moivin Posted September 8, 2013 Share Posted September 8, 2013 so I would regularly mix and match characters from different chapters in my old lists e.g. Vulcan and telion/chronus in the same list. now that it specifies that you may take characters within their own armies can you not use them if you pick a different chapters traits? so for instance could I have my own invented chapter using the imperial fist traits contain telion in one if my scout squads? Could you run a lysander and a tigirus proxy in the same list? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heru Posted September 8, 2013 Share Posted September 8, 2013 No you can't, not legally. Though what you agree with your opponent is another matter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raeven Posted September 8, 2013 Share Posted September 8, 2013 Only by allying. Can still take Vulcan and Telion and Chronus in the same list, since Telion and Chronus are both Ultramarines. So one or the other will be your primary detachment and the other will be your allied detachment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dam13n Posted September 8, 2013 Share Posted September 8, 2013 Yep, the old "counts-as an equivalent character from chapter X" is dead. No Tellion or Chronus in a non-smurf detachment. RAW is pretty clear. - - - - - I know one player who plays Iron Hands who fully intends to ignore this and take Tellion but replace "Chapter Tactics Ultramarines" with "Chapter Tactics Iron Hands". I also know that I'll happily allow him to do this if we play each other. As it won't be a comp game (he's not a comp gamer) so friendly leeway should be allowed, at least IMHO.

Grey Mage Posted September 8, 2013 Share Posted September 8, 2013 No you cant, but as noted the codex has a built in workaround for this kind of thing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pyroknight Posted September 9, 2013 Share Posted September 9, 2013 Can you still take Lysander and Kantor in the same detachment? Since they have the same chapter tactics. The top right corner of pg 77 makes it sound like this is legal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seahawk Posted September 9, 2013 Share Posted September 9, 2013 Yes. Same tactics = same detachment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
