1. Thought "超弩級" literally means "Super dreadnought", it is usually translated into simply "Super".
2. -
3. -
4. "成就" should be "fulfill" or "accomplish" here.
5. -
6. "奪回" is "Get (sth) back".
7. -
8. "Win the Battle between the Light and the Darkness!"

1. I've never seen "超弩級" translated as "super"—but then, I almost never encounter it, so...

6. "Recover" means "get (something) back", so that's fine.

7. FWIW, the compound 特攻 ("special attack") was used to describe the Japanese WWII forces that the Allies called "kamikaze". It doesn't have to mean "suicide attack", but it might, depending on context.

8. "Gain victory" suits the more grandiose tone, but "Win the Battle of Light and Darkness" (no need for "the" to precede "light" or "darkness" in this case) works too.
