So definitely on the lighter side.

Fun/interesting/terrifying fact: there were actual large scale vehicle mounted flamethrowers. The two examples that come to mind were actual dedicated flamethrower tanks, and a large system being mounted on boats for burning the jungles of Vietnam away, which I'm less certain existed. Suddenly the giant flamethrowers on 40k Imperial mechs don't seem as crazy.
