Primaris Marines are the next step forward in Space Marine evolution (Not counting the Raptors). Big Bobby G got together with Belisarius Cawl and put together this next generation of Astartes. They are bigger, faster, stronger, and maybe smarter than all that have come before them. Buckle up boys, its about to get hot in here.
New Stuff
- The basic Primaris Marine is encased in Mark X Tacticus Armour. Basically it's the best of all the suits that came before it wrapped up into one convenient package. (Sadly no Beakie helm, but at least its got that sweet Maximus style vox grill.)
- They Wield the Bolt rifle as their standard firearm. Apparently a "perfected" version of the ubiquitous bolter, it certainly has a statline to back it up. [Range: 30" Strength: 4 AP: -1 and Rapid Fire]
- Apparently they are created from the Gene-Seed of all the Loyalist Primarchs, but it is unknown how having all the genetic quirks will affect them. We could see anything from Blood Angels with cute little Cupid wings to Lamenters with terrifying vampire fangs to translucent skinned Raven Guard to even blacker skinned Salamanders to Space Wolves with fluffy little tails.
Types of Primaris Marines
So far we've only got one type, but more are on the way we are told.
Intercessors
Intercessors are the equivalent of Tactical Marines. They have an extra wound and attack compared to the original Tactical Marines and a Cawl Pattern Bolt Rifle in the place of the regular bolter, which should let them last a little longer in melee and give them a better chance against light vehicles than a bare-bones Tactical Marine squad. However, they also cost more points to field and cannot equip any special or heavy weapons.
Primaris Redemptor Dreadnought
Only mentioned in passing in the Primaris Marines FAQ.
