Sure its hard, no one said it isn't. But the warp is a fickle bitch (yes, I like understatement) and any damage to a Gellar field in real space is a travel annoyance, in the warp its kiss your ass goodbye time. The fact that the Macharius couldn't escape the Contagion by repeatedly diving into the warp means the Contagion was able to repeatedly duplicate that feat, that it wasn't just a fluke. I suspect self preservation plays as much a role in not engaging warp combat as ability.NecronLord wrote: No one's ever said otherwise. Insane. Not Impossible. And there's an implication there that with normal navigators it'd be difficult to close to sufficient range and keep steady long enough to do serious damage to an equivalent vessel, which to be honest, is rather more restirictive than I'd have imagined.
And in 40K, insanity isn't that uncommon.
