So you've got some dudes with undersized legs from the knees down and some dudes who're, like, 10' on average (IIRC Astartes are like 7 without gear, and there was that one dude from the... Iron Snakes, I think?... who was like 10 and needed specially crafted gear because his CHADliness was just overpowering)
