Hello Dakkaland,

I was wondering, are there any notable, or even recorded cases of these two legions working together for prolonged periods? I'm planning a chaos warband with marines and guard but I can't decide between the 2 legions, I like to keep things fluffy. So Dakkanoughts, please help put my addled mind to rest, is it okay to mix and match?

From IA: Word Bearers

Fortunately for the Imperium, the cults of the Word Bearers compete heavily with those of the Alpha Legion, a rivalry that has spread to the Legions themselves. Though the Alpha Legion and the Word Bearers have united several times to take part in the Black Crusades of Abaddon, they are more usually in states of bitter division and rivalry.

Other than that, i can't seem to find owt.

You could have them as a force dispatched to prepare for the next of Abaddons Crusades.
