In keeping with my apparent theme of dry, desert worlds the scenario is that the Imperium invasion force of Taro is swept up by some wacky warpstorms through time and space and deposited on the doorstep of Vulcan and collectively shrug and say "Close enough" and prepare to "liberate" the world in the name of the God-Emperor. Vulcan, and presumbly the Federation at large, are not obliged to agree in the "wisdom" of the alleged Emperor and can be expected to resist. My question then is two fold, can the Imperium take Vulcan and can they hold it.
Imperium forces, taken from Lexicanum but they appear copy-pasted straight from Imperial armor III, consist of the following:
Note:Beyond the Taros Intervention force conisting of the Avenging Sons marine chapter which wasn't part of the actual planet's invasion, being a special ops mission to assasinate the Planetary govenor before hand, and isn't to be included at all by OP fiat all of this arrives in the Vulcan system togather and on time instead of the more piecemeal manner some of them arrived in the original Imperial armor III.4621st Imperial ArmyX Corp
