Moles don't carry flamethrowers that can cause your body armor to sprout tentacles and strangle you.
Moles that lack nukes and can't swim for the example. There's nothing the Skaven can do to the Salamanders.

Except gnaw on the electrical wires.
Except the Salamanders are in space. You don't seem to be getting that.

I'm sure there's some way they'll get stowed away or find their way on a space hulk or something.

And how does that happen where there's no spacecraft on the planet which is immediately reduced to slag.

Except the Salamanders will be immune because the Emprah protects.

While the entire debate is ridiculous in the extreme, i have to think that one of the favored methods of Exterminatus employed by the Inquisition would have deleterious effects on Skaven - Atmospheric Incineration. I have to think that would make it hard for even the Skaven to survive, for like, a dozen reasons. All a Sally captain has to do is dial "1-800-I-done-found-me-a-new-Xeno", and i'd imagine the Ordos Xenos would show up lickity split. I would also imagine it would take all of, oh, eight minutes to consign the entire Skaven race to death from even the most liberal of Ordo's Xenos Inquisitors.
Here's a simple question to ask in anything. Does one faction have spacecraft with orbital bombardment capabilities while the other lacks anything capable of harming spacecraft? If both answers are yes, the faction with orbital assets will win.
Agreed, you can't really go father into an argument after this point has been made.
The Salamanders would just destroy the planet when it comes to the Skaven issue, unless the Skaven have developed wooden space ships bound together with bandages, skin, rusty nails and other Skaven.
Little orphans in the snow
With nowhere to call a home
Start their singing, singing
Waiting through the summertime
To thaw your hearts in wintertime
That's why they're singing, singing

Well I don't know much about Salamander fluff but how would the Emperor protect them from all magic?
Can't use your 5+ invuln save against the Dreaded Thirteen
Just hard to compare these 2 races when one has power armour and gun the other has slaves they just throw in to get killed while casting magic haha and from 2 different time periods
