Why no Land Raider and Repulsor for Space Marines!?

[WarStalkeR]

Why Space Marines can't produce Land Raiders and Repulsors, just as Imperium can produce Baneblades!?

[G\[T]/]

Because of DLCs

[Nerivant]

1. Repulsors are Primaris tanks in M42, this game is still set in M41 as far as we can tell.
2. Because the IG need their tanks, instead the SM get terminators, and the ability to drop them all over the ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ map wherever theyre needed because deep striking is awesome.

lol no Land Raider ? no buy thx i play Warhammer Armageddon

Lack of transports is an issue with huge maps.. by the time reinforcements hit the front then that battle and the next three are over. WTB Rhinos.

Yeah forget land raiders where are my rhinos

[M. Anderson [6th GA]]

I don't know much about the Necrons or Orks, but both the IG and SM are missing several iconic vehicles. Hopefully we can see them added in the future, but I guess we'll wait and see.

[Naughty Mouse]

I do agree. Landraider is a must for Spacemarines. Also instad of the pushed artillery they should have giving it the whirlwind.
For flavor, they should have 4 types of terminator.
1st Regular Sturmbolter
2nd Flamer
3rd Assault kannon
4th Either Claws or hammer and shield.

I am not sure if this game can be moded, but I do hope it can, and that some people will add the missing units.

[M. Anderson [6th GA]]

I feel like being able to change the equipment/loadout of squads and vehicles for a cost would have been a great feature to add a bit more life to the game.

Weapon options unlock would be awesome (unlocks per every 5 levels for example)

Pretty sure it's not because at the end of the campaign for SM / IG, they make reference that Cadia had been destroyed by Chaos and Roboute Guilliman has been revived to lead the Imperium. That's practically borderlining M42, especially since there's early Repulsor prototypes that saw battle before M42.

So I do have to agree, it's probably gonna show up later as DLC or content.

The reality is it took 3 years to make the game with the content it has. We have to pick and choose where to spend time. Many good ideas are still waiting to be developed and expanding the unit list is something we'd love to do. In fact we are already working on it.

It's great to know you have it in your current goals to expand on the units available. Hopefully though free updates?

Means moar METUHL BAWKSES? Only Firaeveus Carron would disapprove!

I'd suggest Rhinos (Or Razorbacks), Chimeras and Trukks with transport ability for early Tier given some weapons after Research (as it's already with some units, e.g. Leman Russ/Predator). Maybe add Land Raider in later Tier for spaceys as well. And btw, where're the Thunder Hawks? Not that the other aircraft is no good, it's awesome, I just wondered... :)
