Felix Antipodes Posted July 9, 2018 Share Posted July 9, 2018 As has been pointed out already, some Chapters are still producing Astartes as well as Primaris marines, so it would depend on the individual Chapter, and it's preferences, as to what that ratio was. My DIY Chapter, in the Dark Imperium era, raises both for purely logistical reasons. Operating on the fringes of Segmentum Tempestus, the are finding it difficult to maintain a steady supply of MK X armour, but still have an Armoury full of previous armour marks. At least in my headcanon ;-) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/348685-average-life-expectancy-of-a-battle-company-space-marine/page/2/#findComment-5120232 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ascanius Posted July 16, 2018 Share Posted July 16, 2018 One reason a chapter might recruit both types of Astartes is that, otherwise, wouldn't the gene-seed of fallen "original recipe" Space Marines be wasted?
