If the army being used has a seperate codex and the rule is not FAQed in that codex, then that rule does not apply to your army. So in otherwords if its not in your rulebook or faq, and the description says you can do it, then you may do it. Space Marine Codex does not have anything to do with DA, BT, BA, GK, or SW...as each has their own codex AND faq sheet.

If it is applied then it will specifically say it is applied across the board IMO. Each coded is treated differently. The faqs are as well unless they combine ALL the faqs into 1. If it's not FAQ for the army then it's legal IMO. You can do it how you like. It I would not argue the guy since his codex an FAQ do not say otherwise
