Brother_Zanthis Posted May 16, 2008 Share Posted May 16, 2008 Okay this is my first post on B&C I really liked this forum site so i decided to create a profile but any way. I have been playing WfB and W40k for quite some time now and I took a little break and now am getting into it again pretty tough. I starting to collect a Tau Empire army and something caught my attention being a CSM army i pretty much instantly fell in love with them being the Alpha legion. So I asked my friend to lend me his CSM codex which is the older one and not the newer one. The big question was being in the new edition for the codex what does the Alpha legion get if anything since I have been hearing pretty bad things. So any information would be helpful thanks. :huh: Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/136380-alpha-legion/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
chillin Posted May 16, 2008 Share Posted May 16, 2008 First off welcome to B&C. Much to the dismay of most legion players there are no legion rules in the new dex for any legion. It seems that most AL players try to keep with the fluff by using "daemons" as cultist that pop up out of hiding when "summoned". And by only using unmarked or IoCG troops. - Oh, and we (all chaos players) get infiltrators as elites, so that of course is very AL'y (AL'ish ??)

Celestial Dragon King Posted May 17, 2008 Share Posted May 17, 2008 I noticed a lot of guys using C:SM for their AL. You can also include an =I= with Storm Troopers to represent Cultists and leader.

Nurgle71 Posted May 17, 2008 Share Posted May 17, 2008 Ye the SM rules are good or if you play with some giving people, try LaTD cultist, mutants and everything with it. Just imagine you can now include chaos leman russ and sentinels. :yes: Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/136380-alpha-legion/#findComment-1572335 Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm also one of those Alpha Legion players who uses Cultists instead of Daemons and can report it's a fluffy,fun and effective tactic.
