Which points values should you use when building your SM army? I notes there are significant differences between vaules in the new codex and the Munitorium field manual release a couple of weeks ago. Has there like been a communication from GW? Also, as I read it, is it possible to split a tacitcal squad into two unit and have each of them being bodyguard to two different leaders? I read it as such...

Dear Fraters I am in the process of waging a crusader campain, and I have som trouble deciding what to go with when the PL is increasing. Initially we stared on 25 PL and will eventually go up to 50 PL. What I am currious about is my army combusition and what I should include for the 50 PL army. I have the following in the 25 PL army: ++ Patrol Detachment 0CP (Imperium - Adeptus Astartes - White Scars) [25 PL, 3CP, 555pts] ++ + Configuration + **Chapter Selector**: White Scars Battle Size [3CP]: 1. Combat Patrol (0-50 Total PL / 0-500 Points) Detachment Command Cost Unit Filter: Hide Imperial Agents, Hide Legends Units + HQ + Primaris Captain [5 PL, 95pts]: Bellicos Bolt Rifle, Hunter's Instincts, Master-crafted power sword, Warlord . Master-crafted auto bolt rifle + Troops + Infiltrator Squad [6 PL, 130pts]: Helix gauntlet . 4x Infiltrator: 4x Bolt pistol, 4x Frag & Krak grenades, 4x Marksman bolt carbine .

Thunder Hammer & Storm Shield: Thunder hammer . 2x Assault Terminator w/THSS: 2x Storm shield, 2x Thunder hammer . 2x Assault Terminator w/x2LC: 2x Lightning Claw (Pair) ++ Total: [25 PL, 3CP, 555pts] ++ Created with BattleScribe I have considered replacing the Terminator Assult Squad with a "regular" Terminator squad and add the following units, to the 50 PL roster: Stratagem: Khan's Champion [-1CP] Stratagem: Relics of the Chapter [-1CP]: Number of Extra Relics + Elites + Terminator Squad [9 PL, 220pts]: Teleport Homer . Terminator Sergeant . 3x Terminator w/ Chainfist: 3x Chainfist, 3x Storm bolter . Terminator w/ Heavy Weapon: Chainfist . .

Eliminator Sergeant: Instigator Bolt Carbine . 2x Eliminators: 2x Bolt pistol, 2x Camo cloak, 2x Frag & Krak grenades This leave me with 8 PL which I would like to use on a Chapter Master... The question is which one and what should he be armed with? My thoughts lies on the following: Chapter Master in Terminator Armour [8 PL, -1CP, 150pts]: Angel Artifice, Chainfist, Chapter Command: Chapter Master, Chogorian Storm, Combi-melta, Stratagem: Tempered by Wisdom, The Imperium's Sword, Warlord Captain on Bike [8 PL, -1CP, 170pts]: Angel Artifice, Chapter Command: Chapter Master, Chogorian Storm, Combi-melta, Stratagem: Tempered by Wisdom, The Imperium's Sword, Thunder hammer, Warlord Captain on Bike [8 PL, -1CP, 170pts]: Chapter Command: Chapter Master, Chogorian Storm, Storm shield, Stratagem: Tempered by Wisdom, The Imperium's Sword, Thunder hammer, Warlord, Wrath of the Heavens Chapter Master [8 PL, -1CP, 165pts]: Angel Artifice, Chapter Command: Chapter Master, Chogorian Storm, Combi-melta, Jump Pack, Relic blade, Stratagem: Tempered by Wisdom, The Imperium's Sword, Warlord I have also considered a Primaris Gravis Captain, but he is not very fast/do not have Deep Strike...
