Dear comrades, I have a question about Detachment bonus. So if I field a lions blade Detachment, and get their bonus, but then I add sternhammer Detachment, and get also their bonus. So I understood their benefits could be models per faction, but is this right?

Only models in the detachment gain the detachment bonus.

Models in that detachment gain the buffs from that detachment, and everything has to fit in a detachment in your army

The Sternhammer and Lion's Blade Strike Force Command Benefits both refer to models in each respective Detachment.

The benefits do not cross over between the Detachments.

Fourthed.

Do keep in mind that there are a few odd exceptions to what qualifies as part of the detachment.

Dedicated Transports always count as part of the Role and Detachment of the unit which purchased them. Example: A Rhino purchased by a Lion's Blade Tactical Squad is a Lion's Blade Rhino.

Units in a Lion's Blade Detachment may be part of a Formation as well. Example: A Lion's Blade Tactical Squad is both a member of the Lion's Blade Detachment and the Battle Demi-Company Formation. So, besides the normal Tactical Squad Special Rules, members of that unit will have Company Support, Supreme Fire Discipline, Fire Discipline, and Objective Secured.
