That reminds me of a question i had for this thread a while ago:
What would happen if a space marine got hit by a car? How fast would the car have to go to kill him, what if he was in terminator armor?
(I just can't stop picturing that scene from "Hancock" when he stops the train with one hand  )

You guys do realize that if we use nukes against Space Marines that we will basically nuke ourselves?
Radiation poisoning anyone? Not to mention natural damage that last thousands of years...
just ask yourself why none is using nukes today in some war?

Simple there either has been no need for it or it would mean risking retaliation. You know some Russian generals would have authority to use tactical nukes on will in the case of an war.
The overall danger of nukes is highly exaggerated thanks to hollywood and some anti nuclear factions spreading false information.
Also nukes wouldn't be very effective against Space Marines for they are wearing an NBC-protected armor and are naturally more resistant to radiation.

You did hear about Krieg and Chernobyl?
I wouldn't call that "anti nuclear factions spreading false information".
The point is that they are not used because they are poisoning the area they are detonated. If everyone would use them radiation level on Earth would increase and we would be living like Kriegsmen.

Chernobyl is nowadays an tourist attraction and people live relatively close to it. Hiroshima and Nagasaki are totally radiated ruins and not blooming cities.
And you know most modern nukes are heat nukes that burn more cleanly than old nukes. ( They create less radiation but an stronger blast with the same amount of uranium/plutonium. )
I'm not sure about other countries but the Russians would totally try to nuke them if they are hostile.

Well, considering that a regular human punching kills a space marine every 18 punches or so, I'd say that just about anything can kill a Space Marine. They're actually really wimpy.

That is true, but the main reason is like the cold war (1950s), the Americans had nukes, the Russians had nukes, but using a nuke meant they would nuke you back and nobody is prepared to make those decisions in good conscience

It's the whole M.A.D. senario ( Mutually Assured Destruction).
One nation fires some nukes, another fires some of theirs, and next thing you know, everyone with nukes are launching all of them at everyone else. Eventually there is not a single patch of livable land, and Earth ends up like Krieg, except no one is alive here.

Why woudl they do that when they can bring a fertile agg-world in to the fold instead? I mean our planet is pretty damned fertile, add in some Imperial technology to make it moreso, and we could probably ship off plenty of food. It would take a daemonic or tyrranic infestation of major proportions for the Imperium to turn away such a viable planet.
