Games Workshop decides to make 40K more of a 'Humanity, fuck yeah' universe, and sees Space Marines as an obstacle to this idea (since Space Marines are kinda human but also kinda not).
As a result they remove the Space Marines entirely, and give the role they had (bulwark against the terror) to the Sisters of Battle. Sisters are now the Imperium's most elite fighting force.
Your thoughts, Veeky Forums?
Just fucking kill me maybe?
My first thought would be why do that when sisters models are all old as shit, metal, and expensive when SM are one of their biggest cashcows.
There'd be literally no difference to the setting. SoB would just be Space Marines and SoB as they are now wouldn't exist.
SoB currently are so insignificant their removal to fill the seat of Space Marines would effect nothing.
Your question basically amounts to "what if we squatted SoB and made all space marines cute girls"?

They better promote stormtroopers and IG veterans. Right now they are elite mooks.

40k could arguably be a more interesting setting if they had done this to start with a la Dune's fish speakers, but as it stands it would be a stupid change financially and creatively

The sheer volume of SoB threads I've seen recently is absurd. If GW has any business sense they should just give the waifu fags new content and be done with it.
