dont wanna sound like a fanboy on what i'm gonna spill. guardsmen will never see themselves don a suit of space marine armor. plus they live relatively short lives. playing a guard on an MMO would consist of being issued your gear and getting whipped by your cranky commissar. oh and uh no genetic modifications go into making guardsmen unless they PDF regiments they were recruited from practice genetic tampering. now being a space marine would make more sense because they do have a harder to earn rank structure. i do agree it'll be lame for everyone to be stomping around as marines. then again not every marine chapter gets along. so the depth in the difference of chapters is what will make it original and less repetitive. think of it, you'd have a lost and damned flame falcon marine being hunted by some zealous grey knights. there's just too much complexity for vigil games to consider and though it'll be awesome for devout fans it wont be as satisfying as the table game.
