Can a Blood Angel whirlwind use both types of ammo in the same game? If not, where is the rule? Page please.
BTW, I appologize for the mis-spelling in the title. It has been a very long day.

Yes it can fire both in the same game, its quite hilarious, Like a few other things in the BA PDF its against RAI but 100% legal by RAW (such as apothecaries healing vehicles)

you could argue that they have enough shots of both ammo to fire what they please.
though with the prevelance of cover saves the incindiery is MUCH better

Just against IG orks and DE since they are the only armies with less than 5+ basic saves.

From memory I believe the new marine codex states that the payload can vary/be chosen from round to round so it would only seem fair.

The poor man really has a stake in the country. The rich man hasn't; he can go away to New Guinea in a yacht. The poor have sometimes objected to being governed badly; the rich have always objected to being governed at all

Trust me, no matter what damage they have the potential to do, single-shot weapons always flatter to deceive in 40k. Rule #1 - BBAP

completely legal from a RAW POV. Why is it a big deal if the new SM will also be able to do so?

The Dark Angels Codex specifies that the type of missile used by a Whirlwind must be chosen prior to the game, p.33.
The Blood Angels Codex specifies that the Whirlwind can fire either vengeance or incendiary castellan missiles, p.26. If it specifies that the tank can fire either type of missiles, and the tank can fire several times in one game, then you choose which each time the Whirlwind missile launcher is used.
