2019 Space Marine Codex previews Successor Chapter Traits
Games Workshop via Warhammer Community just previewed the upcoming Successor Chapter traits to be revealed in the new 2019 Space Marine Codex.
Of particular note, Scythes of the Emperor trait suggestions:
A direct quote of their reasoning:
Alternatively, if you want to go for a more narrative spin, you can base your choice of tactics on your Chapter’s history in the lore (or one you’ve created for them). The Scythes of the Emperor, for example, were nearly annihilated by Hive Fleet Kraken during the Second Tyrannic War and swore vengeance against them. Preferred Enemy (choosing Tyranids as the keyword) would, therefore, be a great option, as would Indomitable for the stoic determination they showed when faced with the numberless hordes of Tyranids.

Interesting for sure and I look forward to the new codex for the latest edition of Warhammer 40k, what are your thoughts my fellow Sothans?
Nice to know that Games Workshop is caring for us! We may be small, but the Scythes shall never die! For Sotha!
For Sotha Brother! An article discussing chapter traits is forthcoming :) Thanks for your comment!
Finally got bored with painting ultramarines and looking for new paint scheme. Loved the Sotha story n giants coffin so have decided to start a small scythe army. Love the lore and really looking forward to my new army.
Oh man, thats great news – hit me up so I can add you guys to the Gallery :)
