* MindProbe: The Mind Raid Obscuration psychic power allows a Primaris Vanguard Librarian to rip military intelligence fom a foe's mind during the heat of battle, giving them a chance to gain extra Command points during a game. The telepathic probe is quite violent, however, and also [[UnblockableAttack causes damage to the victim's mind]].

* ArtMajorBiology: As the more powerful successor to regular Astartes the biology of the Primaris Marines is even more incredible than that of their predecessors, including a further three enhanced implants: the Sinew Coils[[note]] the Steel Within[[/note]], coiled metal cables that enhance strength and durability; the Magnificat[[note]] the Amplifier[[/note]] that amplifies growth and the functions of the other extra organs; and the Belisarian Furnace[[note]] the Revitaliser[[/note]] that dumps chemicals into his body that act as stimulants and that jump-start repair of bone, muscle and other tissues.

* MightyGlacier: Aggressors are similar to Terminators in that their Gravis armor is heavy and cumbersome but allows them to carry much heavier weaponry than baseline Primaris units.

* ElectiveMute: In contrast to fully traind Chaplains who go into battle bellowing prayers and litanies, Judicars have taken a vow of silence, stalking the battlefield without a single battle cry or shout of fury passing their lips, and letting their deeds to the talking for them.

!!The Primaris Space Marines

* HoverTank: The Primaris initially only had the Repulsor tank in its arsenal (their counterpoint to the Land Raider), but gradually their armory expanded to include the Impulsor (their version of the Rhino) and the Gladiator (their equivalent to the Predator). All of these are equipped by anti-grav plates that allow them to hover and cross any terrain.
* HumanPopsicle: Many of the Primaris Marines were recruited in the aftermath of the Horus Heresy and kept in stasis until Guilliman’s return almost ten millennia later. The Fulminators Primaris Chapter in particular are noted as having been founded while the campaigns of the Scouring were still underway, meaning that they technically predate the Second Founding, even if they gained no actual battle experience until reawakened in the 41st Millennium.

* HoverTank: The Astraeus super-heavy tank is a massive anti-grav armoured vehicle that blends the technology developed by Archmagos Cawl for the Repulsor armoured transport with highly restricted STC information recovered during the Perun Cross Incident. The anti-grav repulsor plates that hold it aloft provide the Astraeus’ powerful but temperamental weapon systems with an incredibly stable firing platform, allowing the massive armoured vehicle to pour massive amounts of firepower into the enemy as it advances.

* SuperiorSuccessor: Guilliman intended for them to be a better kind of Space Marine and Cawl delivered that: the Primaris Marines are stronger, faster and larger than regular Astartes. How they compare against the Custodes is another story altogether. It was also thought, in-universe, that Primaris Marines seemed to beunaffected by major gene-flaws from their parent chapters but subsequent events indicate that they just take longer to appear within the Primaris.

* ExoticWeapon: Judicar's wield a massive sword designed like an executioner's sword, having a flat square edge instead of a pointed tip.

* SuperiorSuccessor: Guilliman intended for them to be a better kind of Space Marine and Cawl delivered that: the Primaris Marines are stronger, faster and larger than regular Astartes. How they compare against the Custodes is another story altogether.
** An early part of their lore also mentioned how they seemed more or less unaffected by major gene-flaws from their parent chapters, such as Primaris Blood Angels being unable to fall to the Black Rage or Primaris Space Wolves being incapable of becoming Wulfen. As time has gone on, however, instances of these flaws have occurred among Primaris Marines, but taking far longer to begin manifesting than with normal Astartes.

* RememberTheNewGuy: [[DownplayedTrope Downplayed]]; their lore does indicate that the first generation of Primaris Marines were commissioned by Guilliman just after the Scouring and were then put into cryo-sleep, but given that the Imperium at large was unaware of them until the Indomitus Crusade started they are just as new to the majority of the galaxy as they are to us.

* BeyondTheImpossible: The all-Primaris Wolfspear Chapter did something that most considered impossible; it gave the Space Wolves an actual, honest-to-Emperor successor chapter that hasn't fallen to the Curse of the Wulfen due to their highly mutation prone gene-seed.

Apprentice Chaplains, Judicars are charged with keeping their Astartes battle-brother in line and execute those among their ranks who disobey orders.

* SkullForAHead: Like Chaplain's they wear helmets with a skull design.
* TimeMaster: Judicar carry a device called the Tempormortis, a device that can manipulate time to ensure no one can escape the swing of his blade and, in the 9th Edition rules, force nearby enemy units to fight last as their time is slowed.

[[folder:Judiciar]]

A sort of Chaplain-in-training. The Judicar is meant to keep Astartes in line, and carry out the Chapter Master's will. They are meant to execute those among their ranks who disobey orders.

* TimeMaster: In addition, they carry a device called the Tempormortis. A device that can manipulate time to ensure no one can escape the swing of his blade. In the 9th Edition Rules this allows a Judiciar to select a unit within 6" each turn to fight last in each Fight Phase regardless of who's turn it is.

* BFS: Judiaciars weild Executioner Relic Blades finely-crafted power swords designed purely to lop off the heads of Astartes who disobey. They tend to work just as well on enemy heads as well.

[[folder]]

Much like their regular Astartes counterparts. The Primaris Apothecary is a battlefield medic meant to patch up his brothers in the field, and harvest the gene seeds of those he cannot save.

* HandCannon: Wields both the Absolver Bolt Pistol, and the Reductor Pistol. Each one more powerful, and with greater armor piercing capabilities than a standard Bolt Pistol respectively.
* MultiArmedAndDangerous: Instead of wearing the Narthecium on their gauntlets Primaris Apothecaries have their medical tools worn in a set of mechanical arms on their backpack like a Techmarine.

The primary armoured personal carrier used by Primaris Marines, the Repulsor armoured transport is a huge grav-tank that combines brute force with the ability to traverse any terrain. Following the same "heavily-armed and armoured multi-purpose vehicle" design philosophy as the Land Raider, the Repulsor is able to unleash a storm of heavy fire from multiple weapon systems while safely carrying its cargo of Primaris Marines into the heart of the enemy battle line.
