That would be a unique idea. But I don't think they will make an apperance until a year or two down the road after the official launch. Right now the Devs have just the DOW four (Orks, Space Marines, Chaos Marines, & Eldar).
Seriously, when you play space marines or Chaos space marine you always wear an helmet ... it's very rare when someone want to show his/her head ... So man or woman that's doesn't matter
Any major additions more than likely won't happen off the bat. Sisters of Battle and the forces of the Inquisition will more than likely make an appearance. They are too big a part of 40k to not be included.
yeah, but add Sister's of Battle, if it's for appearance is uselles, because we don't show the head of your Marines and Sister of battle have same type of armour, if it's for add the inquisition you make marines stronger than other race and also more attractive, so you make a imbalance between the different faction, so it's not a good idea too... if you add sister of battle you NECESSARY need to improve stats of other faction, and that's a lot of work and our game will be ready for 2016... I think we just have to wait and try to improve the game with uptades If my English is horrible forgive a young french ^^'
Pretty sure the chest on Space Marine armor doesn't look like that. SoB do suffer from Female Armor Syndrome, though it's a relatively minor case. But yeah, I'd probably add them as a "chapter" rather than an independent faction. So basically when you join Space Marines you can be Red Marine (Blood Angels), Blue Marine (Ultrasmurfs), Green Marine (Dark Angels), Wolfy Marine (Space Wolves), or Female Marine (Sisters of Battle).
I do like and prefer SoB as one of the first few, post-launch faction. i'd presume SM and SoB team-up often in a temporary alliance.
