Something I just realized, and wondering if QM might shed some light.
This is our first time engaging with astartes, and furthermore with another Primarch like Horus. We get to at long last see how the Emperor and Mars' work compares to our own. We can at last determine the statistics of our acillians if they match the astartes or are superior/inferior in different regards.
More the so, their Mark II Crusade and Mark III Iron Armor. I don't recall what sort of armor or specs we have on our acillians, if we've discovered ceramite, or so forth.
It would be tremendously impressive if our Acillians were to match astartes from the get go. For a single Primarch, even one like Talos, to do what took the Emperor a full century and the adepts of mars up until this point.
I wonder if astartes armor impresses us. If the hunt action goes through, perhaps we'll get to see just how our boys compare and what this fancy Imperial tech is capable of.
Who knows, will it be our acillians upgrading to astartes. . .or the astartes upgrading to acillians?
