Only librarian playable?
Is the libby for a single player campaign or is everyone playing one online?

Sounds like a waste of the Emprah's ressources if they keep sending full libby squads to die in Hulks

God I hope not

In a way it makes business sense if they have only one class upon release.

From what it said in the commentary trailer, it sounds as though one player plays as the Librarian, and the others fill in the other Marines.

It would also be like spitting on their target audience

Just guessing, we'll see what happens.
But imho it would not be a surprise if they release class dlc(s)

An entire squad of Librarians irks me.

Librarians are supposed to be a fairly rare individual, lending their much-needed powers to squads of regular marines.

What is it raven guard? or something similar. Who ever Arahman was trying to corrupt. That chapter has sqauds of them. This is death watch though. Death watch is made up of members from all active chapters. So it is logical that deathwatch only has a few librarians on hand. Its not like the other chapters will give them up or interrupt the training of them. Maybe deathwatch gets the wildcard psykers.

I was calling it Deathwatch.....but its Deathwing.

Nobody even suggested there would be an entire squad of Librarians. So, be un-irked. :P

Its the Dark Angels 1st company Deathwing squad, like you corrected yourself. You are right that some chapters do have a lot of psykers, so a single group of 4 isn't out of the realm of possibilities. I've never been a big fan of the Dark Angels, so not sure of their percentage of librarians compared to most chapters, but they certainly have a number of them.

Maybe the others aren't even librarians, just terminator marines as a body guard force. The Co-op could be all players are just a regular terminator marine, no librarian at all.

That's a negative Ghost Rider Host is Lib, the rest fill in as the Normal Marines.

The Dark Angels are the Crusaders who may be the most fervent in their search to annihilate Chaos. Their Primarch lies in a coma deep under the earth of their home planet while most chapters travel the stars, bringing the cold justice of the Emperor to all foes.
For the Lion.

Well the store page makes it seem that way.

5 different classes.

"There’s five classes all told, says Focus Home. The Librarian possesses psychic powers, while harnessing the hand-held ballistic anti-personnel Storm Bolter firearm. Heavy Weapon Support relies on assault cannons to best their Genestealer foes; while the Apothecary plays the medic role. Melee-Oriented Assault fighters go hands-on with assault claws, shields and power maces, and, lastly, Tactician Specialists can “support the team with a passive buff as well as other abilities, which is useful for controlling the swarms of Genestealers.” Naturally, success hinges on teamwork. "

Thought they were the ones looking to destroy their fallen brethren and tended to focus on that above other things? I could be wrong, like I said, I don't know that much about the chapter.

Tau are the future though!
