Can I take a Command Squad if I take a named character? The character in question is Azahra Redth, who is described as a Librarian, but on my battlescribe it says it's an illegal army (for battle forged)?

Only if the named character is in the list of what unlocks a Command Squad.

It's likely that Battlescribe is mistaken. We don't spend as much time on Forgeworld units.

Does Forgeworld say he's an HQ? Does the Space Marine Codex say any HQ unlocks a Command Squad? If so, I'll update the file for you.

From the free rules on Forge World Badab Character Update. 'A single Honour Guard squad may be included in an army that includes Ahazra Redth – this unit does not count against the army’s HQ allowance.'

All the Badab characters unlock either Command Squad or Honour Guard. It states which on the profile of the character.

Ahh I see it now, thanks everyone
