CoreHunter Posted June 10, 2014 Author Share Posted June 10, 2014 All the special characters only convert to troops in the primary detachment. So aditional and allied detachments do not get termis and bikes as troops. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aegnor Posted June 10, 2014 Share Posted June 10, 2014 So you can take them, just not as troops. Would be pleased of all characters who affected the FOC only "worked" in the primary detachment to be honest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SvenONE Posted June 10, 2014 Share Posted June 10, 2014 I think this would only be a problem if taking DA as an allied detachment (other than a PFG carrying Librarian) was actually worth it :( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I absolutely have, and they are without a doubt the best entry in our codex. But I thought the context of the argument was about RWAS and DWT's specifically as troops. A Bike Libby with a PFG and a Command squad is a great option, but I'm not sure it's worth the cost. Especially when you have the cost effective option is to run a CSM Bike Captain+Bike Squad loaded with Grav Guns, more models and equally solid shooting.

FerociousBeast Posted June 10, 2014 Share Posted June 10, 2014 My point was that when we're talking about allies, particularly w/ other Space Marine armies, I see Dark Angels frequently used because of the Black Knights. And, yes, the PFG. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
