Are we talking melee? Because that would be... A case Tau could explain. Warning, unfunny joke above. "Normal" combat? Well, there's always a chance, but it depends on the aspect. If it's the Dire Avengers, he would get pulverized to dust. Striking Scorpions or Howling Banshees is another matter.

I, as an Imperial Guardsman, can assure you that there is no greater glory than the thrill of charging the enemy, uncharacteristically surviving having contributed absolutely nothing, then finding a blast crater to sleep in while they tally the approximate number of casualties. All before getting shipped off to the next front. I've gotten to learn so many languages traveling the stars, all of them pretty much English. I also learned how to convincingly look like I am un-jamming a Lasgun, never mind the fact that it shoots lasers, which has saved me from getting killed a couple times. Let's see... I've almost managed to talk to my family a total of two times since I was drafted 13 years ago! Once on the way out to the recruiting office and another time before they sealed the door to our ship! It's not really a problem though now since they are dead. Orks, can't live with 'em, can't live around 'em! ...Hey! here, look, I've got some photos right here I managed to keep around. Just don't tell my Commissar. This was my third front but gosh there was a lot going on! I mean, there's a Warlord class Titan back there! Needless to say everyone was pretty busy, and my Commissar was not pleased with me taking photos. This was only a couple months ago. Between the Nids and that guy on the left bombing all my photos that campaign, I was glad when I got out of there. Had to hang on to the landing wheels of an Imperial Navy vessel as it was taking off. One of the larger Exterminatus' I've ever seen....I've got more if any of this at all has peaked your interest.
I just wanted to say that when i see this thread title I keep reading it as: 'Sell me on your vacation'. ghehe
Space Marine's of course.. Space Wolves, What other Chapter is there? I mean Blood Raven's? Pfft.. No.. bunch of loosers who keep falling to Chaos. Ultramarines.. Fanatics... No no, has to be the Space Wolves. (Mind I'm biased). Oh sure Eldar isn't too bad a choice either.. But who wants to be a space elf? Ok.. me.. maybe, they are my second favorite behind the Space Wolves, though I don't have a particular favorite Craftworld, I have always been fond of Harlequins, Death Jesters, Warp Spiders and Swooping Hawks. Chaos... No.. Look what happens to you, extra arms and mutations, complete love of destruction...Pfft.. heretics, thats what the Exterminatus is for! And Orks.... Well.. if you don't mind being green (It worked for Kermit the Frog and the Incredible Hulk) and being from a race that breeds faster than rabbits.. then.. whatever, as Warlord Gorgutz would say "Orks is da biggest and 'da strongest." and he was right, tough green buggers. Imperial Guard...... Are we even getting that option? If so, even I might consider them "If" I could be a Vindicare Assassin, Cause, sneaky sneaky... BANG! *Dead*.
You can have your Vindicare if we can have the Warp Talons...sneaking is all very well, but there's nothing like bursting through the walls in a halo of warp energy, eviscerating the luckless target, then tearing back into the warp while his companions are still in the act of turning round and wondering why the air has suddenly turned all red and misty...
