Hello everyone. I am considering running a Black Dragons Space Marine army (never tried to run any marine army before) and am thinking of attempting to use their rules found in the Chapter Approved The Cursed Founding (2004). The special rules for the Black Dragons Space Marines are:

-Cursed founding "ill fated": There is a rule with all cursed founding chapters that states they do not have the and they shall no fear rule which would be a negative to my list.

-Ossific Blades: Bone blades that grow out of both the forearms and elbows and that have also been known to be seen as crests protruding from the forehead. Count all 6's to hit as an automatic wound with no chance at an armor save (aka Rending) but for their assault marines only, they are known as Dragon Claws.

I was just wondering if Chapter Approved Army lists such as the Cursed Founding Marine Chapters are still playable in this edition including at a Gamesworkshop Tournament with their special rules? Any and all info and comments are appreciated thanks.

19th Krieg Siege Army 7500pts.
40k/HH Night Lords 5000pts.
Orks Waaaghmacht Spearhead 2500pts.

Chapter approved is pretty outdated stuff I believe. I don't think too many people would object to the rules in friendly games though. The rules don't seem overpowered or anything to me.

Usually old rules like this won't be allowed at GW sanctioned tournaments or even at local tournaments.

Feel free to model the guys up however you want I would just not count on getting to use the old rules for them outside of friendly games.

Does it mention points costs for those? Or do they assume that the two cancel eachother out? If I were you, I'd just take the vanilla space marines, and include some tooled up Assault Marines, and then model their weapons as the Ossific blades, rather than regular chainswords.
