Marines are perfectly capable of operating a LRBT, but modifications would probably be made for comfort.

Like heated seats, televisions in the back seat for the initiates and space marine sized cup holders?

**Grey Templar**

don't forget the Keg cooler!

**Kanluwen**

Did they ever actually say it was full Marines operating the Leman Russes of the Space Wolves?

Because the statline was the same as a standard Guard Russ, as far as I recall.

**Grey Templar**

Well duh....the BS was 3 because of the Keg

**Devastator**

and it was lemun russ

You know, funny I stumbled across this, as for my IW army I just wrote some house rules for a Warsmith.

I agree, and really I've vented my hate for the current army book so many times I'll just cut to the chase. Chaos is Chaotic and should have TONS of options for a army.

Maybe after GW makes a Dark Eldar book, if that ever happens.

maybe with the chaotic options you should have as a chaos player they just couldn't fit it all into one codex? =)

It's more like when they gave a ton of options, people found ridiculous ways to abuse them.

**Cambak**

Chaos is Chaos not Orks. Duh.

**candy.man**

So does that mean speech impaired green skins are the only ones smart enough to loot imperial vehicles?

**Kanluwen**

Notice: Orks only get things to work through sheer belief.

Traitors still need to perform maintenance!

I could certainly see Chaos getting a Dreadclaw entry in the next Codex. I doubt it'd work the same as a Drop Pod, but it'd still be a nice, fluffy addition (World Eaters are renowned for their drop assaults...but have no drop pods?).

Though in general, I'd like to see less stolen Imperial tech and more Daemonically-powered tech. Different types of Daemonic Possession for vehicles; more Daemonic tanks other than the Defiler (fast vehicles, heavy, lumbering vehicles, etc); weapons using warp energy; blasphemous icons that can be planted on terrain/objectives to provide bonuses for the Chaos forces and penalties for the enemy; that sort of thing. The return of Daemonic Gifts would make me happy as well, but they'd have to be modified for balance.
