I own a full salamanders army from some Armageddon deal (3d edition). All infantry assembled with a base coat of paint and the predator sprayed green too... rhino and land raider unassembled. The plastic wrap is still on the landraider box. Played about 6 Combat Patrols vs. my bro's Alaitoc Eldar and now steadly slip in these models (along with the 5 or so necrons I have) for Cyberpunk 203x.

You are not free whose liberty is won by the rigour of other, more righteous souls. Your are merely protected. Your freedom is parasitic, you suck the honourable man dry and offer nothing in return. You who have enjoyed freedom, who have done nothing to earn it, your time has come. This time you will stand alone and fight for yourselves. Now you will pay for your freedom in the currency of honest toil and human blood.

Did some as "major" space marine army:

- Black Templars
- Salamanders
- Raven Guard
- Iron Hands
- (space wolves)

and some as "minor" ??
based on:
+ Dark Angels
+ White Scars ( 5th ed )
+ Codex 4th ed ( traits )
+ Codex 3rd ed

Still, the marines from codex 3rd ed have the numbers on their side in comparision...

So, if major means "following official schemes and only using the chapter with the name of the former Legion/40k codex",
then I say 4 space marine armies.

I don't own ANY of GW's named SM armies.

My SM army is modelled on my other hobby - the 501st, and certain characters are modelled up as fellow members.

I've never really liked any of the chapters - but then I still prefer the mindwiped and reprogrammed psychotic berserkers over the knightly crusading orders.

I'm OVER 50 (and so far over everyone's BS, too).
Old enough to know better, young enough to not give a ****.

That is not dead which can eternal lie ...

... and yet, with strange aeons, even death may die.

Ultramarines - First army I ever got.

Black Tempalrs - Still under construction, and not actually a Black Templar army, just uses them as the archetype. It's DIY Black Templars really, representing a coalition of three Chapters (Golden Lions, Iron Knights, Storm Riders).

Deathwatch - Yes, an army with no rules, yet I have a complete Deathwatch army.

Imperial Fists all the way. I started Dark Angels, but they are just to bland. I love the way the Fists look on the table, yellow against the green board is worth the hours to paint them. I wish I had it in me to do another chapter, but I just don't think I could do it and do 'nids, which I can't wait to see in Jan.

Imperial Fists.

I like most of the fluff for them as a chapter, as they represent my own stubbornness and tenacity.

Plus, I mean, Yellow Marines. Come on.

Some people play to win, some people play for fun. Me? I play to kill toy soldiers.

Imperial fists too. The bright yellow chapter is amazing. The thing I really like is how they look on the table top. So many people have dark colored armies they really contrast.

Chaos Space Marines are my main (Deathguard/Nurgle).

I voted for other, I have a DIY 'Chapter' of 'Chaos' Space Marines. Just using the SM rules.

This is a little story about four people named Everybody, Somebody, Anybody, and Nobody.
There was an important job to be done and Everybody was sure that Somebody would do it.
Anybody could have done it, but Nobody did it.
Somebody got angry about that because it was Everybody's job.
Everybody thought that Anybody could do it, but Nobody realized that Everybody wouldn't do it.
It ended up that Everybody blamed Somebody when Nobody did what Anybody could have done.

Originally I had a tac squad painted as Ultramarines and some termies painted as BTs. I repainted the tac squad as Imperial Fists (though they look aweful). I then painted all my other marines as Blood Ravens.

Gordo Phreshmex, a guy at my FLGS has a pretty reasonable amount of Rainbow Warriors.

Being naturally belligerant I love the Ultramarines due to the fact that all the elitist turbo dorks get so offended by them. As a result I vow i shall never play anyone else!

We are arming Syrian rebels who support ISIS, who is fighting Iran, who is fighting Iraq who we also support against ISIS, while fighting Kurds who we support while they are fighting Syrian rebels.

I collect Black Templars and Dark Angels.

I collect no-codex because I think that space marines are awesome, but there are too many ultrasmurf players, so I went for non-codex to distance myself

also, who doesn't want an army of termies?

Oh Yes, Over here! i have about half a company of Rainbow Warriors - one of the first 12 chapters ever named by GW.

I test my memory by trying to remember the other twelve - Ultramarines, White Scars, Crimson Fists, Space Wolves, Iron Hands, Silver Skulls, Dark Angels, Blood Angels, Blood Drinkers, Flesh Tearers, and Flesh Eaters (who?) ,

Hey, I did it - I remembered them all. Only collect Rainbow Warriors though
