Marines dont have counterplay like that because marines dont have rules like that. A vigilator doesent make nearby recon marines breach one better or have pinning(2) or whatever. Siege breakers dont make your artillery more accurate, there is no master of armor who gives tanks the DG trait.
The closest they have is the augur squad or whatever, and guess what, you can absolutely just kill them since its four 3+ save marines with 2W.
SA get the "if you kill the commander the rules go away" gameplay because they also get the "commanders actually buff the army around them" gameplay. Admech also have a variant of that going with techpriests/magi, if to a lesser extent. SA get a lot of synergistic rules for low cost models because they also get the downside of having pieces which require that synergy and can therefore suffer vs dedicated answers.
>if you kill a centurion marines don't lose their legion trait (cohort doctrines are not remotley equal to other factions sun-faction rules)
"can rhino rush without being disordered" is absolutely on par with some legion traits. "a free reaction per phase but it can only target tactical marines" is also par with many legion traits.
