Hey guys, I'm playing a 'C:SM' army, but ?I was going to go with a alpha leigon look, because I like them.

Now, I was thinking of their kind of guns, but I don't know.

Question is; would you let me play a chaos army that use SM codex?

Yes, as long as you only use the appropriate codex and dont try to mix and match.

AS long as you explain what each unit is and does, and are prepared to do this repeatedly during a game, then go for it.

Alpha legion can be perfectly well represented in the chaos book, or even bettter using the IA renegades list which let you have cultists.

Yeah - I agree with what nosferatu said. I'd be fine with it as long as you used ONLY the Space Marines codex, and didn't try to slip any units, characters or wargear in from the Chaos Codex.

This is pretty much called "Count As".
And yes, you just have to be clear what is what.

it's not like I'd say this hammernator squad is actually obliterators.

Thanks, guys.
