New to the game, and can't seem to find if I'm able to put a librarian on a bike in a Blackkights unit. Could someone help me out with this please.

Yes you can.

Look up the rules for Independent characters in the BRB.

Sorry, but do you mean Grey Knights or Black Templars? Or another chapter? If it's either of the first, then no- GK have no bikes, and BT can't take librarians due to Abhor the Witch. But any other marine army, and yes.

Neither. Dark Angels' Ravenwing Black Knights.

Dark Angels' Ravenwing Black Knights.

Sorry for the cut off post, this tablet was being annoying, and thanks for the clarification. I don't know much about the DA codex.

Thanks everyone. Think I'm goin to run a Libby with my black knights.


Automatically Appended Next Post:
Is it in the codex or RB I can't seem to find it?

Here is how it works;


A Librarian in Codex: Dark Angels is an Independent Character.

The rules for Independent Characters are found in the rulebook (Look it up). This general rule allows such a character to join another unit.

The Ravenwing Black Knights does not present a specific exception to the above rule.

So a Dark Angel Librarian can join a Ravenwing Black Knights unit.


QED


....

As just a little addition to Steelmage's post (covering the main points):

For Dark Angel's characters, the upgrade to a Bike is in the Special Issue Wargear list on page 91.
