bozo69pd Posted July 4, 2017 Share Posted July 4, 2017 Played last night with a friend, and we play pure BRB. He decided to bring 2 separate detachments. A LoW detachment of imperial knights, and a different patrol detachment for Ynarri. When I pointed out a detachment has to be from the same book, he said yes but the book states you can bring any number of separate detachments. I didn't see anything in the book saying otherwise. This means I could bring small detachments of my Chaos, Orks, Necrons, and Space Wolves all fighting together??

Azekai Posted July 4, 2017 Share Posted July 4, 2017 I noticed this as well. I was sleeping on it because I thought I had missed something, but yes, I did not see any cross-detachment requirements.

Azekai Posted July 4, 2017 Share Posted July 4, 2017 Well, that settles that. Glad factions aren't meaningless! Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/336151-interesting-detachment-conundrum/#findComment-4808199 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Warsmith Aznable Posted July 4, 2017 Share Posted July 4, 2017 It's what makes units like Cypher, The Fallen, and Genestealer Cults more interesting.

Cheex Posted July 5, 2017 Share Posted July 5, 2017 Bearing in mind that's only for Matched Play, of course. Narrative and Open can mix and match faction detachments all they want.
