I've had a vision, in my head that an Ogre cybertank was the ultimate, invincible armored vehicle.
Without nukes they cannot penetrate the armor of a Third Imperium grav tank.
The fusion gun of the grav tank needs a lucky hit to penetrate the frontal armor of an Ogre mkVI, but it can.
If the Imperium uses proper combined arms tactics, and the Imperial Army normally does, then the most effective weapons the Ogre have will be nullified.
A battlefield nuclear damper field will put a... um... damper on the effectiveness of the normal nuclear projectiles from the primary and secondary guns. Even without this protection, the VRF gauss gun on point defense mode is prolly sufficient to keep nukes from being effective. The point defense X-Ray laser is even better at the job.
We'll just ignore the meson gunned artillery units that even the thickest bi-phased carbide armor can't stop. A perfectly intact Ogre without a mark on it and no brain...
This assumes the Imperium wishes to land troops.
They could drop things from orbit.
Lots of rocks out there to drop from orbit.
The Emperor doesn't LIKE dangerously radioactive glass balls in Their Imperium.
Dangerously radioactive glass balls don't pay much in the way of taxes and are hardly a reward when you create a new noble and grant them a fief.
