Brother Captain Ed Posted July 29, 2017 Share Posted July 29, 2017 They are. And, technically, it's even a perfectly legal Imperium detachment. But they can't use any chapter tactics or keywords while taking DA/BA/SW special units in a detachment. Hopper21 1 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Extropian Posted July 29, 2017 Share Posted July 29, 2017 Until they get a Codex, seems to be no problem. It's not like they are benefitting since they lose access to their own unique stuff, some of which is CRAZY strong in in the Index for those Chapters.

ronin_cse Posted July 29, 2017 Share Posted July 29, 2017 "Blood Angels, Dark Angels and Space Wolves army lists in Index: Imperium 1 all let you use units from the Space Marines section of that book. If you own the new codex, you should feel free to use those same units’ Datasheets from that book instead, until your own codex comes out."

Frater Cornelius Posted July 30, 2017 Share Posted July 30, 2017 The only thing they can not use are Stratagems, Relics, Psychic Powers and Warlord Trait. This is specifically mentioned in the Codex. The unit entries, regular wargear and point costs are fair game according to GW. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
