Space Marines 5th Chapter Vote

Discussion in 'Announcements' started by KatieFleming, Jun 23, 2015.

  1. Considering that there was only two options for the Orks' sub-faction vote the number of voting options being fixed at three isn't true.

    They should have added the Salamanders as a fourth voting option.

    Agreed :) and i still cannot come up with an logical reason why the Salamanders got excluded, they have a big community of players here

    Huh, well, thought the orcs had three but woops!

    I still think it isn't the same as adding the fourth option, everyone else didn't get that many. Now, would have been nice if maybe they had.
  4. The flamer issue is a possibility but it's very minor. I'd say it's due to them being based on the galactic east (same for White Scars), but that brings up the problem with Raven Guard being in the galactic south opposite of the segmentum Arkhona is in. Only the Iron Hands have their homeworld in the Segmentum Obscurus. Imperial Fists are a crusade chapter with known recruiting worlds in both Solar and Tempestus, so they can be found just about everywhere.

  5. Imperial Fists. Space marines don't sneak and hide like bitches, that's how I decided on who to vote for. Interesting concept the Raven Gaurd but leave that sort of stuff to Eldar and Chaos.

    Well Brent did explain the reasoning behind some missing, im sure the "in some cases" is referring to Salamanders here (26:39):

    "We were trying to make sure that we were able to do justice to the chapters we were picking, so other guys would make more sense when we get certain weapons in"


    This leads me to believe that the lack of Salamanders was indeed tied to the lack of flame weapons.

  7. There is this word that fits this... narrow-minded.
    Then again some like "recklessly charging into the enemy's ranks."

    Well on the voting page the team may want to check the Iron Hands vote. I don't think they intended the Iron Hands to have been a part of the Adeptus Astartas "For ten thousandyears"
  9. The Iron Hands are famous for not believing in the heresy of "Spell Check"
