Can Blood Angels utilize non-BA Space Marines stratagems?

[Zephaniah Adriyen]

Like it says on the tin. Blood Angels are, after all, Marines. I'm not suggesting they can use Ultrasmurf or Fists stratagems, just the generic Space Marines ones.

Well first of all you need a detachment with just units from the Codex: Space Marines. That means no Blood Angels in said detachment. And then it completely depends on what the Stratagem says. If it says to pick a ADEPTUS ASTARTES unit/model then you can use it on Blood Angels. If it says pick a <CHAPTER> unit/model then you can't since you can't replace that one with BLOOD ANGELS (or SPACE WOLVES or DARK ANGELS for that matter).

That being said we already have most of the generic Space Marine Stratagems in our own Codex anyway.

I thought there was something somewhere that specifically called this out. Not sure where but I remember something saying "blah blah blah, replace <chapter> with XXX. This only works for Codex: Space Marines etc.".

Most of the more generic space marine stratagems are in the BA codex already, is there a specific scenario in question here?

[Zephaniah Adriyen]

We don't have Chapter Master. Which means we can't take Chapter Masters for our Successors.

[Panzer]

That's right, we can't take Chapter Masters unfortunately. In return we can turn multiple characters into deathcompany though.

I believe as long as you have a codex space marine detachment to give you access to these stratagems, you should be able to use this on a BA Captain. I don't have any books in front of me right now though, I will check when I get home.

For successors, you use the BLOOD ANGEL keyword, but then say this guy that looks like Dante is actually chapter master XYZ of the Encarmine Chalice Tearers.

 

Otherwise, you have to use multiple detachments.
