They are -not- ultramarines.

They are an, as of yet, unnamed chapter. (And likely never will be).

[CupCupBaconBox]

Yeah right xD

I approve.

They are the chapter whose Chapter-planet is Gladius.
If you find anything in the literature about them, please share with us.

In the game they are just not named. Play them as the successor of your favourite chapter :)

Ultramarine off-shoot chapter is my guess.

This is correct.

This is correct.

Many new chapters were off-shoots of the Ultramarines because they had the lowest mutation rates... Just sayin'

It's because the Ultramarines got sidetracked from the Siege of Terra and came out the other side of teh Horus Herasy with the largest number of remaining troops. So the Legions got broken down to chapters there were more Ultramarine successors, and there gene-seed has continued to make up a large amount of the total Space Marine gene-seed availalbe.

The models are generic. Only the Captain is Ultramarine inspired. However, the Galea helmet was used by many Legions before the Heresy so it is possible to find it anywhere.

Yes, I know, also their geneseed was deemed to have the highest purity according to the Adeptus Mechanicus...

It would be cool if the next DLC was about adding some flavor to Astra Militarum and/or Space Marines, like different chapter/regiment cosmetics.

No. We still need Chaos Daemons and other factions. Space Marines feature too much in the lore and games, so other factions need some love.

There are good quality mods that do this for the Marines already. Check out Chapters of the Imperium for example.

And yet the CAPTAIN character model, the cutscenes and even the box art show them as the Ultramarines, you can claim they're meant to be a "nobody" chapter but there's only ONE chapter that uses the very helmet accessory for their captains!
Edit: oh and let's not forget the dialog pieces mention the Ultramarine's Primarch as well. If they WANTED to go with a nobody chapter, DON'T USE ♥♥♥♥ that makes them standout as an already established chapter, look at what the Blood Ravens did, nobody knew about them until Dawn of War brought them into the canon.
