It’s a bit like the Authority in this setting have taken the Imperium of Man and inverted it - instead of using Terminator Space Marines to clear space hulks they send in the Imperial Guard, who are a red army analogue for a reason, and when they’re keeping the peace and protecting the status quo they start deploying super soldiers.

Edit: Aye, I figured that just shooting a random pipe on a fuel refinery platform would get everyone in a ten mile radius incinerated, but even in the modern day you can usually see steam pipes labelled. Breaking the circuit of coolant will be bad in the slightly longer but still immediate run, but if it’s that or receive instant cranial vault penetration, I know what risks I’d rather take.
