Am I allowed to use Necrosius' special rule to grant Furious Charge to Plague Zombies in Typhus' army?

According to Necro's back story they don't get along. But I can't find anything that says they can't be used together.

Unless a special rule states it , fluff won't prevent you from using two characters together.

Unfortunately no, I don't think it would work. Unless they've changed Necrosius's special rule since the update last year, it only applies to Plague Zombies taken from the Renegades and Heretics: Servants of Decay army list in IA7. They may have changed it in the new Imperial Armour Apocalypse, but I don't have a copy of that so I can't verify.

But can't they ally with CSM? I'm pretty sure they're battle bros.

They do in fact work together necrosis was updated in the new apoc book. He now also makes cultists zombies like typhus dose ( in addition to the IA zombies) and still dose the furious charge buffs.

Oh hell yeah! All the more reason bring the Zombie hoard!

Well that makes Necrosius almost a better choice than Typhus if you want to run a zombie hoard, especially since Necrosius is way cheaper. More points for zombies!

Exactly, if you want to do all zombie spam it's great that savings in point is a good amount of zombies. Plus they are furious zombies ^_^ the one downside (for me) is necrosis dosent unlock plague marines as troops so I still run him + typhus (I love Typhus to much not to use him) or Necrosis + a nurgle bike lord.

Where does it say that he can create zombies in a normal csm game? I see at the bottom of the FAQ that he can be used, but don't see where he turns cultists.

I'm looking at IAA, and the only thing he gives FC to are Plague Zombies from IA7.

It's under his special rules. He has the Plague Zombies special rule that Typhus has.

found it buried in the IAA all the way in the back, didn't see it listed anywhere else and their FAQ on FW was confusing the hell outa me.
