Sorry, to start; 'codexes' isn't a word, and I don't plan to use it. If that narks anyone, I do apologise, but there's only so much torturing of the language I'm prepared to take.
Anyway, something that strikes me as very odd is that the non-codex marines (DA, BA and now Chaos) have five-man blocks and their weapons options are dependent on these - while Codex SM, exemplified by the Ultramarines, the most Codex it is possible to be, can take min-max squads, eight-man squads, six-man las-plas squads etc.
Does it strike anyone else as *a bit silly* that the only way to field a non-codex SM army (of either flavour) is to use Codex SM?
This is why I'm currently working on a Chaos list, using Codex SM (and no demons, unfortunately!)
(I know nothing about Space Wolves BTW, no idea how they fit into this.)
:cyclops:
