I really like that they’ve imported the 30k idiom of pintle-mounted multilasers into 40k: CS Goto eat your goddamn heart out.

Is there actually lore behind why 30k (and because of this, CSMs) only has “Combi-bolters” rather than Storm Bolters?

Storm Bolters came after the heresy and later renegade chapters always forget to take them with them

Man, Chinese ebay sites are amazing. I just wanted to pick up some cheap magnets for terrain, but ended up getting glow in the dark phosphorescent pigments, a soldering iron, bioluminescent plant seeds, a poo poo-ton of adhesive metal plates, novelty bumper stickers, and magician’s smoke paper.

Be prepared to be disappointed by the seeds

They look cheaply made because they are cheaply made. GW licenses to anyone. There's probably a dozen different games with GW licenses in development at any time.

I mean, how many Space Hulk games have their been in the past few years? Space Hulk Tactics is upcoming. Deathwing has been released and rereleased, desperately trying to generate some revenue. I remember getting a Space Hulk game as a gift from a friend three or four years ago - but the online presence of that one is now zero. I had to look it up on my steam to be sure I hadn't imagined it. And I'm not sure I haven't missed one.

Deathwing is extremely good IMHO

I want them to make a nod to the various fan-concepts, and have Primaris Chapters from loyalist geneseed go rogue, whilst somehow it becomes more and more obvious that ostensibly loyal Primaris Chapters are borne from Traitor geneseed, and it's not something inherent; A good nod to the nature/nurture debate that has been part of the 40k canon since RT.

"Oh, the Noctis Regere? Yeah, they're fine. I mean, they wear the skins of their enemies, and have taken to terrorising populations, but only BAD ones, so that's fine."
"The War Hounds Chapter? Bit savage, but incredibly loyal."

"Woops, this White Scar Primaris Chapter went AWOL!"

My personal 40k :tinfoil:

theory is that Primaris marines are just Thunder Warriors without the stuff that makes them melt and go cuckoo-bananas

Pretty sure that arm has a little grill in the wrist that I assume is a communicator of some sort. So you’d stick it on your sergeant to pose him giving orders. Though they’re supposed to talk over a helmet channel so I guess it’s for chatting with outside forces not worthy of their primaris commlinks? Like some conscripts that they brought along to carry all the command points.

Primaris armour has a small supply of jerky stored in a compartment in the arm, Sarge is just going in for a bite

The crossover between GSC and AdMech was baked into the initial design of the minis, 'the cult of the bladed cog' is GW's official phrase for it.

It's OK if you think using rape as a descriptive word is acceptable. But that isn't acceptable, so 1d4chan is garbage.
