@wolfie65 that’s why you wouldn’t play such a scene in a rpg with miniatures …

@onlyonepinman that’s exactly why I’m trying to find a new game where lore and game/armylists are more in sync.
I think GW painted itself into a corner by the powercreep that’s been going on since day 1 of the system.

And I suspect the fanboys would riot if they ever dared to do a full reset of the faction/unit balance. The 8th edition lore would have been the perfect opportunity, but (again) they chose the short term sale of new models over long term balance. At least I’d like to imagine that if the new ‘Primaris’ version of spacemarines were limited (and possibly not even allowed for some chapters … ) we’d be seeing a game that would be closer to the lore as written because that suggests that turning a spacemarine into a primaris was dangerous.
