I am considering making a non-battle sister space marine female for my wip army, and modeling it after a friend of mine. Would the astartes have a female in their ranks?Thoughts on a female space marine? wahmmer 40k?
Don't get me started.
No, there are no female Space Marines, only "Sisters Of Battle", although it is a 100% fact that Space Marines do not have genitals; I once (three times actually) caused an outraged response on one or two Warhammer forums by pointing out how the unrelentingly grimdark bleakness of the 40K background story would make it highly improbable that anyone would ever become a Space Marine without first having their dangly bits chopped off since it would just be a weak spot and everyone knows they don't actually do anything with it since all they do all day is sing monotonous chants while waiting for the next battle.
But anyway, if you go by the official Games Workshop 40K fluff, no there are no female Space Marines but I think the 40K stories are all crap and I don't see any reason why there couldn't be formerly lost Chapters from past millennia who no longer recognize the authority of the (corrupt) Adeptus Terra and interpret the rules in their own way; an unrecognized or rebel Chapter could have female Marines.
