D3athduo Posted January 21, 2012 Share Posted January 21, 2012 If I have a chapter master attached to an honor guard (or a captain with a command squad), can I attach more units to that squad, such as a chaplain or librarian? Are there any squads I can't attach these units to? Thanks.

Brother Rathul Posted January 22, 2012 Share Posted January 22, 2012 I think you can add as many as you want. But imagine how big of a bullseye would be on that unit though.... :P Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/245805-question-about-leaders-as-individual-characters/#findComment-2973586 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ming Posted January 24, 2012 Share Posted January 24, 2012 I think it was in 3rd or 4th edition you could build an HQ consisting of a Captain, libby, apoth, chaplain, banner bearer, tech marine and 4 others for a squad of 10...you can still get close to that, just have to decide on chappy vs libby.

JamesI Posted January 27, 2012 Share Posted January 27, 2012 but a chaplain or librarian could be bought and attached to a command squad without taking up an additional hq slot. So you could have 4 chaplains in a single foc... In what codex is this? Space marines 4th edition. It was legal to take a captain, command squad, librarian and chaplain as 1 unit taking 1 FOC slot. Now the ICs were stuck in the unit until the command squad was dead. Its still legal to do in Black Templars, though clearly without the Librarian.
