More then a hundred, or more then a thousand, one of those two. And no, there is no final list of all chapters in the Imperium, with all the s**t going on about super-secret tree house chapters or those lost to the warp.

_MS_ How many chapters are in the space marines ?
chapters (first ones ever to be greated, example Dark Angels, Blood Angels, etc.) (21, according to the fluff, it claims that there are 3 chapters that records
we´re removed/gone missing.
Many rumours lies around, but never been confirmed.)
and about 134 chapters recorded (either in WD, Novels or otherwise only knowed by names), but this list quite old, so it should be around 200-300 recorded chapters so far.wash_away Lt. Brookman wash_away erm, I know my templar codex doesn't need a marine codex. because the only marine codex I have has the crimson fist's on the cover confused Old codex, buy the new one immediately!
I play templar, I don't need the new codex. Mine's newer then theres 3nodding
On the new codex (Ultramarines with Marneus Galgar batteling agains the Tyranids) there are many new updates for certain units and characters,
such as 1 Dreadnought can be a "Venerable", two points calculation system
(IE: plasma pistol 15/10 (first points value for models with more then 1 wound/second points value for models with only 1 wound.),
and that you can count a commander with a chaplain and a librerian attached to command squad as ONE HQ choice.
You must posses a copy of new space marine codex in order to play with
the Black Templars.

Quote: No, that codex you hold in your hands (the one with the Crimson Fists on the cover) is outdated.

but my codex has all the stat's information and everything, if you havn't looked at it it's not like armagedon codex. this is it's own full fledged stat's on all unit's codex. it has what I can put in a tac squad, the updated armoury, that dreadnought info. all up dated for the templar's.

That´s an interesting notion. neutral
Need to check on that one myself.
Oh by the way, a player at the GW-shop I visit on regular basis gave an
interesting insight:
He claims/says that terminators (other then sergeants) could swap theyr
power fists to power-swords and etc, due to the fact that they posses
terminator honours, which is a common item to use to gain access to the
space marine armoury.
Can somebody veteranic/wiser clarify if such claimend is true or false?
I´m itching on the future plan to swap atleast one squads power-fists to power-swords or atleast do that to the terminator-command squad. twisted

No, they can't do that.
They can replace their ranged weapons for + points, but not their powerfists.

Does anyone else think the 4 commanders for 2 Hq choices is stupid? You'd have to be using the commanders for multiple coompanies fluff-wise and this simply doesn't make sense.
Also Terminators can opt to "turn off" their powerfists and attack like normal marines, right? otherwise "furious assult" would be totally useless for them.

No 4 commanders would make sense, although 4 3 wound characters wouldnt ^^. A Commander has his second in command and all that bolony. At any rate, Afaik they cannot "turn" off their powerfist, but in theory, every model has a close combat weapon (which does nothing) which in theory could be used instead of powerfists. Don't quote me on that though. And why wouldn furious charge be useful, it would be less useful, seeing as you will get +1 str on the charge only instead of +1 str and + 1Ini, but you still raise your strength to 9. Besides, SM isnt the only army out there, CSM, which have the same option -could- be given daemon strength aswell, and in that combo, we can start insta killing toughness 5, which is allot more useful.
