Where it gets more complex is in creating your own custom chapter and tweaking individual armour pieces with decals and colour schemes. I’ll run through how to acquire new armour pieces, colours, patterns, and icons, plus how to bring all of that together to create your own custom armour set.

Space Marine 2 customisation - Colour scheme

If you want to customise Titus in the campaign—if you have an extra skin for example—it’s as easy as visiting the Armouring Hall with campaign mode selected and clicking on appearance.

For Operations and Eternal War, the process is a little more complicated. Head to the Armouring Hall, cycle along to the class you want, andselect edit armourto start the process. Here are the key features you need to understand:

Once you’ve got a few elements unlocked, you’re ready to customise:

3.Add custom rules to your heraldry:Selecting that custom armour set option at the bottom of the Astartes Chapters tab will open a heraldry customisation menu. To customise each part of your armour individually, select the custom rules option at the bottom of the page and choose the armour piece you want to tweak. I’d suggest adding a custom rule for all armour pieces, then you can just cycle down and tweak at will.

That’s about it. From that menu you can change emblems, patterns, and colours, based on what you’ve unlocked using requisition in the heraldry menu with all the chapters. As you play Operations and Eternal War, you’ll gradually amass more requisition for purchasing heraldry.
