I have a modest sized SW army, working it up. Is the SM Tac Marines kit in this box pretty generic? I want to buy the kit for the rules and the tau, and the marines would be great to add to my SW crew. But I don't want them if they're Utra or BA or something, I want them only if they're easily convertible to SWwith a few SW bits. Anyone? Thanks!

AFAIK it's the standard Space Marine Tactical Squad kit. So, pretty generic and probably easily convertible to SW Grey Hunters or something.

No, it's not the standard Tac Squad box if you look at it. It's new frames, but I haven't seen, taking a look at the sculpts, too much that declares chapter alleigance short of the shoulderpads.
