Thank the Emperor there are sane Brothers out there like you who understand these things. I've run across far too many who would prefer endless customization options that to stick to the lore. MKIV and MKVII would be acceptable for a new Space Marine, totally agree. Idealy, I'd like Artificer armor and MKVIII to be an uncommon site to behold on the battlefield, as well as high honors like the Iron Halo and the Valour Crest.
Since I can't have Black Templar.. I am torn between Dark Angels and Blood Angels. But I suppose I favor Blood angels slightly.
Space Wolves, they are Vikings in space, and i can trace my family line back to the Norse tribes, so im going Space Wolves P.S. 'all your base are belong to Russ'
Hopefully though, they get the colors right. I cannot express the rage at how Relic always manages to botch the Chapter and Warband skins to a retarded degree. Black Templars? Naw man, didn't you know? They're the Grey Templars. While it was fairly decent in Space Marine, the skin colors were atrocious in Dawn of War. Especially for Chaos. Emperor's Children do not have a pink trim unless they're noise marines- otherwise their standard colors are deep purple and silver. Night Lords are a deep blue, not the pale blue in DOW. Thousand Sons also have a slightly deep blue, and not baby blue. The list goes on. However, I have hopes that Behavior will actually look at their codices, unlike Relic. (Also, as for colors, the Dark Angels should have a large variety, along with the Blood Angels and Space Wolves.)
blood angels it could be a lore break to have space wolves and dark angels fighting side by side... just saying...
Blood Angels: so close to the damnation and so perfect in the arts. I love this Chapter since my entry in the world of WH40K at the end of the second edition. And my favorite colour is red
