Does it fail as satire? Does this kind of thing work as good satire for specific people? Somebody explain.

I love that the Catachan have an officer fragging mechanic

For non 40K-Knowers, the Catachan are a Guard subfaction very obviously styled after US troops in Vietnam. If your army includes any commissars, you have to roll a die during deployment to see if they even make it to the battlefield. The rule is called Oops, sorry sir!

That's so fucking good, I've been a guard man for a minute now and I didn't even know about that rule
