WHAT SPACE MARINES?

THEY SUCK!!!!!
Or at least have spacemarines as Heavy Armour,
I think the NS marines are more like the Imperial Guard (personally)

But I think that would annoy the people making all the Warhammer mods.

Gorge = termagaunt (the spitting attack would be fired from the 'gaunts rifle)
Skulk = Genestealer (old Space Hulk look)
Lerk = gargoyle
Fade = Lictor (they're practically the same now)
Onos = Carnifex (huge assaulter with a terrifying scream)

I say Imperial Guardsmen as the normal marines and Space Marines as heavy armor... or Tau Pathfinders as normal marine and Tau Fire Warriors as the heavy marines.
Edit: Nerd, I'd say a Genestealer is a bit big to be a Skulk. I would suggest it as a Fade.

Yah, genestealers are human sized. Not doggay sized.

u don't get it!! Im a warhammer 40,000 player. The space marine only had tacital armor (lightweight exosketelon armor) and termainator only has heavy armor!
this is space marine "tactial armor (lightweight exosketelon armor)

and THIS is a termainator (Heavy Armor)

u guys are so noobs to Warhammer 40,000

thats what i was saying:) termi armour for heavy
and yes the genestealer could work as a skulk, it can run on all its arms and legs, and when it attacks it flails wildly with its 4 arms!
carnifex would be scary as onos, and the scream deal is very similar
and the lurk could be a gargoyle

Nooo nooo nooo. Remember, space marines are genetically engineered. They are like 2 meters tall. Their armor is like ultra-armor compared to the flak crap the imp guards are stuck with. It has to be powered by hydraulics since it is too heavy for a space marine to move all by himself. It has automatic medication and everything. It is super-ultra armor. Terminator armor makes you practically invincible.

Anyway, I'd say Space Marine Scouts would be best as the NS marines, although I'm probably the only person who ever liked them in 40K.

I still say Guardsmen and Space Marines (Space Marine armor is **obscenity** tough anyways! It would work for a Heavy Marine!). Or Tau Pathfinders and Tau Fire warriors... hang on, I'll get pic...

Pathfinders

Fire Warriors
And don't
ever call me a n00b to WH40k. We never said anything that would make us seem like n00bs. Space Marines are plenty tough enough to be Heavy Armor marines. Watch your mouth. I would explain why Space Marines would work, by TychoCthulu already explained why.
Terminators
only have Heavy Terminator armor... Jesus what has our world come to... Terminator armor = almost certain invincibility.

sigh
its all relative
the spacemarine armour may be tough, but its still quite possible to take them out with the smaller tyranid foor soldiers, especially when the marine can't hit whats attacking him (jumping skulk or whatever its equivalent is)
i mean comeon, since when where imperial guard part of space hulk missions
terminator armour may be hell tough, but i'm quite sure you could still manage to beat a terminator squad in spacehulk with your genestealers
if you want to be literal about the translation from warhammer 40k to ns, imperial guard would be WWWWAAAAAAAYYYY underpowered, i mean the imperial guard had 3 good things going for it, first off was point cost, you literally overwhelmed your enemy,
2) tanks nuff said
3) army structure, a squad consists of command unit, and up to 6 infantry units (if i remember correctly), you could take two command hq's and have 10 heavy weapons squads and a shitload of special units
3.5)that wonderfull overwatch rule which was removed because gamesworkshop are **obscenity**:P
and yes, i'm an imperial guard player (was at any rate) they do not suit the indoor fighting in ns, and the lasgun is hardly an automatic weapon
and don't give me no, we could use hiveworld fighters cause they are still pinsy little conscripts who are used as cannon fodder and protection for the tanks:P

Im with Souris on the scout thing, looking at the maps, speed the guys walks at, the ease of death a scout is way better. Plus the default marine kinda looks like a SM scout anyway.
btw Souris when I played, I had 4 squads of scouts

20 odd needle rifles (that right? what the sniper rifle was before they called it a sniper rifle, v2 rules, not the 1 big book, back when the game came wirh orks and marines a rule book, a codex imperialis and a weapons guide)

Pah. WH40K started to suck as soon as they stopped using the Rogue Trader rules. Once they stopped having MKVI space marine armour, it sucked hard.
Space Marines are meant to look like wombles.
'nuff said.
