the Space Marine's size

BUTI

In previous DoWs the Space Marines has pretty average normal human size comparing to guardsmen and xenos. Every Space Marine is very huge up to 9 feet tall. Relic should really take care about the Space Marines size in Dawn of War 3.

Yes, in the Dawn of War 2 Lord General was the same size as the Space Marines. 9 feet tall Lord General? XD
In the Space Marine game everything was made so good and the game should be used as the template.

Given ninjaflipping giant Angelos, I doubt the new relic team has much cares for lore accuracy, to their discredit.

Space Marines are not 9 feet tall. They're usually portrayed as around 7 or 8 feet.
Look up pictures of 7+ feet tall basketball players standing next to normal people if you don't think that's big enough. 9 feet would be positively ridiculous.

For example, look up 'Bill Clinton next to Dikembe Mutombo.' Then compare to a picture of Titus with Mira from the Space Marine game.

Comparing the two, I'd say Titus is shorter than that guy.

Now, we don't know how tall Mira is, but Bill Clinton is 6'2. The basketball player? 7'2. Which is, for the record, taller than Halo's Master Chief. There is no was that the average Astartes is 9 feet tall.

I heard about 8 feet Space Marines, about 9 feet tall I heard only in the internet by far.
7 feet tall is short for the superhuman, 8 feet sounds more decent.
In Space Marine Mira wasn't shorter than rest of the guardsmen in helmets so she was tall for women. Usually guardsmen are not so tiny too. They got average robust army men size.

Don't look at games as absolute lore template no matter how much lore they have.
DoW2 really don't have too much of the lore if we are speaking about things like Space Marines size or toughness.
