The White Scars gives all your Bikes Skilled Rider and +1 strength to HoW attacks. All units also get Hit and Run and can re-roll their run distance as long as they are only composed of White Scars models. This also means that their Dreadnoughts with 4 attacks base now have hit and run!

Hi there,
I'm a newbie.
The question is: I'm having a custom chapter, based on bikers, that is a successor to white scars i.e im gonna use White Scars chapter tactics. Can I use exact the same secondary rule - hit and run for all units or this is a rule for White Scars only and no successor chapters or other custom chapters using this can have it?

I know the codex is not out so I'm copying this 1d4chan.
I'm aware I can get flamed or mocked, but I have to ask.

For one thing, the codex IS out.

If you use white scars chapter tactics you must run your detachments exactly as you would a white scars detachment.

So yes, any chapter tactics rules that apply to WS will apply to your army

Oh, sorry bout that. I was totally unaware and Im gonna quick search it on amazon.
On the topic, ty very much for confirming this info!

How your army is painted does not impact the rules you use.

I am starting a homebrew chapter I plan on using as Iron Hands, Salamanders or Ultramarines if I like.

I've seen people using Blood Angels rules with Raven Guard painted models, and Chaos Marines using Space Wolf Rules.

So long as;
Models are equipped exactly as they are modeled (flamer guy has a flamer etc.)
It's clear and obvious what unit is what.
You explain and communicate the rules you are using.

I don't think anyone said anything about how his models are painted have an impact on what rules he can use.
