Hmm. Odd that no part of either Fists tactic made it to the Successor Tactics, everyone else got a piece of their CT into the list.
A couple sort of interesting combinations, but overall I think the standard CTs are better constructed.

Well, the Chaplain will need to be in place first as the Littanies are done at start of turn. He can't just deepstrike in and assist.

All Gravis went up to three wounds (and Agressors to 3 attacks) with no points change. That's huge, I'm going to field at least 3 bolter/plasma Inceptors + 3 boltstorm Agressors.
Plus, Chaplains seem to pair nicely with Boltstorm Agressors. +1 to wound prayer, +1 to hit prayer, +2 to charge prayer... It's a shame none of them gives a defensive boost.
But the half-damage Stratagem (for 1 CP) is also a godsend for them.

'Ere We Go is the old BT Chapter Tactic except better. Complaining that BT get to "steal" this capacity when Orks did the same thing is rank hypocricsy.

Aggressors got a massive boost. It's honestly scary what they will be able to do. Thank goodness they can't ride in the cheap transports. Glad I have 12 of the guys because they're gonna see a lot of use. One block of six can be heavily boosted and have that buff to make them unable to be wounded on a 1,2,3 will be massive levels of durability on a t5 3 wound platform.

Would have to have multiple chaplains, as a Chaplain can only chant one at a time.

How is my argument "questionable". The complaint was that Black Templars had somehow "stolen" Orks' ability to do Deep Strike charges reliably. The thing is Orks already stole that from Black Templars in the first place anyway. I think that argument is bunk (you don't "steal" rerolls to charge ranges and + to charge distance in 8th edition, a bunch of stuff has it), but even if I didn't reject the premise the argument is bunk.

So with the +1 wounds, I guess this confirms Gravis are the new Terminators for Primaris then?

Not quite, the lack of invulnerable save, varied weapon load-out including dedicated Close Combat load-out, not carrying heavy weapons on a single arm with a close combat weapon on the other and the inability to deep strike means they are not terminator replacements yet. I personally think they will update terminators personally to primaris size and aggressors will be more like a centurion.
Terminators are far too iconic to be squatted, I could be wrong but it is so prevalent throughout the law, i don’t think it will be sacked off for gravis armour.
