That logo is actually signifying what his duties are on the battlefield, which is one of the Chapter's heavy weapons squads, Devastators or whatever was added in 8e with G-Man coming back.
 
I actually kinda like some of the new primaris Marines. They actually look like they have some character to them which is something that the primaris really needed imo.

Ignoring my lukewarm anticipation for the actual book, can someone explain to me why the black dude essentially has a (not)Alpha Legion crest on his shoulder? I dont remember anything like that in the ultramarines, and its suspiciously close to the alpha legion's

IIRC, that's the insignia of the Greyshields, the Primaris Marines who made up the bulk of the Indomitus Crusade's forces.
 
If they want to make stories about black astartes, why not just use the Salamanders or the Celestial Lions?
nigga salamanders arent black black, they are just pitch black. People have always been so retarded on this. There is literally no reason why there would not be black space marines in a lot of legions, especially primaris. The gene seed doesnt even reshape marines equally. Its why Aximand got the name "little horus"? Its because his mutation made him look the closest to horus. If a black dude gets the gene seed its not gonna perfectly bleach his skin white unless its some sort of freak gene seed mutation. Its really a shame that sjws poisoned the well so hard on minorities that having a black dude on the cover is now an easy joke. If any legion had black dudes, it would probably be the ultramarines anyway, since they have like a gorrilion planets in Ultramar. It would only start getting really weird if black space wolves and white scars started showing up, but even then, they have their primaris diversity hires. Forgive the sperg out, but /tg/ would not shut up about it.

Either really poor taste on gullymans part, or very suspicious.

There’s still the Celestial Lions, who are now best buds with the Black Templars. Ergo, they don’t have to worry about anymore inquisition tomfuckery

any GK players here? if so you guys got any hopes for releases?
 
Random thought, but imagine if gully actually died to Alpharius/Omegon, and one of them is just pretending to be gully after some chaotic plastic surgery? Imagine how fucking retarded but entertaining that would be. I dont know much about the alpha legion themselves, but ive read in random places that they share a tactical mindset to the smurfs anyway. Thats my tinfoil hat.

Lol sadly we are past any point were they would use a story about imperial fists as a kick off for a major story development, if it aint a smurf, it aint getting front and center.
 
Ill be content if they replace that stupid baby carrier with something, anything else.
yeah thats probably near the top of the list, plus side it could be a hell of a challenge to make it look acceptable until a replacement comes along, i just hope its not to much primaris wank.

pretty cool go at it.
 
All we'll get from now on is primaris wank. GW wasn't content to have a single Spess Mureens faction, now they're slowly moving towards a second. If the IG didn't have a reliable fanbase of WorldWaraboos, they'd be at risk of getting squatted like the Brets.

While many might see the Primaris as harmless, I personally am pissed that instead of something new - Human, xeno, or otherwise - we just get super-super engineered space romans when the ones we had were eye rollingly mary sue-ish to begin with. GW clearly has no idea what to do with the spess mureens in the new setting other than make them spees mureen-y-er.

was cadias destruction actually a meta reference to GWs attitude towards the guard, let alone any non SM factions?

Cadia had to blow up for the setting to advance. The whole Dark Imperium has been handled very well overall; GW learned their lesson from End Times. But even so, we should be seeing the space marines starting to deviate (think transition from Roman era armies to early medieval armies, although each major chapter transitioning differently and gaining unique models along the way) and lose some of their uniformity; not this mary sue shit.
 
Celestial Lions are African as fuck in all of the coolest ways, which is why they won't get any actual attention, lest they reveal how shallow SJW thinking is. As to any skin bleaching... that's what the Raven Guard geneseed is for.

They could have just given normal space marines an extra wound and bumped up the points cost in game. Lore wise the return of the blue man could have allowed them take a pre heresy attitude and allowed for large legions instead of just taller space marines.
 
Man, the /tg/ threads about this were a combination of crowing leftypol fags bragging about having a win and how they were going to destroy the evil "INCEL MANBABBIES" that were preventing Tyrone from entering the game stores, and rightypol fags telling them repeatedly to fuck off.

All this because of a black Ultramarine?


9e thoughts:
  • SOB being brought forward to try and distract the woke? I'm strangely OK with this, as long as they're kept separate.
  • Primaris slowly absorbing the rest of the Space Marine lineup is expected. I hope to start seeing some Primaris in busted other marks of armor, that would go far to help my problems with them.
  • Necrons becoming the new primary antagonist is actually kinda cool. I wasn't expecting that.
Wonder what the "Dawn of Fire" is. I'm actually really interested in whatever fluff is coming in 9e.
 
So, I'm kinda on of a 40k video game kick:

Finished, pretty thouroughly, Deathwing. I ended up not liking it. I think part of the reason is that it was poorly optimized for the ps4. It just looked and controlled like trash.

I think the PC version was probably significantly better. But, the game got repetitive anyways...

Started playing Inquisitor Martyr. I actually like it quite a bit. It's a little overwhelming and doesn't explain much(in terms of mechanics). But, it's significantly better than the Deathwing experience.

I'm kinda shocked it got such terrible reviews, it seems to me a very competent Diablo clone...

I also picked up Space Hulk: Tactics which, I believe, is the best one of the bunch. But, I haven't started it yet....

If anyone has played Martyr, could someone help me navigate the DLC. It seems like season pass is a rip off, especially with Prophecy being independent of it..

I just want to pick up the ones worth it and dump the cosmetic, and worthless missions...

40K general has been fucking awful since the reveals not to mention all the spam pics of sigmarxism. I’m gonna stick to /wip/ threads until the spergs stop flinging shit.

I really wanted to play deathwing since I wanted a console replacement for Left 4 Dead since I don’t have a PC. Shame that it’s just awful.

Have you not seen the Ultramarine successor chapter, the Sons of Orar?
