They attack quite often regardless to the fallen, the fallen just have priority. Rather odd that the Wolves would hate them considering Russ and Jonson were friends.
Well Russ n Johnson had their feuds, They fought across the ruins of a newly compliant world for several days, Russ realised the stupidity of their brawl stopped fighting and started laughing and Johnson snuck up behind him and knocked him out, typical DA backdoor loving trick

Helpful Sophotect

I dislike Ultramarines and Imperial Fists.
Only one vote so... Ultramarine. I think they represent "too much " the norm, it's almost ridiculous.

I like all the Loyalists for one reason or another but if I had to choose a duffer, it'd be the Iron Hands. I think it was the way the elite Morlocks got ganked in Fulgrim - not their proudest moment.
Yeah, it was a a shame to see the "elite" of a chapter neutered without even trying. The entire chapter of the Hands came out looking pretty weak, although in all I still liked them because I generally find that most of the actual story pieces make the Traitor Primarches look stupid (loyal one second then an eldar, daemon, speck of dust-tell, whatever tells them to turn and they do) and anyone who didn't fall for that is pretty decent.
People seem to hate White Scars for being Mongols...okay, but something other than WASPs had to make it off Terra, didn't they? How many non-whites are there in 40k? Jeez, if anyone's people were still going to be messing people up thousands of years in the future, it would be Genghis Khan.

I have pity for the ultrasmurfs, most of there silly fluff comes from the SM Codex. The Ultramarine novels were actually pretty good.
White Scars is just silly and I actually like the mongols. Portraying them as a bunch of barbarians on bikes offends me. (The Mongolian Empire was more advanced than most of the people conquered)

Getting augmetic implants after being made into an Astartes is wasteful. Gene-seed or not, the augmetic will be no more or less powerful, and would only increase their strength by so much. Put these rare enhancements on a human, and they become beastly. However, once their epic astartes arms are cut off for replacement, they simply decompose.
Plus I've always found them bland and boring. "We Hate Weakness" makes them seem cynical.

I really dont understand that Ultramarines hate.
They are fine guys intheir novels, their stand in the Horus Heresy is fine and they do something good for humantiy and act smart.
What is worong about that, just that they are seen often?

With every new bit of fluff, they proceed to get dumber and dumber.
