You need a major and minor disadvantage, not just a major; Cleanse and Purify and Heed the Wisdom don't share a "category". Also, I'm not sure you can use traits with Forgeworld-rules dreads; siege dreads aren't in the main codex.

As a rule of thumb, the designers do not hide "easter eggs" in the rules. If clever reading is required to unlock some sort of hidden option, then it is most likely the result of wishful thinking.

But there's no sense crying over every mistake;
You just keep on trying till you run out of cake.

uh dude as per the notable divergence section i take 2 traits and 1 major drawback. this is a spin on the slamanders list. i just swaped out never dispair for heed the wisdom of the ancients. but if i did have to have a minor drawback it would be "take pride in your colors"

the seige dread is in a PDF download on the FW website and it specifically allows the trait for heed the wisdome of the ancients since the siege dread is normally a 0-1 for all other armies.

Look at the rules in the codex; they tell you what you can and can't do with traits. Just include the minor, and it's all good.

As for the siege dread: Cool, knock yourself out.

Check the codex, at the very beginning of the Trait section, you've got those 9 boxes. If the traits don't match in those boxes then your at a Significant Divergance, not a notable.

The Wise trait is the only one that lets you take Heed the Wisdom of the Ancients, and it doesn't have Cleanse and purify in there. Sombre, and Stern do. So you have two advantages coming from differant traits, hence the Significant Divergence, and the need for a major, and minor drawback. Never despair was part of the Sombre trait as well, that is why the Salamander list is only Notable, not Significant.

As for 6 venerable seige dreadnoughts... well, as long as the list is for fun, then have fun with it.
