Better than tacticals, not as good as terminators.
Hopefully we'll see a new terminator sprue as well.

So this is why Marine bolters became rend -0, the "new, and I hope you didnt spend money on normal marines lately" marines have the correct stat bolters. Excuse me, cawl pattern bolters.

Grenade stat, nice!
That said, I expected the two wounds. Looks like they're just slightly tougher Marines for a cost bump. Looks like they'll be cheaper than Rubric Marines though (power 6 to the Rubric's 8 for 5 models).
Power 4 or 5 for a tactical squad perhaps?

I'm going to ignore the new background and -maybe- use NuMarines rues for regular Marines. And depending on the contents of the starter set I might buid the few SM kill teams or combat patrol forces I want to do (someday  ) with them instead of tru-scaling regular ones. They'll still be regular old Astartas, "simply" being superhumanly strong/fast/resilient with *just* their rgular gene modification Such a stupid idea, hey, they are EVEN SUPERER Marines. The Homo Sapiens Novus project should have stayed a mysterious possiblity, not shoved down throats to sell updated Marine kits without making people angry.

snark aside, I'd say they have it for balance reasons more than buffinf a new unit who could have just gotten -2 rend bolters if regular bolters were a -1...

It's probably not news (maybe something I missed previously) but it looks like grenades are back to having a range and proper stats instead of being CC bonuses.

Grenades are now... Grenades! Yaaaaaaaay!
The full circle has now been completed. From Chaos Warriors in the old fantasy to Space Marines in 40k. From Space Marines in 40k to Stormcast Eternals in AoS, and now, Stormcast Eternals converted into Primary Marines in 40k again!
Now we can ascend to Godhood just like in Full Metal Alchemist!

Well they dont seem to have any options. so it kinda seems like power rating take into account overall or average loadouts making quick play a little easier.

News to me - I expected them to vanish - interesting.... you could throw krak grenades in 6th/7th IIRC.
So no bolt pistol upgrade either.

*ABRACADABRA* *POOF*
My normal marines just because Primaris Marines. I'll just have to get some 32mm base inserts to make them play in game like they should have according to the fluff. I'll still buy probably a squad or two depending on the weapons loadouts for skirmish game and RPG purposes though. There was no reason to make them in game a separate stat line. They just should have introduced these just like they did the 3rd edition plastic kit as an update to the look of the models without fundamentally cranking them up to 11 compared with Adeptus Bargain Astartes.

I would point out before you chuckle too hard that your post ONLY applies to the one single squad entry shown so far. I have zero doubt that GW will roll otu devastator, assault marine, and terminator equivalents over the next year.

Agree. Even if the helmet is not my favourite, the models and weapons look awesome. I'm totally buy a box or two to run as "Not-NewMarines" in my Inquisition detachment with Celestine, Greyfax and Tempestus Scions.

Nope, thanks for the link. I like the new look (except maybe a little bit with the Chun Li thunder thighs...) In the RPG, "legion"/marine weapons were always superior to the normal human equivalents but on the tabletop they were identical except for visual flourishes like rabbit's feet or decorations. Now, they look like how they (used to since the license expired) act.

Rubrics had mortal wound battery in it though which skews a bit. Though -2 AP bolters also!
