If space marines in game were to have the stats that reflected their fluff, how would those stats change from what we have now?

edit:

I've been told that 'movie space marines' are what their stats would look like, but I would like more input on the matter.

All depends on whose fluff you read.

Different authors. Different space marine power levels.

Dual wielding multilazors.

1+ save for all

**BrotherVord**

Using the codex as a true baseline... +1 to every stat across the board, and at least one more wound...terminators would have +t2 toughness and multiple wounds.

**DeathReaper**

Considering the armor in the RPG gives space marines +20% str, that would equate in a str of 6.

The other gear adds 10 or 20% to BS so BS would be a 5 or 6.

Depending on their skills they can have a +10% weapon skill so WS5.

They also would have 2 or 3 wounds.

that is not even mentioning their unnatural Str and Toughness stats.
