I wouldn't say they're the bread and butter, more the underlying structure on which mostly everything else is built on. Marines do not submit to the Inquisition, they will work alongside an Inquisitor, if the inquisitor asks veyr nicely or if their goals are they same, submission however, does not happen.

Good to know.
Movie will need at least one Alpha Psyker.
70 minutes long? Did I misread or is it seriously going to be 70 minutes long? No movie under 2 hours in lenght has even been even slightly good.

Siince it's the Ultramarines they could use Tigurius.
Ultramarines agian? Why don't they do a story based on one of the IG factions, like the Ice Warriors of Valhalla, or the Death Korps of Krieg...

The only one that they can give excuses for not dying En Masse for, personally, would be Cadia.
[QUOTE=Free-lancer;17583708]The Ultramarines did pwn the nids. The Space Wolves would've just said, "Fuck strategy" and charge headlong into the Hive Fleet and gotten their furry asses eaten.[/QUOTE]
1stly, they aren't furries, they are vikings based off of Fenris the wolf god that will bring upon Ragnarok once freed from his chains on Yggdrassil.
and 2nd. Space wolves use strategy, they aren't stupid. They are quite tactical, but when things get up close is when things get out of hand.
Usually the Wolves hacking everything not in Grey to bits.
You sir are an ignorant fuck and should go jerk off to some IG or something.
At least they're not using the Blood Ravens. God, no one had ever heard of them before Dawn of War, and now they seem to be the main important chapter! I've never liked them one bit. Ultramarines are cool.
How the fuck are they going to explain the Omophagea Implant.
Scratch that, watching an Ultramarine in CGI consuming the brain of an enemy with no explanation as to why he is doing it would be fucking hilarious.
Horus Heresy.
Do It.
You could buy the entire Ultramarines chapter in TT.
Although it would cost like 5000 US dollars though.

The blood ravens were created in Dawn of War so that's no surprise.
[QUOTE=RayvenQ;17587986]Ultramarines aren't cool, they're starch arse rule followers.[/QUOTE]
The Ultramarines are pretty damn cool, and they're pretty damn cool because if Space Marines are cool, and if the Ultramarines epitomise Space Marines through their absolute adherence to what makes Space Marines Space Marines - Guilliman's Codex Astartes - then they're cool by definition.
And blue is cool.

You can buy an entire Ultramarines 2nd Company for £600
[url]http://www.games-workshop.com/gws/catalog/productDetail.jsp?catId=cat1400006&prodId=prod50018a[/url]
This set contains 142 models; including: one metal Captain Sicarius, one multi-part plastic Command Squad, six multi-part plastic Tactical Squads, nine multi-part plastic Drop Pods, four multi-part plastic Terminators Squads, two multi-part plastic Dreadnoughts, eight multi-part plastic Assault Squads and one metal Vanguard Veterans squad.
To get an entire Chapter you'd need 10 or so of similar companies.

Space Marines were Space Marines long before Guilliman wrote his silly little book, Legions > Chapters.
[QUOTE=RayvenQ;17583842]I wouldn't really call losing your entire first company pwning them.[/QUOTE]
100 Veterans of the first company VS millions upon millions of Tyranids, who stopped the complete advancement of the entire fleet? I call that a damn victory, even if no one survived after the battle.

Love for Ultramarines.
So... whatever happened to an Imperial Guard, or whatever an ACTUAL ARMY was in 40K universe?
[QUOTE=gufu;17588312]So... whatever happened to an Imperial Guard, or whatever an ACTUAL ARMY was in 40K universe?[/QUOTE]
What? The Imperial Guard is a separate military organization from the Space Marines.
They all died in the time it took to come up with the idea of the film.
[QUOTE=Rofl my Waff;17588052]The blood ravens were created in Dawn of War so that's no surprise.[/QUOTE]
One guy made a Blood Ravens chapter, but Relic hijacked the name. I feel bad for the guy who spent all his time making an original idea only to have it sniped.
[QUOTE=Rofl my Waff;17588337]What? The Imperial Guard is a separate military organization from the Space Marines.[/QUOTE]
But I thought those were like... the regular army, since there are 50 to 500 of them for a single space marine.
[QUOTE=gufu;17588541]But I thought those were like... the regular army, since there are 50 to 500 of them for a single space marine.[/QUOTE]
Much more than 50 to 500 since there's only about a thousand marines per chapter and billions of Imperial Guardsmen.
But space marines are pretty much completely detached from the Imperial Guard and carry out their own separate missions.
Imperial Guard aren't also really a single unified army.
[QUOTE=RayvenQ;17588686]Imperial Guard aren't also really a single unified army.[/QUOTE]
I'd go so far as to say the only thing that is Universal about the Imperium of Man is the Inquisition.
Pffft. Really? The Ultramarines? Why not the Guard! They have more storey possibilities! THEY ARE COOLER!!!!! Well, Ya get wat ya get I guess.
Stop complaining. At least they're making one.
I really, really hope this is pulled off right. Warhammer 40K is a brilliant idea. Everything is there to be truly epic, but it's been let down so many times in the past by producers who never played it or understood it.
I pray for massively epic battles that make LoTR look like small skirmishes. I want monsters which will give me nightmares, and characters I give a damn about. And I want the Guard, even it is (battlefield-filling) cameo.

Mentality wise, certainly. That's the thing about 40k. It's so much more than plastic miniatures and dice. It's a galactic dictatorship, similar to the Catholic church during the medieval period, fighting an endless that must ultimately be lost. And the great thing is; even the heroes die. Being a main character does not make you invincible!
They shoulduv' used 'dem Grey Knights...
Or Chaos, am I the only one who likes Chaos?

because half the movie would be them fucking running away screaming.

waiting to see dreadnoughts smashing things to bits.
