Does this mean no special amry lsits and stuff for the various legions?
If so, I have to disagree a bit but otherwise this sounds fine except:
I cannot see why chaos marines should not have heavy support!
I am aware that chaos hordes with the daemons and stuff would be much too
wild with efficient long range firepower, but chaos space marines are still
every bit as tactically flexible and organized as loyalist space marines,
and surely would recognize the need for ranged weapons too.
Virtually every chaos source I have read does not state the upon betraying
the emeperor a marine is forced to discard all heavy weapons and tactical
knowledge and throw himself at a land raider armed only with bolter and
chainsword.
I agree that heavy support should be limited to certain legions (like the
emperors children (noise marines), the iron warriors and the alpha legion
perhaps) and should not be common place. but they would definately have such
equipment, especially since they lack such things as land speeders,
razorbacks etc.

I would rather see real company cards, chaos marines are sufficiently
motivated to fight without primarchs, some primarchs are dead, and
besides...how can a primarch participate in EVERY battle a chaos legion
fights

All good here
