When a codex is updated but the previous supplement that came out with the previous edition of the main codex does not get replaced do they both get invalidated?

For e.g Iyanden came out under 6th edition - is it still usable and workable?

Short answer: everything that isn't part of the current edition is out of date.

It's up to individuals what they'll allow from previous editions.

"'players must agree how they are going to select their armies, and if any restrictions apply to the number and type of models they can use."

This is an actual rule in the actual rulebook. Quit whining about how you can imagine someone's army touching you in a bad place and play by the actual rules.

When people ask, "What's the point in understanding everything?" they've just disqualified themselves from using questions and should disappear in a puff of paradox. But they don't understand and just continue existing, which are also their only two strategies for life.

Iyanden works just fine with the 6th edition Codex: Eldar. With the 7th edition Craftworlds codex it's not compatible.

It's then up your group/store/tournament/opponent to decide whether they'll allow an older codex to be used instead of the latest one.

The simpler way is to look in GW's web store. If there's no book there, it's not compatible anymore.

Iyanden isn't being sold anymore there, while both SMs' are (Raukaan and Sentinels of Terra) - which means they're compatible with 7th

I would support this method.

"'players must agree how they are going to select their armies, and if any restrictions apply to the number and type of models they can use."
