SPECIALIST DETACHMENT
If your army is Battle-forged, you can use the Specialist Detachment Stratagem below:

LEGACIES OF RUIN (1CP)
Specialist Detachment Stratagem
Use this Stratagem when choosing your army. Pick a HERETIC ASTARTES Detachment from your army to be a Legacies of Ruin Specialist Detachment. Vehicle units in that Detachment gain the LEGACIES OF RUIN keyword if they do not have the DAEMON or the HELLFORGED keyword.

VESSEL OF AKASHNETH OF THE BOILING BRASS (1CP)
Use this Stratagem up to once before deployment by choosing a KHORNE LEGACIES OF RUIN unit it gains the Boiling Brass ability. Friendly units within 6" of a model with the Boiling Brass ability armed with an Icon of Wrath add 1 to their Attacks characteristic.

VESSEL OF TZENAKH THE OCCLUDER (1CP)
Use this Stratagem up to once before deployment by choosing a TZEENTCH LEGACIES OF RUIN unit it gains the Occluder ability. Friendly units within 6" of a model with the Occluder ability armed with an Icon of Flame add 1 to their Sv characteristic.

VESSEL OF DHORNURGH THE REBORN (1CP)
Use this Stratagem up to once before deployment by choosing a NURGLE LEGACIES OF RUIN unit it gains the Reborn ability. Friendly units within 6" of a model with the Reborn ability armed with an Icon of Despair add 1 to their Toughness characteristic.

VESSEL OF SHYAK THE SEEKER (1CP)
Use this Stratagem up to once before deployment by choosing a SLAANESH LEGACIES OF RUIN unit it gains the Seeker ability. Friendly units within 6" of a model with the Seeker ability at the start of the Movement phase add 2 to their Movement characteristic until the end of the Movement phase if they are armed with an Icon of Excess.

VESSEL OF AULOTH THE PRIMORDIAL ITERATOR (1CP)
Use this Stratagem up to once before deployment by choosing a LEGACIES OF RUIN unit that is neither KHORNE, TZEENTCH, NURGLE or SLAANESH; it gains the Iterator ability. Friendly units within 6" of a model with the Seeker ability armed with an Icon of Vengeance add 10 to their Leadership characteristic.

Like it. I'm guessing hellforged aren't included because they already have warp/daemonic energy powering them?

I am glad you like them, they are obviously pretty simple but I don't know if that's a problem, it's more or less the effects marks had previously in the game. I'm not sure if hellforged were excluded in 7th because I don't understand the wording of the limitation but I assume they were excluded so I added the limitation here as well. It's also partly to avoid having a super-heavy which might be harder to get rid of having the same buff.

seems like fun.

I believe that may be because the units currently referred to as hellforged in 8th were referred to as infernal relics in 7th. They were allowed the legacy of ruin traits. And super heavys could only be played in apocalypse games so that wasn't a problem iirc.
