Except they have only released one Chapter-neutral model so far. And a divisive one at that. Had they led off with the Impulsor or Eliminators, I would agree here.
For the non-Chapter specific units they've dropped a codex, and on pre-order we have the Invictor, Primaris Lieutenant and the Primaris Captain and Librarian in Phobos Armour.
Only the Codex and the Invictor are actually new though.

Did anyone complain about the new Abaddon? I don't recall seeing complaints about him on dakka but it's possible I missed some. And if chaos players can't find anything to complain about in a release then I suspect no one can...

GW" MONEY.... erm i meant TOO MANY OPTIONS (to resell your army to you again by disalowing former units)! Do you want specific tyranid fighiting Primaris? Even a new sabotage lieutnant!"

No you are wrong because reinforcement points and etc do not effect army rules. The game rules are NOT designed on a conditional passive state,
It's similar to how Chapter Master strat worked with a specilist detachment. You meet the condition for combat doctrines when you make your army.
once this is met, it no longer needs to be maintained. The stratagem for an assassin is past the timing window for the rules to even matter.
it is during deployment and has no bearing on the "army list" you just get a free assassin (or for RF points).
The other way is how Chaos Players rules break if you take daemon units but if you summon them with RF you don't care.

Where did they get their info though?
They said things like “probably going to be” and “this isn’t like one book, it’s like 8 books” but I didn’t hear mention of that being definitive, just the way people chat. But do they have insider knowledge for some reason?
(Also, the Codex and 6 supplements makes 7, so it would technically be one more supplement there..)

Is the assasin part of your army
operative requisition sanctioned
Use this strategum during deployment.
Add One Offico Assassinorum unit of your choice to your army.
the strategum tells you it's part of your army.
if you have a battleforged army, units only benefit from this bonus if every unit from your army has this ability(excluding SERVITOR and UNALIGNED units).
Do assasins have combat doctrines NO
Are assasins UNALIGNED NO
Are they part of your army YES
So you now have a model that does not have the ability in your army .
Hence No body gets doctrines.

True, but in terms of models even GW themselves said were most clamored for, the Impulsor was at the top of the list for SM units (Dedicated Transport), as well as the Eliminators (dedicated anti-tank). They may have even used the word "finally".

I can find posts bashing the impulsor. granted, like most of the primaris range it's the useal primaris are aweful and none of their units can possiably be good looking and any that are useful is clear proof oif GW's neferous plan to burn my old marine minis #tinfoilhat crap
I mean frankly I think the Impulsor looks GREAT, but I think looked at in person the repulsor tank also isn't as bad as some people claim and the gun placement is even.. sensable.
I mean you have your big turreted gun, a heavy bolter covering the front, and then the rear and sides each have a anti-infantry weapon. it's just.... 8th edition doesn't have firing arcs for tanks

Impulsor looks far better than the exterminator and repulsor. Mostly because it looks like an awesome concept both in real deployment and overall look.
I adore the model, except the Invictius makes me laugh.

To me the Invictus is a call back to the original STC that humanity would have had. Pre-Dark Ages. We would"t have much use for an armoured coffin carrier but a piloted Mech? Sure.

the codex also notes that it plugs into the marines armor and interacts with it so chances are the majority of the controls are being made by DNI, the controls we can see are proably just to control the stubbers or something

it si a little odd especially given that this new codex has pushed to make marines better and better at melee. right now even our basic primaris troops are alright at melee but having a amazing unit on hand to really push it to the next level'd be nice

I emailed the FAQ team to (politely) ask for just that and honestly encourage others to do the same.
We have upgrade sprues, might as well let us use them on more stuff.

I did - he's far too big. For some reason they released the 3-up rather than the normal model, which would've been smaller than the old one, as nature intended.

Their helmets are equipped with vox AMPLIFIERS. They don't do quiet. They do loud. Like screaming at your enemy until they piss themselves type combat. Chainswords would definitely add into that.
I still think the following model is the coolest though. I might need to give that knife arm to a Reiver.
(I just had a FANTASTIC idea. I am going to use my extra Reivers to make even MORE Incursors!)
