Ok heres a quicky, a hq unit can choose to replace his command/honour guard with anoth hq. So points limits obviously would affect it but could you take calgar, replacing his 3 honour guard with cassius, tigurius and sicarius who then has a command squad.

Um...no. For every Chapter Master HQ you may take an honour guard squad that does not use of a FOC (command squad for every captain). With Calgar you may take up to three honour guard squads rather then just one.

I'm not sure where you got that HQs could count as honour guard squads...reread the dex and I'm sure it will clear this up for you. Good gaming!

Page 104 mighty heroes in the space marine dex does say that, but my lgs black shirt pointed out that the errata changes the wording too "each also has the option for an extra hq unit" my local black shirt came up with the process of stacking the hq's up to make a space marine council of war.

Page 104 – Mighty heroes, second paragraph.
The third sentence should be changed as follows: “Each also has the option for an extra HQ unit [...]”

You then need to read the rest of that, which is that the extra HQ unit is the honour guard

In general, and I say this civil partnered to an ex blue shirt, GW staff are *terrible* when it comes to rules. Absolutely terrible.

What is the deal with these people! How these black/red/blue shirts can so completely screw up core rules and FOC protocols is just baffling.

It boggles the mind.

As others have stated... SM get 2 HQ (plus any command/honour guard), that's it.

(plus, what a waste of points to make the council of war)
