hosed up tiny wolf was part of the dumb as gently caress hover-chariot that the Space Wolves got if I remember correctly.

Not Sisters of Silence, not Sister of Battle. Astartes. So, to my specific question: Yes, they could do it. No, they never would because it'd be ten times more costly to do this than making normal Astartes. Also the Emperor purposefully allowed all of Angron's fellow slaves to get slaughtered like dogs. That's why Angron hated the big E. HTH

lets just make all new breastplate to contain their swole tits. No way the imperium has the know-how to design anything new and produce it at large scale. Prolly end up with normal armor with tit holes cut out

Partly true, from a real world perspective, but this is a galaxy where we have huge diversity in human phenotype – from ratlings to squats to beastmen. It's entirely possible that a recruiting world might produce stronger/physically more capable women than men – we even have House Escher from Necromunda as an example. That's putting aside the general reality that while there's a disparity between males and females at the extremes of physical fitness, that doesn't run through the general populace. A female athlete could very easily be fitter, stronger and faster than a large proportion of men, for example – even male athletes from different disciplines. Further, the argument that you should feed the Astartes-making resources to the inherently physically more capable is moot in a galaxy with ogryns. The background has been fairly consistent in that it's the 'will to win' that's vital to a recruit, not their physical capability – as that's exactly what the geneseed/process is meant to override and improve. Part of the dystopian reality of the setting is the body horror that the Imperium can and will alter you physically. So, a plausible in-universe explanation for the possibility of female pseudo-Astartes can be made. However, I'd note that the hypocrisy and general malaise of the setting is typified by general oppressiveness, reactionism and ultra-fascist policies – so misogyny unfortunately fits in right alongside the other more unpleasant aspects of humanity in the 40k setting. In the 30th Millennium, however, there's more of a sense of enlightenment and fair play – but even here I'd note that it's far from a liberal paradise. To answer the initial question, 'Could a female undergo the same enhancements undergone by individuals like Kor Phaeron, circa the Age of Darkness?', I'd say 'yes, in theory'. I wouldn't personally have any problem with such a character/army – indeed, handled well, the concept provides a huge number of great story hooks, plot arcs and ideas. However, there's a great risk of it being handled or interpreted badly in tabletop terms (if that's the ultimate goal), so I'd say it's more of a headache than it's worth. However, for an alternative setting, it's intriguing. Consider the following: 1) An Expeditionary fleet arrives at Nuceria. The Emperor deploys his troops to fight alongside Angron, convincingly defeating the highriders. A great number of the slave army survives. 2) Wary, but grateful, Angron joins the Crusade. He takes command of the Warhounds and demands that all survivors be offered the choice of joining the Legion. 3) Attempts to 'elevate' the first wave of female volunteers of the army fails, so Angron demands his chireurgeons use the pseudo-astartes techniques (as for Kor Phaeron, Luther etc.) 4) Rape 5) A small cadre of female 'Astartes' are created.

Heeere we go again. The answer to the question "could there be women space marines" is not and will never be based on whether it "would make sense" in the lore. It's a design decision made by terrible human beings, and it won't and can't happen until or unless the people in control of the IP become less terrible. That's the entirety of the discussion right there. It could be done if GW wanted to do it and was willing to alter their IP in a significant way, but they don't, so it won't happen. All the rest is the the worst sort of inspid fan-canon wankery.

My mother, who was educated at the University of Chicago, a fairly liberal place, and who had travelled around Europe and Israel by herself, was of the opinion that, with the exception of a few "amazons", war was a "realm that women should not enter." that is direct quote from her after reading Storm of Steel by Ernst Junger. We all agree that there are exceptional individuals suited for combat, let's leave it at that and, as Kol Saresk said, let's get back on topic. One small issue; it should be sex, not gender. Gender is whether a word is masculine, feminine or neutral. Sex is whether an organism is male or female. It's a pet peeve of mine.

You agree that average males > average females? Then you should agree that exceptional males > exceptional females If the enhancement program is seeking top physical specimens, there will still be a preference for males. If you take all the exceptional males and average them and if you take the exceptional females and average them, the male average will in all likelihood be superior. Furthermore, there will be an elite group of males who are physically superior to all females. This is corroborated in real life athletics. This of course doesn't mean circumstances would never permit a female to receive enhancements...but superior male physical performance at all levels is a biological fact. I can't believe people are actually disputing this or trying to minimise this. Wow...

What's really surprising is that no one has thought to put Space Marine organs in a dog and then put that dog in power armor and a bolter that shoots whenever it barks and chainswords for teeth. I mean come on, you know the Space Wolves have at least tried. And GW could sell a bunch of new dog models.
