ALLIES - wako1302 - 29-05-2013
Is there anywhere in the Rules which restricts the number of Allies you can take.
For Example
If I take 500 Points of IG as my Primary Army, can I take 1,000 Points of SoB as Allies.
RE: ALLIES - Embolden - 29-05-2013
Nope, no limit bar foc chart, don't have rulebook on me, but it's near the allies matrix, things like paladins + draigo near the 1000pts for 1 squad and character
RE: ALLIES - Simian - 29-05-2013
the only restrictions are based on the FOC

I have accidentally left my rule book at my mom's and am trying to get my league list revision done, i was after some advice with regards to allies of convience. What are the negatives (if any) over battle brothers?
They are still scoring if i remember correctly?
RE: ALLIES - GoNecrons - 05-06-2013
Yeah they still score. You can't put independent characters into the allies of convenience units. Like a Tau HQ in a squad of IG infantry. That's all I think.
RE: ALLIES - manrogue - 06-06-2013
Cool, Nothing too bad then.
Thanks Rob!

I sure Harry was joking when he said that because Beast of War came out with a crazy video about allies about how they cannot claim objectives, contest your own objectives etc etc but he said to completely ignore it!
Allies of convenience basically mean your warlord traits don't effect them, you cannot use psychic powers on them, any buffs you may get don't effect them and no ICs can join them. But they do score and they can contest (your opponents objectives :p)
