They still have way less and Ultramarines having all those push it over the edge.

You have 4 and Ultramarines have 6.

Salamanders, Raven Guard, Imperial Fists and White Scars each have 1. Iron Hands have 0.

Yes, that's dreadfully unfair for you.

As for changeable chapter tactics, if you're comfortable with chapter tactics that don't match how your models are painted then why aren't you pulling your green wing from C:SM and getting all of the goodies that you're complaining about?

One has 4 and one has 10. Kind of is unfair. That's before you start looking at whose useful or Forgeworld. Because I don't play greenwing...

You can't seriously tell me SM gets way more than they should. All you have to do is look at how much they get that nobody else does for no reason.

Your chapter has four. Five other first founding chapters have one or zero. Those 10 characters are distributed across five different chapters. Really not seeing the unfairness here (except for Iron Hands players). You have as many characters as Salamanders, Raven Guard, Imperial Fists and White Scars combined.

If you don't use green wing then why the complaints that you don't get units which aren't fluffy for Deathwing and Ravenwing? You chose to play a snowflake chapter so you got access to unique stuff but lost access to some of the C:SM stuff. That's how it works.

I don't get it - you seem not to care about fluffy distinctions (changing chapter tactics, using characters regardless of which chapter they belong to) so why aren't you just including C:SM stuff in your army since it's trivially easy to do so now?

I don't need to play an army to find things unfair. If every unit in the IG codex doubled in price then I can see that's unfair even though I don't actually play them.

As a Black Templars player, I only have access to 3 Special Characters. I demand that we axe one from the Dark Angels to compensate!

Oh, and kill all the Librarians too while we're at it.

Take Asmodai. Makes literally no difference.

A lot of what has been said here isn't quite accurate. Codex's aren't meant to be a limiting factor in an army, they are just a set of rules for playing the game. Rather than reproduce the same rules over 4 'dexs, they have separated them into clearly identifiable factions (not defending the decision, btw).

If you want sternguard/stormravens/centurions in your dark angels army, buy them, paint them dark green, and use the allies/unbound rules to make it playable. It might be a clumsy approach for some, but that was how it was intended to work (and help sell more sm codices).
