How many 21st century Earth soldiers would die before taking out a force of 100 Custodes in its entirety?

[Tyzuris]

Basically assume that a force of a hundred Custodes lands on Earth to a battlefield with two nations' entire corps worth of soldiers (so we're talking multiple divisions with infantry, armour, artillery and air support). Assume the Custodes don't have vehicular support asides from some bikes. And they'd have a few dreadnoughts as well along with some dozen Custodes in Terminator armours.

How many soldiers would be needed to take out this force of a 100 Custodes?

Custodes do not have orbital support or air / spacecraft to move around in with.

If we use H bomb,none of ours.With tanks and air forces...could 120mm schells and guided bombs kill them ? if so,they would die quickly. If not,we lost 2 corps.

How many soldiers and tanks would it take to bury the Custodes under bodies and debris?

Soldiers would do nothing,but tanks? it depend how many 120mm schell we need to kill one Custode.And if it is doable at all.
If not,we must use H bombs.

High altitude bombing and missile strikes. LOTS of arty if they aren't danger close. If they are danger close we'll wait till the Global Hawks show how are people are being massacred. Then well just fire for effect till they stop moving.

Yeah having Air Support makes this kinda lame. They need to be able to rip and tear until they are done (for).

Quick question are the custodes immune to nerve agents? Because if not we could always just saturate an area with enough toxins to make it uninhabitable for the next decade.

Yes. Unless it's some super strong freaky Nurgle toxin.

Their armours are fully environmentally sealed and they themselves are resistant to most poisons.

I guess we’d get to see the scene of people shooting jet out of the sky with Guns, one bolter at a time.

While running.Something like from chineese movies,only with 3m tall banana mens in cool armours.

Helicopters would be toast along with anything low and slow. High altitude aircraft would be safe...except for those damn LasCannons!

The jetbikes should have AA missiles and lascannons equipped, so yes.

Did Custodes have jetbikes? i thought,that banana men used only spears.

They've got jetbikes, tanks, transports, airpower, spears, axes, swords, shields, dreadnoughts, dreadnought swords, storm bolters, a gold plated tactical kitchen sink, etc.

I am imagining Custodes taking out jet bomber by throwing Pilum....

On the tabletop, that is in fact possibly. I'm not sure if it works in setting though, imperial antigrav craft can only go so high, and I'm pretty sure that max height is expressed best in meters rather than kilometers.

Their jetbikes are equipped w/ AA missiles, so they'd pose a threat at the least.

Possibly, it depends entirely on what the missiles are capable of, just because it’s designed to hit aircraft doesn't mean it works equally well against any aircraft. For example, stinger missiles can only engage aircraft that are below 3,500 meters, any manu bombers never fly that low.

Then we need to nuke all of it to win.If they get smart and disperse/we could not take even one with tanks/,then it mean at least 100 nukes.
And since their tanks probably survive tactical nuke,it could need more.
