Default Which Chapter would make the jump

To a more well known and I guess I would say repected Chapter. For example the Black Templars, Space Wolves, Dark Angels, Blood Angels etc... Which sub chapter or chapter in general like example, the Relictors, Flesh Tearers, Iron Snakes, Blood Raven etc...could make themselves as well known as the Big Chapters I have already stated. If you can grasp what I am saying, which chapter could make the jump to be more well known and powerful as the main chapters. Crap I am repeating myself.............

Blood Ravens seem to be emmeshed in some pretty high level stuff as of DoW.

Iron Snakes would be nice to see go big. Blod ravens have soo much potential because of DoW. Well to a lot of players Flesh tearers are big already from the Index Astartes work on them.

In case you didnt know flesh tearers probably wont be big as they are a Blood Angel Successor Chapter so they have a codex for them technically speaking.

the reason these chapters are so big is because they have a big diference from most space marines, these minor chapters have just a color diference :S

one chapter has already done that

the Black Templars are from the Imperial Fist Legion
and i would say that they are more popular than their geneseed originator after all they have their own codex and the IF dont
the first BT dex stated the rules were for all IF succesors but the new one is BT exclusive.

ah but the Ultramarines HAVE a codex- Codex: Space Marines is essentially their codex, the whole idea is that the Ultramarine stick, relatively, rigidly to the Codex Astartes and so dont need a specialised codex to demonstrate any differences from other Codex Chapters.

I think that GW needs to do a codex where you see the different chapters (the original ones I mean) portrayed, and not made with the create your own chapter stuff with the main marine Dex. The White Scars, Salamanders, Imperial Fists, Raven Guard, and Iron Hands need their own Dex because they most definitely dont fight like the ultramarines and need their own recognition!

while i'd love to see the other 1st founding chapters get their own codicies, i doubt it'll ever happen...

instead though, i'd like to see a codex: cursed founding or similar with rules for things like radical chapters such as the relictors and some more background/rules for chapters like the legion of the damned, black dragons & lamenters!

cheers!

gotta be howling griffons. i love their colour. they have cool fluff both before and after armageddon and i love the colours.

raptors would be cool, since everyone likes their colours.

sons of guilliman are cool too.

and space sharks (ignore the name) have cool themes.

red scorpions are nice too, but FW did those.

EDIT: and of course, Mentor Legion (or just plain mentors). ive seen some really good Mentor armies and their links with the AD mech would be interesting to explore in more detail

I think they should bring back the rules for "WHITE SCARS", they really got screwed in my opinion. It is a well established
