its okay but anyone packing plasma cannons is going to just krump your terminators so hard

also if any part of your army is unbound your army is totally unbound

Are you sure about that? I read that you can have as many detachments as you want, so long as you have the points for them. I also didn't think a few extra models would affect them.

An army is only Battleforged if all units are in Detachments, and an Unbound army loses all Command Bonuses, but not Formation special rules (Page 118). So you wouldn't get the rules from the Ravenwing or Deathwing Strike Force benefits (they are both Detachments, but not Formations), but you would get the rules from, say a Deathwing Redemption Force or Ravenwing Attack Squadron.

You can have as many Detachments as you want, subject to Tournament or other local agreements / restrictions.

Can I have 2 detachments and a formation?

Absolutely. In the rulebook, you can have as many detachments / formations as you like, in (almost) any combination.

As mentioned, some tournaments or groups limit this with house rules.

Can you have two of the same formation?

Yes...

Provided it does not contain any "Unique" units (such as named characters), or have some other restriction (I'm not aware of any Formation with such a restriction, but mention it for completeness).
