I think GW are leaving an option for Chaos to have Primaris far into the future. Spoiler Alert:
In Dark Imperium Cawl inferior suggested using the fallen 9 legions and the two failed legions to be made into Primaris Chapters and Girlyman said np, and assumes that Cawl will continue research on that. So when things become stale with the lore, I think GW are giving themselves an option written into the lore to have new CSM, and it can easily be done, Chaos could invade Mars and steal the gene-tech, As a CSM player I don't know about that, but Primaris having 2 wounds and 2 attacks etc. Does annoy me, as we should be somewhat on a level playing ground. What are peoples opinion on that, because the Alpha legion and Omegon did steal the Primarch Project from Diliverence and the Raven Guard? And GW have learned that making new armies and models gives them the most money.

Maybe, but I nope not. CSM have Plague Marines, Berserkers, Rubric Marines and Noise Marines. Rather than create a whole new kind of Chaos Marine, I'd rather see these 4 get updated rules to make them on par with Primaris Marines -

Yeah, I agree, because CSM have been gifted by the gods so GW can easily up their stats but I don't think they will when in the future they can make new models etc.

Delving into the novel fiction here but couldn't they just make the CSM Primaris equivalent the Daemonculaba rather than just turned primaris marines?
The Imperium get their genetically enchanced super marines bred since the great crusade, Chaos get mutated warp-enhanced Marines?

No they haven't, the enhanced marines were made during the horus heresy which were ended in Deliverance lost, when Omega stole the Primarch project, Cawl had to create completely new marines from the Emperors notes, which came after Deliverance. The Alpha legion has kept the Primarch proect for 10,000 years and have either not bothered to create more or they didn't have anyone like Cawl, to be able to create primaris or an enhanced CSM, and the 10,000 years has proven that. Unless they have and are waiting to use them.

Isn't there a Chaos Character whose all about the knowledge of Space Marines. Oh yeah Fabius Bile. Chaos have had someone like Cawl since before Cawl was shoved in.

yeah but chaos isnlt exactly one big happy family. the alpha legion may not want him to have that data, or the alpha legion may have given it to him already and thats where his primarch cloning came from

Plague Marines and Rubrics just got flashy new models and Berserkers and Noise marines could use the update. DG just got updated and T-sons codex is also coming very soon. Now seems as as good at time as any to update the "Cult" marines to be tougher, or "blessed" in some way that makes them on par with Primaris Marines. Plague Marines are T5 with Resilience ( FNP) and already have models as big as Primaris Rubrics, I'm sure will get some bonus, like reroll 1s for saving throws or something. Rubrics are also bigger than regular Marines Berserkers would likely just get lots of attacks and str Noise Marines are actually a good candidate for 2W as they might actually delight in the pain of the first wound. Although I think Emperors Children already get a 6+ Resistance save, so we'll have to wait and see. In any case, the Cult marines should be the "Primaris" of Chaos, with models to match. -

There is a lot more justification for Chaos Primaris that there is for Imperial Primaris, Fabulous Bill, Warp shenanigans etc.
Or ..... Cawl... the greatest mary sue in allllll of 40k's history, even Draigo hasnt got anything on this guy!.

All chaos marines will be exchanged with Primaris models, it just takes time for GW to make the moulds, which is a significant and expensive undertaking when it comes to injection moulded plastics. Rubrics and Plague Marines are already primaris models, meaning that their scale blends well with next to primaris marine models. But CSM models has not been brought along with the scale creep, so they will get new sprues. In time even 30k will get primaris models I believe. The fluff can always be retconned to suit.

If you read the fluff behind Biles supermarines they've always been basically Primaris Marines, just a little unstable.
But personally I hope we'll see renegade Primaris at least in the background. So far Primaris are much too perfect for 40K, making every Marine (and Primarch!) before them appear stupid.

Cawl wasn't shoved in, he's been in the lore since the Deliverance lost novel which was in 2011, and he was creating new marines in that book. And Cawl isn't a Mary Sue, he's gotten all his inventions because he has been using forbidden technology through the years and Girlyman is allowing him to still use those, plus he is using xenos tech.

Right he just ignores the rules of his faction, gets away with breaking entrenched rules, goes against the direction of the entire setting and does something that nobody else including the pre existing expert managed.
Nope. Not a Mary Sue at all.

Wrong, in the Mechanicum novel Koriel Zeth used forbidden technology to create the Akashic Reader, tonnes of forge masters have and have kept it secret.

Having just read deliverance lost, that is so untrue I have no idea where to start....
You may not agree with how I described him, but saying he was in a book he was not in is just bad.

Corax got the Primarch project from the Emperor in which Cawl and Corax's Apothecary worked on. They realised that the Emperor could have created better marines, like little Primarchs, where they didn't need to use geneseed, they created a few but Omegon tainted them and then stole the Primarch project so start there. Cawl using forbidden technology is new lore its in Dark Imperium.

Corax got the primarch project from a lab with the info the emp gave him, he returned with it to deliverence, he got his apothecary and a magos that IS NOT CAWL, why are you making this up dude? have you actually read the book ?

He waltzes in because Girlyman allows him to research new technology. The only people with a problem with Cawl don't actually know the lore. I've seen the whole backlash where people think he just suddenly popped out of nowhere and that Primaris marines are not possible in the lore.

I know the lore. I suspect very much you're lying about the one point you can make that indicates Cawl didn't pop up from nowhere like a Mary Sue.
Cawl is a bad character made by bad writing because he was only made to push models. You can argue against that all you like but without any evidence you're just repeating an opinion with no backup or reasoning except to be the cool anti majority guy.

I know the lore, clearly better than you do, he did just waltz in from nowhere, Cawl did not exist at all in any way shape or form prior to the gathering storm series, introducing new characters is fine as long as it fits within the setting, throwing a captain picard into the 40k universe wouldnt work, and throwing a mechanicum Arch Magos that is better at tech than anyone else that has ever existed in the Imperium, including the creator of the marines themselves, doesnt fit.
Primaris are possible in the lore, but not from some chump who was shoe horned into the fluff with no explanation or backstory.
