There's a weird sort of combo in the Daemon Codex, mainly dealing with summoning and Portaglyph.

This is how it works.

You take a portaglpyh on a Herald and use it.

You then cast Sacrifice twice and kill the Daemon with the Portaglyph.

Can you then when Summoning the last Daemon with the Sacrifice select portaglyph again and then subsequently use it?

**Prophet40k**

Top of page 65 in Codex: Daemons should clear that question up for you.

**Hollismason**

I only have one at any one time in my army. Also summoned units have no such restrictions I can just have 30 points of Wargear, and techinically their not selected as part of my army. If they are part of my army, then what part?

**Lobokai**

In answering the question. Every time I run Daemons.

**Naw**

This sounds like you wanted us to find a justification for you to have 2 of an artifact that by the codex rules you can only have 1?

**blaktoof**

Well if summoned units are not part of your army, please do not move them or do anything with them during your phase as they are not yours.

Otherwise its still 1 per army.

**Kisada II**

Summoned daemons are not part of your detachment, Army is actually better defined now.

**Hollismason**

I neeed these Portaglyphs.

**blaktoof**

just because they are not part of your detachment does not mean they are not part of your army.

They are part of your army.

Portalglyph is limited per army not detachment.

**coredump**

Where does it say they are not part of the detachment?

Where does it say they are? This is a permissive rules set, you need to be told they are in a detachment.

**coredump**

Because in the simplest situation, I only have one detachment. The rules do not give permission to have units outside of a detachment, and do not provide rules to create a new detachment.

Further, while it is from a different edition, you could spawn gaunts even back when the rules only supported 1 detachment in the army.

For army building, not for playing the game.

And a ruling needs to make since in all situations, not just the simplistic ones

Nowhere.

its does pg 119, where you assign all detachments pre game.

new unit, mid game, no detachment/listbuilding rules apply

main issue with OP, is that it looks like he also wants the same unit to cast sacrifice twice...

**Hollismason**

No different units. On the same guy not doubling up.

Where does it say I have to follow the rules on one per army when the army is built at the beginning of the game is my question.

I neeeeed these portaglyphs

**Lungpickle**

Just one for the love of god just 1.

**Hollismason**

Nooooooooooooo.
