With the increase in the amount of Formations out there and a sizable increase in the number of publications they are located in I thought it might be a good idea to have an updated list of all the current formations. The list would include the formation name, type of units, and publication their special rules are located in. The idea being that almost no one is going to go out there and buy every single publication that includes a formation but a lot of people could very reasonably buy individual ones.
People can post ones that are missing from this thread and I'll update.
I’ll also be doing Individual Unit Dataslates as well. These are included after the Formations and in the same format as the formations noted below.
Things that will not be included are point costs, special rules, and formation restrictions. This isn't a way to provide free content to everybody. Just to make everyone aware of the formations that are out there and available to their armies in case they missed them.
Organized by primary codex in alphabetical order. Format for follow-on posts please:

Yeah, I know Sanctus Reach has 4 or 5 formations and they are all for "normal" 40k. Basically the only Apoc only ones would be the ones labelled Apoc on the Black Library site for dataslates, the warzones, or the apoc book formations.
If we can get the specifics (down to what's above) on the Sanctus Reach formations that'd be great

Oh man, he actually copied and pasted it from this thread
How do I know that? This quote:

Dataslate: Tyranid Onslaught - Rising Leviathan II
If you scroll up here, you'll see that BeeCee abbreviated the word "Artillery" to "Arty" in his post, which Hulk copied into the OP here... which tastytaste copied over to the Blood of Kittens blog without crediting his source.
Not a huge deal, but not really cool either! Could at least say "Thanks to Hulksmash for the idea" or something.
Yeah, I poked him on Facebook. I'm glad the information is out there but a tiny bit of credit for the idea since we can be pretty sure he isn't going to upkeep it. Since it doesn't have any of the formations I'm currently missing (or haven't added yet).
Oh well. Information spread is good
@Ritides
Funny about the Arty thing, I didn't even notice that
Oh, and can you just go ahead and sticky? Thanks man.
Done! Fair warning, though, people don't tend to read stickies. This got 333 views in a few days; let's see if folks keep checking it now that it's stickied.
Regardless, it's a good resource to have at the top of the forum, with dataslate rules only likely to increase.
I didn't realize till the wolf one they were going in there. And for the sake of completionism I feel they should be there. Completely forgot to go back and check the ork codex for one. Glad you did
I just completed a resource guide for 7th and found some bits of info that will help you fill this in. I do not have all my books on me, so the new formations listed from Stormclaw do not have the composition filled in.
Good catch and thank you for the missing formations/units. Much appreciated. For those interested Tironum has compiled a list of all rule sources including Lord of War and FW on the Mechanicon site. I heartily recommend checking it out for stuff other than just formations and units. It includes types and locations for other Force Organization Charts as well.

Would it be worth linking to this in the OP as a resource for people to know where to look for things like LOW that aren't on this list? Sounds extremely helpful!
What do you think about spoiler tagging some of the longer entries? Then people could just scroll to the army they want to see, and unspoiler it. Otherwise, at the rate GW's going, we're going to have "wall-o-text syndrome" pretty soon
Added, thank you good sir. As for the assassins unless they get another addition I'm likely going to be leaving them under the Misc. category. Making a new category for every single one off faction seems excessive. I'm tempted to move the Militarum Tempestus there as well but am holding off on it
Just an idea I'm tossing out there. How about adding Supplements as well? Like Farsight Enclave for Tau and Black Legion for Chaos. I know they don't contain any formations but they do have a few new units or pieces of wargear. Just food for thought.
Yeah, it's pretty insane. At least now they seem to only pop up every other month or so. But I feel like at the end of December between the advent calendar, codex BA, and what should be the third installment of the Leviathan campaign I'm gonna have a bunch more to add.
Yeah, the one with the boxset will be the second installment. I expect a 3rd installment that's basically a blood angel supplement to be released in a few weeks. Mostly because they aren't selling a supplement with the pre-ordered special edition like normal.
Yep, it's already added. The only one that is missing, to my knowledge, is the Chaos Advent Calendar one. I've also already added the Blood Angel one from the iTunes preview.
No worries. Not like there isn't a lot of info to wade through The newest stuff will always be at the bottom of the subcategory. Anything else is just to much work

1 unit of Skitarii Vanguard, 1 unit of Skitarii Rangers, 1 unit of Sicarian Ruststalkers, 1 unit of Sicarian Infiltrators, 1 unit of Sydonian Dragoons, 1 unit of Ironstrider Ballistarii, 1 unit of Onager Dunecrawlers

2 units of Sydonian Dragoons, 1 unit of Ironstrider Ballistarii

Also i think the Eldar formation is not usable anymore there is no "Eldar" Codex soon, It will be eldar craftworlds so different, right?
I have a couple of quite obscure ones that I think are missing, I suspect noone has/will ever use them but for completeness sake.
Chaos Space Marines Dataslate: Vrosh Tattersoul (unit)
Undated Dark Vengence Box
Space Wolves Hrothgar Frostborn's Blood Claws
Hrothgar and his 9 Blood Claws
Sanctus Reach: Heroes of Sanctus Reach
Orks Badrukk's Flash Gitz
Furst Mate Grogg and his 4 Flash Gitz
Sanctus Reach: Heroes of Sanctus Reach
If you haven't heard of it, Heroes of Sanctus Reach was a free supplement PDF given out to all subscribers by Black Library. The two units basically get an additional little rule tacked on if you take there specific load out, very similar to the units in the campaign boxes.
Added the Skitarri above and Codex Eldar Craftworlds. Added the GW 5 Knight Exclusive Formation. Still missing is the Knight Codex formations if someone wants to post them up I'll put them in and then in two weeks we'll be adding the Cult Mechanicus formations
I'm close to "making a back-up" of my Ork dataslates and storing it in a binder to take with me to the game store. Necrons are pretty close to that too.
Cult Mechanicus Codex Formations
Cohort Mechanicus web exclusive dataslate
Skyhammer Annihilation Force web exclusive dataslate
Space Marine Codex Formations
I'll add Dark Angels once I get it or once someone posts them up
So looks like 40k is up and running again. As far as I know this is completely updated. I'll be adding the new Tau & Ravenwing detachments and special units from the new releases here over the next few weeks.
Space Marines from Kanyon added. If anyone wants to write up all the Tau ones from Kanyon & Montka and the IG from Montka that'd be awesome. Otherwise I'll get them updated eventually.
So I'm tapping out. You can find most of this info on Blood of Kittens (who, to his credit and my chagrin from an earlier post, did the upkeep on his better than I did on mine) and he seems really into keeping it going. The Mods can put the link in the original post if they like. Or someone else can take over. I'm easy that way. I've been at this for 2 years so I'm good.
Thanks for carrying the torch for so long, Hulk! With any luck, next year we'll see a new edition of 40k and it won't be so tangled...
If someone wants to volunteer let me know, or linking to the BoK article would probably be a fine stopgap. What's the name of the chronological release that your list is fully issued until, Hulk? We can just put a note saying it's up to date to that point and to refer to BoK for anything more recent.
No sure the exact date. It goes thru just before Angels of Death and I didn't include the tau from kan'yon. So all of that thru may. I think that's only missing those, mark of the wulfen, and new gsc.
Sorry, just do t have the time anymore. I would love to keep it up but it's kinda killer because I'm not buying every single book that comes out
