personnel weaponry. it was excuseable during and just after klendathu when they were not familiar with the bugs. But at this point? It's criminal negligence.
Special weapons are meant for soldiers that survive, and the Mobile Infantry is a meat grinder (and they're proud of it) Not to mention the time and cost of more heavier weaponry, and this was supposed to be a rescue mission, not a survival one, pack light and move fast to get people to safety, AND, they were not expecting bugs to have overrun the ship (to that level).
Narrow corridors are more fit for humans to fight.Fully load few dosen dropships with heavier machine guns and alot of ammo,secure few corridors near the hangar and wait for bugs to come.A starship is limited with space unlike planets...there could not be so many bugs on it so in few hours with this type of combat,starship would be secured.
It's a fake story about giant spiders that fight space marine fascists wearing the armor from Halo, idk if you're supposed to give it this much thought. You should think about what the world would look like if you swallowed a bullet lol
Nah man, in case a ship is filled with bugs, I will go to the bridge and sent it to the nearest sun. Then head to the escape pods, coz there should be some on a spaceship, right?
There’s the problem. That giant bug is in control of the ship. That’s why all power was shut off in the first place, to ensure it can’t fly the ship to Earth. They also won’t nuke the whole thing since they want to capture the big bug for studying. Knowledge is power after all (this is MI’s first ever encounter with a bug of this type)
