I don't think so, no.
And while Kostin is a lowly guardsman, surely he still has an opinion on the matter? As a member of the retinue his view is as equally valid as anyone else's.

Shame. Will have to look to getting some of that in next world. On topic on the whole clusterfuck, biggest problem with Cortez(?) rule is that he wants to declare independence and thus force the IoM to retaliate in force because otherwise they would risk domino effect of other rebellions since IoM is apparently too weak to enforce their rule. He could have just popped up his government and pretend to rule in IoMs name without much problem since imperial command has apparently forgotten that the place even exist. But now he would just bring IoM attention back to his little empire and get stomped in return.

Keep in mind this whole area of space is right on the fringe of Imperium territory in the far galactic east - other than Dominus station there's barely any Imperial military force bar PDFs, and after the recent crusade Dominus station's forces and the various guard units that aided them in the crusade are operating in a weakened state.
Cortez isn't interested in an empire though - but Katerina is. Of course, she also wants to take her big fat armada and ram it down the throats of the people in the Vindico system, which is conveniently where the rogue Inquisitors have set up shop (for those of you who may have forgotten). Might be worth considering.
Do desperate times call for desperate (and possibly reckless) measures? Or will your characters stick to the rigid principles instilled in them above all else?

He did invade her home and shoot it up. But then again she is also a xenos and a pirate.
Anyway, let's see what the others have to say as well.

Come on guys, we're right here at the end of the chapter! I'm excited to see what you/your characters decide here. Let's see some discussion.

Excellent post melissia, nice seeing someone assert themselves in this pivotal moment. I'll do an event response when I can, both to allow other players to post/give their characters' opinion and also because I am tired at the moment.

You guys have free reign to post all you like, do some in depth character development and interaction or anything else you may choose. For those who few of you who were in Deathwatch way back in the day, this'll be a lot like the ship-board segment we did early on in that game. I'll be going easy on events unless people end up extremely stuck for ideas of what to write about. Oh, Severine is off duty as well, so this is an opportunity for people to interact with her outside of simply working towards completing missions/fighting bad guys, which I think is the first opportunity for that so far.
