	The key difference to differentiate between the two however (Other than the obvious differing appearance of the marines), is that the Ancient allows a mortally slain allied unit to fight once before dying (Think of it as a last stand or the [[Gene-seed#Primaris Space Marines\|Belisarian Furnace]] working in action), whilst the Apothecary tells him to suck it up, stop being a pussy and get back in the fight. Both of these marines offer unique playstyles with neither of the two being blatantly superior than the other. So whether you want to have an Ancient or Apothecary is up to you.

	Basically, if you want to have a unit that brings back downed units, then choose the Apothecary, if you want to allow your dying unit to offer one last fuck you to the enemy, then choose the Ancient. And if you want that dead unit to come back and do it again next turn, you take them both.

The Primaris Ancient functions pretty much the same as regular old Adeptus Astartes Standard Bearers with the exception of the equipment and armour they are carrying.

	In case you were wondering, "Ancient" is an old corruption of the rank of "Ensign" which was a term for an army's flagbearer in the Middle Ages, so it has nothing to do with how old the Marine in question actually is; that said, since you have to earn enough honor to hold the standard, these guys are likely somewhat ancient.

	The Primaris Ancient is often confused with the [[Primaris Apothecary]] as they both seem to offer some buffs or special support abilities to their Primaris comrades. Usually, the confusion stems from the fact that from a newfag's perspective, both of these units have a similar ability to recoup some of the value from slain marines, and both of them seem very worthwhile when teaming up with the more expensive Primaris marine choices.
