Like lets say hypothetically that 100 Sardaukar fighters armed with their bladed weapons and personal shields were to go against 200 Krieg grenadiers with full entrenching gear, melta bombs, krak grenades, heavy stubbers (because its an easy win for Krieg if they had lasguns since lasers make Dune shields into mini nukes), gas grenades, and bayonets.
Both sides fight in the ruins of ww2 Stalingrad, which elite bloodthirsty fighting force gets owned?
If they are entrenched it seems like Krieg would win, you typically need a significant numerical advantage to go against a well defended and fortified position.
Unless the shields are just magic bs and dont ever get penetrated despite whats thrown at them.
