一分鐘版本 (TL;DR)One-minute version
初生戰士Firstborn
帝皇親自創造的原版基因戰士。10,000 年來的帝國主力。The original super-soldiers crafted by the Emperor himself. The Imperium\'s pillar for 10,000 years.
現況：官方新模型與規則更新已全面以 Primaris 為主，許多初生戰士單位轉列為傳奇（Legends），逐步淡出主打產品線。Status: Official releases now focus on Primaris; many Firstborn units have moved to Legends and are phasing out of the main range.
原初戰士Primaris
貝利薩留斯·考爾 10,000 年秘密打造的升級版。更高、更強、裝備更新。Belisarius Cawl\'s 10,000-year secret project — taller, stronger, better-equipped.
現況： 所有新規則、模型、Codex 更新都以 Primaris 為主。你買的「Space Marine」Combat Patrol 盒幾乎 100% 是 Primaris。Status: All new rules, models, and Codex updates focus on Primaris. Any modern "Space Marines" Combat Patrol is ~100% Primaris.
歷史：為什麼會有兩種？Why do two generations exist?
兩者的實際差異What actually differs
原版 特色Firstborn traits
• 19 個植入器官 (原始帝皇設計)• 19 implanted organs (Emperor\'s original)
• 較矮 (2.1–2.3 m)，適合舊 Terminator/MKVII 動力甲• Shorter (2.1–2.3 m), fits legacy Terminator / MKVII armour
• 武器：爆彈槍、電漿、熱熔 等「經典」星際戰士 武器• Weapons: classic Bolter, Plasma, Melta loadouts
• 文化：與自己戰團的傳統緊密連結• Culture: deeply tied to Chapter tradition
• 壽命：300-400 年 (機甲無畏 可延長至千年)• Lifespan: 300–400 years (Dreadnought internment extends to millennia)
Primaris 特色Primaris traits
• 22 個植入器官 (多了 3 個新器官)• 22 implanted organs (+3 new)
• 更高 (2.5–2.7 m)，需要新的 Mk X 動力甲• Taller (2.5–2.7 m), requires new Mk X armour
• 武器：爆彈 步槍、自動 爆彈 步槍、潛行者 爆彈 步槍 等改良版• Weapons: Bolt Rifle family — range / rate upgrades
• 文化：新一代，有些戰團視為「外來戶」• Culture: newcomers — some Chapters view them as outsiders
• 壽命：可能超過 原版，數據尚未完整揭示• Lifespan: potentially longer than Firstborn — full data not yet revealed in lore
一個矛盾事實： Firstborn 可以升級成 Primaris (稱為 "Primaris 化")，但過程有風險，只有極少數知名英雄 (Marneus Calgar、Dante) 成功過。
An awkward fact: Firstborn can be upgraded to Primaris ("Primaris-ing"), but the process is risky. Only a handful of famous heroes (Calgar, Dante) have successfully made the transition.

2026 年該買哪種？Which should you buy in 2026?
新手建議Newbie advice
- 買 Primaris。Buy Primaris. 所有原廠當代 戰鬥巡邏 盒、法典 更新都以 Primaris 為主。 All modern Combat Patrol boxes and Codex updates focus on Primaris.
- 不要買二手的 原版 戰術 小隊。Avoid buying used Firstborn Tactical Squads. 官方將它們定位為傳奇（Legends），不用於配對賽（比賽通常不採用）；本站圖鑑與軍表仍收錄（LEGENDS 標記）。 Officially they are Legends — not used in matched play; this site\'s codex and army builder still include them (LEGENDS badge).
- 混用是可以的，但有點尷尬。Mixing works, but feels awkward. 身高差讓 Primaris 與 原版 並排時比例明顯不同。多數玩家會選擇「純 Primaris」。 The height difference is visually jarring when Primaris stand beside Firstborn. Most players go all-Primaris.
- 機甲無畏 例外。Dreadnoughts are an exception. 無畏機甲是跨世代都受歡迎的經典造型；購買前可先在本站圖鑑確認你想要的型號目前的收錄狀態。 Dreadnoughts remain popular across generations; check this site\'s codex for the current status of the kit you want.
- 部分戰團仍有 原版 專屬單位：Some Chapters retain Firstborn specials: 如 太空野狼 的 狼化人、死亡守望 的特殊分隊。這些仍是主規則。 e.g. Space Wolves\' Wulfen, Deathwatch\'s specialist kill teams — these remain in core rules.
常見疑問FAQ
Q: 為什麼原廠要搞這麼複雜？Q: Why did the manufacturer do this?
三個原因：(1) 開發新模型比重塑舊模型便宜；(2) Primaris 更貼近 小說 裡「2.5 米巨漢」的描述；(3) 新故事新人物，重新啟動整個 IP 的商業價值。Three reasons: (1) designing new kits is cheaper than redesigning old; (2) Primaris match the "2.5 m giant" described in novels more accurately; (3) new characters and storylines refresh the entire IP commercially.
Q: 我的舊 戰術 小隊 還能玩嗎？Q: Can I still play my old Tactical Squad?
可以。官方將它們定位為傳奇（Legends）：不用於配對賽（比賽通常不採用），休閒對戰與戰役多半可玩；本站圖鑑與軍表仍收錄（LEGENDS 標記）。Yes — officially they are Legends: not used in matched play, but fine in casual games; this site\'s codex and army builder still include them (LEGENDS badge).
Q: Primaris 有什麼缺點？Q: Any Primaris downsides?
美學爭議──很多老玩家覺得「新的 Primaris 失去了 星際戰士 的歌德式美感」。Primaris 的動力甲更乾淨、更像科幻片。如果你愛 40K 的歌德感，原版 戰術 小隊 在視覺上可能更順眼。Aesthetic debate — many veterans feel Primaris lose the "gothic Marine" look in favour of cleaner sci-fi armour. If you love 40K\'s gothic feel, Firstborn kits may be visually more to your taste.
Q: 其他陣營有這個問題嗎？Q: Does this affect other factions?
沒有。Primaris 是 星際戰士 專屬的新一代問題。太空死靈、Orks、蟲族 等陣營沒有類似劃分。No — only Space Marines. Necrons, Orks, Tyranids et al. have no such split.
