If we assume that Jake was also a 'Catachan' to make the plot the same, then Jake is gonna die. They'll assume something has taken over his mind and consider him a clear and present danger.

The Navi airforce is really just big birds, not true aircraft. It's like shooting skeet for the Catachans, just with MUCH bigger targets. I get the accuracy straight from TT math. They hit 1 out of every two times. The Navi are big enough they might need more than one shot to kill, but maybe...

Hydras are awesome AA b/c they have air-bursting munitions. Lasguns have a burst fire mode. Sure auto-fire could be handy, but not necessary when the 'round' from a Lasgun is just as heavy as that fired by the RDA heavy machine guns. It's like each trooper has a HMG in hand. So what if it's a...

Good point. Though I'm not sure you need them. The flyers are only useful in open space. In that environment, they're screwed by Lasfire. Speed-of-light weaponry they can't dodge that will tear them apart. I bet the Catachans will think they're fortunate when it starts raining cooked chicken...

OP is really just about the 1st movie fight. What the planet brings to the fight is NOT insurmountable. Rhino critters may be pretty tough, but I bet they run from Promethium or just dissolve vs Chem-Cannons. The ground forces Awha brings are screwed. All the flying beasties are the threat in...

DO IT!

Specifically TT, but there are 'flamer' weapons in lore which actually fire pelletized Promethium. Think of a paint ball gun with super pressure firing balls of incandescent, liquid death.

Average is 50% of the range of a Las-Rifle and Bolter Rifle. Up to 90% for some of the better equipped forces. We're talking about combat effective range not theoretical target ranges.

This is bunk in 40K. Flamers have a pretty extensive range across a battlefield, and some are capable of extending that range pretty significantly.

The Catachans request re-supply of promethium as the forest burns and the critters are BBQ'd.
