in your opinion, which space marine chapter do you consider the worst? not because of in game stats or anything, but because they, say, don't praise the emperor enough, or just aren't manly enough or something along those lines. In my opinion, it would be these fellas http://warhammer40k.wikia.com/wiki/Rainbow_Warriors
but who do you like the least?(inb4 "matt ward wrote this codex so theyre the worst")
and before yall say anything, this was my "inspiration" for making this thread

If that doesn't count then neither the Marines Malevolent or the Star Phantoms are doing a good job with the whole 'protect the citizens of the Imperium' thing... mainly 'cos they keep blowing them up.

If we include Chaos, the World Eaters they're the angry marines attempting to be serious. The only redeeming factor is Blood For The Blood God is an awesome warcry, second only to Waaaaaaghh.
Loyalists not sure however.

As far as chaos marines are concerned I'm not too fond of the Word Bearers. After all according to the horus heresy novels they are the main ones responsible for screwing everything up for everyone in the crusade. With the loyalist chapters I don't like the Doom Eagles as they are just too depressing with their "we are already dead so nothing matters" attitude. Who wants a bunch of whiny emo marines defending them.

I forgave the Space Sharks solely because the lameness of that name makes the already fabby Carcharodons (note spelling) even cooler.

Primarch Bloodcup chuckles as the other so-called Space Marine "Chapters" prattle about their prowess under combat.
Few have seen the majesty of a Legion Ponie descending from Flowerpots as they rain from the sky, or the beauty of a Lashoof equipped Legionnaire severing the head from an unsuspecting enemy.
Truly, all other factions of marines pale to my warriors.

At first, I thought you were saying they was a primarch named Bloodcup Chuckles, then I thought that's an odd name for Sanguinius. Guess I should read more thoroughly.

OOC:I'll throw in a special explanation of what I am doing here.
I'm pretending to be the Primarch of an elite Space Marine legion of My Little Ponies. Other DCMs are pretending to be the MOD Alpharius, adopting his avatar and custom tag.
I'm being a bit more insane than them.

UltraMarines  are the most over-rated Chapter in 40k
Inquisition need to take them out. If you have notice that most on the recent fallen marine came from ultramarines guilliman's geneseed... hmmmm I see a pattern

Maybe that has something to do with the fact that the majority of Space Marine chapters come from Ultramarine Geneseed?

You can thank that fact to the "Plan:Make All Space Marine Chapters Lame By Having the Pony Legions Replace Awesome Gene-Seeds with Vanilla Gene-Seeds that are Well Rounded But Don't Do Anything Really Special" plan.
