splinx Posted July 31, 2015 Report Share Posted July 31, 2015 Hi Guys Question - I am running an Imperial fists army at present and have converted a Sgt Telion model to use as my scout sgt. Is it OP to run him as Sgt Telions stats and profile and pay the Telion cost for use in a Imperial fists army? Replacing chapter tactics and doctrine to IF rather than UM's? Would this be allowed? Is it a case of just asking my opponent if its ok? Cheers Sam Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pretre Posted July 31, 2015 Report Share Posted July 31, 2015 Generally, you can use whatever model you want to have it go in another army, but can't change the chapter tactics since they are set for the special character. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
splinx Posted July 31, 2015 Author Report Share Posted July 31, 2015 So if i were to paint him up as an IF but use UM chapter tactics would that work? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fluger Posted July 31, 2015 Report Share Posted July 31, 2015 It would certainly be confusing though. Him and his formation would be the only ones with a different chapter tactic. That could be odd. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
splinx Posted July 31, 2015 Author Report Share Posted July 31, 2015 Yeah although i think the IF chapter tactic of bolted drill with him would make him a beast. So if nothing else i will just have him as an awesome modeled scout sgt. lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, it is good to differentiate between factions/formations in your list. Definitive squad markings? Different basing? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
generalripphook Posted July 31, 2015 Report Share Posted July 31, 2015 Just paint them camo instead of yellow 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
splinx Posted July 31, 2015 Author Report Share Posted July 31, 2015 They will be in urban camo just with a nice yellow shoulder pad! LOL Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You just want your opponent to differentiate the chapter tactics when he looks at the table. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted July 31, 2015 Report Share Posted July 31, 2015 Isn't there a yellow UM successor chapter? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VonVilkee Posted August 1, 2015 Report Share Posted August 1, 2015 One of the big gating factors on the army construction for Marines depends on chapter tactics with in the formation being the same. So be careful. You would not be able to consider a 10th company auxiliary formation the required one for a gladius strike force of they have different chapter tactics from the demi company. It is spelled out all models have to have the same. These are the choices you make to get benefits. If going unbound sky is the limit kid!
