Legio Cybernetica + Mechanicum

So I'm trying to figure out if the Mechanicum list (HH1) and the Legio Cybernetica (HH2) combine lists, or if they are completely separate, basically just meaning, can the Legio Cybernetica use Mechanicum Land Raiders.  I'd like to start making an army of them, but it's hard to tell what I can and cannot use.

I think, but am, by no means certain, that they are two separate lists, due to the wording of the bit about additional units on page 265.  The thing is that forgeworld usually accompanies alternative army lists with stuff about how allies work.

Eventually, they'll probably have separate and full lists or do something where taking a Magos of a certain Ordos unlockes units from that ordos, but at this point, I'd probably encourage the house rule one of two ways:

More conservatively, Ordo Reductor and Cybernetica are seperate lists, and the Cybernetica list is as shown in Massacre.  Reductor, on the other hand I'd give an expanded FOC.

 

HQ:

Decima

Magos Reductor

 

Elites:

Enginseer Auxillia-- replace cortex controller with phoxphex bombs and the like

Myrmidon Secutors

 

Troops

Thallax as usual

Thralls in squads of 20, to make up for the need for a line troop.

 

FA

Flyers as given to Cybernetica

 

HS

Myrmidon Destructors

Legion Artillery as given in Berayal

 

Up to you what to do with the land raiders as we all know whether or not they are dedicated transports for the myrmidons, they're the ones who will be inside them.

 

 

The more radical option is to allow a player who takes a magos reductor or Decima to take an allied detachment of reductor in the same FOC.  Making them an Archagos inverts it. --Basically the Arch magos determines what the primary army is, the other magi give you access to other ordos.

 

I'll experiment and see what I like, let me know what works for you.
