Gentlemanloser Posted August 6, 2017 Share Posted August 6, 2017 Can these be used by non sm armies? Unlike the space marine strategies, these don't seem to have any chapter restrictions on them.

CrimsonCorvidae Posted August 6, 2017 Share Posted August 6, 2017 It says "if the warlord of your army is an Adeptus Astartes character". So as long as that condition is met, it lists no others.

CrimsonCorvidae Posted August 6, 2017 Share Posted August 6, 2017 I hope it sticks to that rule, because that would be great to see! Even though I don't play GK, and I'll probably get nuked in the face by someone doing it, but at least I'll die with a smile on my face.

Saiisil Posted August 6, 2017 Share Posted August 6, 2017 Sadly I think I found the straw that breaks the camels back on this one (was kinda looking forward to using these for either my Grey Knights of Blood Angels). Page 194 under Space Marine Units it says that Adeptus Astartes is short hand only for units with the keywords <Chapter>, Ultramarines, Imperial Fists, Salamanders, White Scars, Raven Guard, Iron Hands, Crimson Fists, or Black Templars. Now I can easily be reading that wrong but I don't think we get to play with the fun rules in this book for our "Non-Codex" Marines.

CrimsonCorvidae Posted August 7, 2017 Share Posted August 7, 2017 Dang it, you're right. It even goes on to say specifically about non-Codex Chapters that get their own book. Oh well!

Gentlemanloser Posted August 7, 2017 Author Share Posted August 7, 2017 I've had a look at the codex and I'm not too sure now. It states that 'space marine' is sort hand for any adeptus astartes from the codex chapters. And if you look at the Stratagems, Relics and TacticalObjectives sections, the all start with; Space Marine Warlord / Detachment. The Warlord trait section is noticably different where it does not mention a Space Marine Warlord. But an Adeptus Astartes Character. Adeptus Astartes is not shorthand for Space Marine or even Codex Chapter. It's the other way round. If the Warlord Traits were supposed to be restricted to Codex Chapters, then 'Space Marine Character' should/would have been used. Adeptus Astartes is even in bold. It does not seem to be an error that had been overlooked. Probably needs a FAQ.
